2017 journal article

Agonist-mediated assembly of the crustacean methyl farnesoate receptor

Scientific Reports, 7(1).

By: E. Kakaley  n, H. Wang n & G. LeBlanc n 

MeSH headings : Animals; Crustacea; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / metabolism; Gene Expression; Models, Biological; Nuclear Receptor Coactivators / chemistry; Nuclear Receptor Coactivators / genetics; Nuclear Receptor Coactivators / metabolism; Protein Binding; Protein Multimerization; Protein Subunits / agonists; Protein Subunits / chemistry; Protein Subunits / genetics
TL;DR: Results demonstrated that the Met subunit is highly dynamic in controlling the action of methyl farnesoate through temporal variation in its expression and availability for receptor assembly. (via Semantic Scholar)

2006 journal article

A candidate juvenoid hormone receptor cis-element in the Daphnia magna hb2 hemoglobin gene promoter

MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR ENDOCRINOLOGY, 247(1-2), 91–102.

By: T. Gorr *, C. Rider n, H. Wang n, A. Olmstead n & G. LeBlanc n 

author keywords: methyl farnesoate; juvenoid; crustacean; response element; sex determination
MeSH headings : Animals; Base Sequence; Cycloheximide / pharmacology; Daphnia / genetics; Daphnia / physiology; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / metabolism; Hemoglobins / biosynthesis; Hemoglobins / genetics; Hemoglobins / physiology; Juvenile Hormones / metabolism; Molecular Sequence Data; Promoter Regions, Genetic; Pyridines / metabolism; RNA, Messenger / biosynthesis; Receptors, Cytoplasmic and Nuclear / genetics; Receptors, Cytoplasmic and Nuclear / metabolism; Response Elements; Signal Transduction
TL;DR: Induction of hb2 by juvenoids was not dependent upon the synthesis of secondary transcription factors that bound the JRE but was likely due to activation of the gene directly by the juvenoid-receptor complex. (via Semantic Scholar)

2005 journal article

The screening of chemicals for juvenoid-related endocrine activity using the water flea Daphnia magna

AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY, 74(3), 193–204.

By: H. Wang n, A. Olmstead n, H. Li n & G. LeBlanc n 

author keywords: endocrine disruptors; screening; juvenoids; sex determination
MeSH headings : Animals; Benzhydryl Compounds; Daphnia / drug effects; Daphnia / metabolism; Ecdysteroids / metabolism; Ecdysteroids / pharmacology; Endocrine System / drug effects; Endpoint Determination / methods; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / pharmacology; Female; Juvenile Hormones / agonists; Juvenile Hormones / antagonists & inhibitors; Juvenile Hormones / metabolism; Male; Methoprene / pharmacology; Pesticides / toxicity; Phenols / toxicity; Phytol / pharmacology; Pyridines / pharmacology; Reproducibility of Results; Sex Differentiation / drug effects; Toxicity Tests / methods; Tretinoin / pharmacology; United States; United States Environmental Protection Agency
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that an in vivo assay with a crustacean species customarily employed in toxicity testing can be used to effectively screen chemicals for juvenoid-modulating activity. (via Semantic Scholar)
