Characterization of Long Non-Coding RNAs in the Bollworm, Helicoverpa zea, and Their Possible Role in Cry1Ac-Resistance
INSECTS, 13(1).
author keywords: long non-coding RNAs; Helicoverpa zea; Bt-resistance; Cry1Ac resistance; RNA-seq; lncRNA; bollworms; gene regulation
TL;DR:
Characterization of non-coding genetic mechanisms in Helicoverpa zea will improve the understanding of the genomic evolution of insect resistance, improve the identification of specific regulators of coding genes in general, and is the first step for potentially targeting these regulators for pest control and resistance management.

Tick Ecdysteroid Hormone, Global Microbiota/Rickettsia Signaling in the Ovary versus Carcass during Vitellogenesis in Part-Fed (Virgin) American Dog Ticks, Dermacentor variabilis
MICROORGANISMS, 9(6).
author keywords: Dermacentor variabilis; ecdysteroid; Rickettsia sp; Francisella sp; qPCR; microbiota
TL;DR:
Injections of physiological levels of the tick hormone, 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), into part-fed (virgin) adult females of the American dog tick, Dermacentor variabilis, attached to the host caused a reduction in density of Rickettsia montanensis in the carcass and an increase in the ovaries compared to buffer-injected controls.

author keywords: Long non-coding RNA; DEET; Fipronil; Xenobiotic metabolism; Environmental chemicals; Cytochrome P450
MeSH headings : DEET; Hepatocytes; Humans; Insect Repellents; Pyrazoles; RNA, Long Noncoding
TL;DR:
The impact of two environmental chemicals used in and around homes, the insect repellent DEET and the phenylpyrazole insecticide fipronil, and the role of altered lncRNAs associated with xenobiotic induction, human diseases and chemical mixtures is discussed.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES, 18(10).
author keywords: DEET; fipronil; long non-coding RNA; lncRNA; primary liver cells; epigenetics; RNA-Seq; transcriptomics; Zika virus; human hepatocytes
MeSH headings : Cells, Cultured; DEET / pharmacology; Epigenomics / methods; Hepatocytes / drug effects; Hepatocytes / metabolism; Humans; Pyrazoles / pharmacology; RNA, Long Noncoding / genetics; Zika Virus / genetics
TL;DR:
This initial analysis links several of the dysregulated lncRNAs to processes and pathways critical to proper cellular function, such as the innate and adaptive immune response and the p53 signaling pathway.

Infrared light detection by the hailer's organ of adult american dog ticks, Dermacentor variabilis (Ixodida: Ixodidae)
TICKS AND TICK-BORNE DISEASES, 8(5), 764–771.
author keywords: American dog tick; Dermacentor variabilis; Haller's organ; Infrared; TRPA1; Light
MeSH headings : Animals; Dermacentor / physiology; Dermacentor / ultrastructure; Extremities; Infrared Rays; Phototaxis
TL;DR:
The ability of ticks to use IR for host finding is consistent with their obligatory hematophagy and has practical applications in tick trapping and the development of new repellents.

Tick Haller's Organ, a New Paradigm for Arthropod Olfaction: How Ticks Differ from Insects
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES, 18(7).
author keywords: American dog tick; Dermacentor variabilis; tick; Haller's organ; olfaction; gustation; chemoreception; odorant binding proteins; GPCR; DEET; transcriptome
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animal Structures / anatomy & histology; Animal Structures / physiology; Animals; Behavior, Animal; Insect Proteins / chemistry; Insect Proteins / genetics; Insect Proteins / metabolism; Male; Phylogeny; RNA, Messenger / genetics; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Sensory Receptor Cells / metabolism; Sequence Analysis, RNA; Smell / genetics; Taste; Ticks / anatomy & histology; Ticks / physiology; Transcriptome / genetics
TL;DR:
Data are presented for the first time of the potential hormonal regulation of tick chemosensation; behavioral assays confirmed the role of the Haller’s organ in N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) repellency but showed no role for the Hallers organ in host attachment.
