1997 journal article

Improved conditions for culture of biosynthetically active cockroach corpora allata

IN VITRO CELLULAR & DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY-ANIMAL, 33(6), 452–458.

Contributors: G. Holbrook n, A. Chiang* & C. Schal n

MeSH headings : Animals; Cockroaches / cytology; Cockroaches / metabolism; Corpora Allata / cytology; Corpora Allata / drug effects; Corpora Allata / metabolism; Culture Media / pharmacology; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Female; Glucose / pharmacology; Juvenile Hormones / biosynthesis; Male; Organ Culture Techniques / methods; Trehalose / pharmacology
TL;DR: It is shown that L-15B, a medium widely used in arthropod tissue culture, is superior to TC199 for both short- and long-term culture of cockroach corpora allata, and more appropriate to use L- 15B than TC 199 for short-term in vitro assays of juvenile hormone biosynthesis and for extended corporaAllata culture.

1997 journal article

Relative significance of direct ingestion and adult-mediated translocation of bait to German cockroach (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae) nymphs

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 90(5), 1073–1079.

By: R. Kopanic n & C. Schal n

Contributors: R. Kopanic n & C. Schal n

author keywords: Blattella germanica; coprophagy; horizontal toxicant transfer; bait
TL;DR: It is concluded that horizontal toxicant transfer is a key factor in suppression of cockroach pest populations, especially 1st instars, which forage infrequently and are least vulnerable to direct contact with insecticides, are most susceptible to this type of insecticide translocation.

1997 journal article

Epithelial injury induced by exposure to residual oil fly-ash particles: Role of reactive oxygen species?

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF RESPIRATORY CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, 17(5), 625–633.

By: J. Dye n, K. Adler n, J. Richards n & K. Dreher n

MeSH headings : Air Pollution; Animals; Cell Line; Epithelial Cells / drug effects; Epithelial Cells / metabolism; Epithelial Cells / pathology; Industrial Oils / toxicity; Oxidative Stress; Rats; Reactive Oxygen Species / metabolism; Trachea / drug effects; Trachea / pathology
TL;DR: In vitro findings suggest that ROFA-induced RTE cell injury may be mediated by hydroxyl-radical-like reactive oxygen species (i.e., species scavenged by DMTU) that are generated via non-nitric oxide pathways. (via Semantic Scholar)

1997 journal article

Effect of Osmotic Shock on Protein Synthesis of Oyster Hemocytes In Vitro

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 116(1), 43–49.

By: C. Tirard n, R. Grossfeld n, J. Levine n & S. Kennedy-Stoskopf n

author keywords: hemocytes; osmotic; oysters; salinity; stress proteins
TL;DR: In vitro studies conducted to evaluate the effect of changes in salinity on protein synthesis of oyster hemocytes found that preferential synthesis of these proteins may represent an adaptation to preserve or restore oyster cell functions under adverse conditions. (via Semantic Scholar)

Contributors: C. Schal n, G. Holbrook n, J. Bachmann n & V. Sevala n

author keywords: cockroach; corpora allata; juvenile hormone; JH analog; food intake; ovary; Blattella germanica
TL;DR: Observations suggest that JH might regulate sexual receptivity in females indirectly through inhibition of signals associated with copulation even when titers of JH are permissive for receptivity. (via Semantic Scholar)
