TLDR
Injection of potassium cyanide, hydroxylamine, or thiosemicarbazide to newly emerged mealworm beetles inhibits regional sclerotization of the cuticle, whereas juvenile hormone mimics do not interfere with this process.

The amino-acid composition of cuticles from Tenebrio molitor with special reference to the action of juvenile hormone

TL;DR: Cuticles from second pupae produced by animals treated with juvenile hormone were indistinguishable from normal pupal cuticles, but there were differences between these cuticles and the pupal-like cuticles from animals which had been treated with actinomycin D.

Functional Aspects of Cell Response to Heat Shock

TL;DR: This chapter reviews a reactive increase in cell resistance, with emphasis on cell response to heat shock (HS), and a temporarily induced synthesis of a specific set of proteins—heat shock proteins (HSP) or, more precisely, stress proteins (SP), which are responsible for enhanced cell stability.
Book ChapterDOI

The Chemistry and Physiology of Juvenoids

TL;DR: This most extensive part of the book deals with compounds generally known as juvenile hormone analogues or juvenile hormone mimics, which encompass a wide range of mainly synthetic compounds with a relatively smaller amount of natural products isolated from plants and animals.
Book ChapterDOI

Chemistry and Physiology of Ecdysoids

TL;DR: Of great importance for the chemistry of moulting hormones was the observation that the moults process is controlled by a factor present in the prothoracic glands (Fujkuda [68–70).

Juvenile hormone: identification of an active compound from balsam fir.

TL;DR: A sesquiterpenoid ester with high juvenile hormone activity for Pyrrhocoris apterus was isolated from balsam fir, Abies balsamea (L.) Miller, and identified as the methyl ester of todomatuic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Juvenile hormone: activity of natural and synthetic synergists.

TL;DR: A group of nonsesquiterpenoid compounds currently used commercially as insecticide synergists possesses a high order of juvenile hormone activity and species specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical structure and juvenile hormone activity: Comparative tests on Rhodnius prolixus

TL;DR: The hypothesis that the juvenile hormone influences the gene-controlled enzyme system within the cells by regulating permeability relations in cellular membranes is discussed in the light of the earlier hypothesis.

Die Identifizierung zweier im Tenebriokot und in Hefe vorkommender Substanzen mit Juvenilhormonwirkung

TL;DR: Aus Hefe und Tenebriokot wurde durch chromatographische Reinigung eine Fraktion mit starker Juvenilhormonwirkung erhalten as mentioned in this paper.
