Five Neuropeptide Ligands Meet One Receptor: How Does This Tally? A Structure-Activity Relationship Study Using Adipokinetic Bioassays With the Sphingid Moth, Hippotion eson
Adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) play a major role in mobilizing stored energy metabolites during energetic demand in insects. We showed previously (i) the sphingid moth Hippotion eson synthesizes the highest number of AKHs ever recorded, viz. five, in its corpus cardiacum: two octa- (Hipes-AKH-I and II...
