Bombyxin (Bombyx Insulin-Like Peptide) Increases the Respiration Rate Through Facilitation of Carbohydrate Catabolism in Bombyx mori
Bombyxin-II, an insulin-like peptide of the silkmoth Bombyx mori, has been shown to reduce both the trehalose concentration in the hemolymph and the glycogen content in some tissues of B. mori larvae. However, little is known about how these storage carbohydrates are utilized. To address this questi...
