ADIPOKINETIC HORMONE RECEPTOR MEDIATES LIPID MOBILIZATION TO REGULATE STARVATION RESISTANCE IN THE BROWN PLANTHOPPER, NILAPARVATA LUGENS

Adipokinetic Hormone Receptor Mediates Lipid Mobilization to Regulate Starvation Resistance in the Brown Planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens

Lipid storage must be efficiently mobilized to sustain the energy demands during processes of exercise or starvation.In insects, adipokinetic hormone (AKH) and brummer lipase are well-known regulators of lipid mobilization.We recently demonstrated that brummer-dependent lipolysis regulates starvation resistance in the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata
