This paper is focused on eicosanoid signaling in insect immunology. We begin with
eicosanoid biosynthesis through the actions of phospholipase A2, responsible for …

The study of the epitranscriptome has thus far focused largely on mRNA methylation. Recent
human genetics studies suggest that methylation of ribosomal RNA also contributes to brain …

Eicosanoids play crucial roles in mediating insect immune responses. In vertebrates,
phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2) releases arachidonic acid (AA) from phospholipids (PLs) for …

Feeding a high-fat diet (HFD) has been shown to alter phenotypic and metabolic parameters
in Drosophila melanogaster. However, the impact of fat quantity and quality remains …

Entomopathogenic nematodes have been proposed as biological agents for the control of
Drosophila suzukii, an invasive pest of small-stone and soft-skinned fruits. Larvae of the fly …

Eicosanoids are a class of molecules derived from C20 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)
that play a vital role in mammalian and insect biological systems, including development …

Several insect innate immune mechanisms are activated in response to infection by
entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). In this review, we focus on the coagulation of …

Prostaglandins (PGs) mediate physiological processes of insects as well as mammals.
Prostaglandin I 2 (PGI 2) is a relatively well-known eicosanoid with potent hormone-like …

Several endocrine signals mediate mosquito egg development, including 20-
hydroxyecdysone (20E). This study reports on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) as an additional, but …

Several prostaglandins (PGs) have been identified in different insect species. However, their
biosynthesis and physiological roles in insects remain unclear. PGD 2 is synthesized by …
