The effects of 20-hydroxyecdysone on the differentiation in vitro of cells from the eye imaginal disc from Drosophila melanogaster.

Abstract excerpt

We have examined the effects of the insect ecdysteroid, 20-hydroxyecdysone, on the differentiation of neuronal and non-neuronal elements in the developing adult visual system, using in vitro methods in Drosophila. We examined the differentiation of early neuronal markers in the presence and absence of 1 microgram/ml 20-hydroxyecdysone. Immunoreactivity to 22C10, a marker of an early neuronal antigen, as well as...
