Autophagy, apoptosis, and ecdysis-related gene expression in the silk gland of the silkworm (Bombyx mori) during metamorphosis

2010-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Degeneration of larval-specific tissues during insect metamorphosis has been suggested to be the result of apoptosis and autophagy and is triggered by ecdysteroids. However, the relationship between autophagy and apoptosis pathways and the mechanism of regulation by ecdysteroids remain to be elucidated. This study examined the events of autophagy, apoptosis, and the expression of ecdysis-related genes in the silk...
