Prostaglandin catabolism in <i>Spodoptera exigua</i> , a lepidopteran insect

2020-07-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Several prostaglandins (PGs) and PG-synthesizing enzymes have been identified from insects. PGs can mediate cellular and humoral immune responses. However, uncontrolled and prolonged immune responses might have adverse effects on survival. PG catabolism in insects has not been reported. Here, using a transcriptomic analysis, we predicted two PG-degrading enzymes, PG dehydrogenase ( SePGDH ) an...
