## Abstract Measurements of Ca^2+^ influx in Furaβ2/AM loaded steroidogenic cells (prothoracic glands; PGs) of the silkworm, __Bombyx mori__ showed that application of the neuropeptide prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) can increase the intracellular [Ca^2+^]~i~. This PTTHβmediated Ca^2+^ influx in
Two molecular forms of juvenile hormone binding proteins were identified in the larval hemolymph of Bombyx mori by photoaffinity labeling. One form having an M r of 33 kDa was present constantly in the hemolymph of the third to the fifth instar larvae while the other form having an M r of 35 kDa was
## Abstract Application of the tetradecapeptide mastoparan to the prothoracic glands (PGs) of the tobacco hornworm, __Manduca sexta__, and the silkworm, __Bombyx mori__, resulted in increases in intracellular Ca^2+^ ([Ca^2+^]~i~). In __M. sexta__, Gi proteins are involved in the mastoparanβstimulat
## Abstract Changes in the steroidogenic competence of prothoracic glands and their modulation by juvenile hormone (JH) were examined in recessive trimolters(__rt__)of the silkworm, __Bombyx mori__. These __rt__ mutants have four larval instars rather than the five larval instars of normal silkworm
