## Abstract In the larval brain of dipteran insects, there are two medial and three lateral groups of neurons innervating the ring gland. One lateral group extends fibers to the corpus allatum. After metamorphosis, a large cluster of the medial group in the pars intercerebralis and two lateral grou
Histological and immunohistochemical observations 5howed that four pairs of neurosecretory A cells coincide with the bombyxin neuron which produces the 4K-prothoracicotropic hormone (4K-PTTH). The A cells are characterized by a large cytoplasmic vacuole containing homogeneous granular materials, but
## Abstract The adipokinetic cells are neuronβlike unipolar cells, the cell bodies and cell processes of which are intermingled within the glandular part of the corpus cardiacum. In __Schistocerca gregaria__, they produce two adipokinetic hormones, AKHβI and βII, whereas in __Locusta migratoria__ a
In this work the maximal operational hydrodynamic conditions (agitation and aeration rate) that cause no adverse effect in Sf-9 cells growth in SF900II serumfree medium were determined. Shear stresses higher than 1 N m -2 and aeration rates higher than 0.04 vvm affect cell growth and when these cond
A model for immunoglobulin G (IgG) production in the baculovirus-insect cell system was developed that incorporates polypeptide synthesis, oligomer assembly, protein aggregation, and protein secretion. In addition, the capacity of a chaperone to protect heavy and light chain polypeptides from protei
