“…In the fat body, JH binds to its receptor Methoprene‐tolerant (Met), and its paralog germ cell‐expressed basic helix‐loop‐helix‐PAS (Gce), to activate early JH‐response gene Krüppel‐homolog 1 ( Kr‐h1 ) which encodes a key transcription factor that mediates the JH signaling pathway (Jindra et al ., ; Li et al ., ). JH signaling pathway affects Vg synthesis in the fat body and has been proven in many insects, such as Drosophila melanogaster (Riddiford, ), Aedes aegypti (Raikhel et al ., ), Tribolium castaneum (Parthasarathy et al ., ), Pyrrhocoris apterus (Smykal et al ., ), Locusta migratoria (Song et al ., ), Bactrocera dorsalis (Yue et al ., ), and so on. Insulin‐like peptides, produced in insulin‐producing cells ( ilp2 , ilp3 and ilp5 ) or fat body ( ilp6 ), are released into the hemolymph to regulate JH synthesis in the CA and oogenesis (Tatar et al ., ; Tu et al ., ; Bai et al ., ; Gancz & Gilboa, ; Rauschenbach et al ., ).…”
