RNAi studies reveal a conserved role for RXR in molting in the cockroach Blattella germanica.

• David T. Martin, Oscar Maestro, Josefa Cruz, Daniel Mané-Padrós, Xavier Belles
• Journal of insect physiology
• 2006

Ecdysteroids play a major role during developmental growth in insects. The more active form of these hormones, 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), acts upon binding to its heterodimeric receptor, formed by the… (More)

Functions of the ecdysone receptor isoform-A in the hemimetabolous insect Blattella germanica revealed by systemic RNAi in vivo.

• Josefa Cruz, Daniel Mané-Padrós, Xavier Belles, David T. Martin
• Developmental biology
• 2006

The molecular basis of ecdysteroid function during development has been analyzed in detail in holometabolous insects, especially in Drosophila melanogaster, but rarely in hemimetabolous. Using the… (More)

The nuclear hormone receptor BgE75 links molting and developmental progression in the direct-developing insect Blattella germanica.

• Daniel Mané-Padrós, Josefa Cruz, Lluïsa Vilaplana, Nuria Pascual, Xavier Belles, David T. Martin
• Developmental biology
• 2008

Ecdysteroid hormones regulate key developmental processes throughout the life cycle of insects. 20-Hydroxyecdysone (20E) acts upon binding to a heterodimeric receptor formed by the nuclear receptors… (More)

Nuclear receptor BgFTZ-F1 regulates molting and the timing of ecdysteroid production during nymphal development in the hemimetabolous insect Blattella germanica.

• Josefa Cruz, C. Nieva, Daniel Mané-Padrós, David T. Martin, Xavier Belles
• Developmental dynamics : an official publication…
• 2008

Postembryonic development of holometabolous and hemimetabolous insects occurs through successive molts triggered by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E). The molecular action of 20E has been extensively studied… (More)

A Critical Role of the Nuclear Receptor HR3 in Regulation of Gonadotrophic Cycles of the Mosquito Aedes aegypti

• Daniel Mané-Padrós, Josefa Cruz, Andrew Hua an Cheng, Alexander S. Raikhel
• PloS one
• 2012

The orphan nuclear receptor HR3 is essential for developmental switches during insect development and metamorphosis regulated by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E). Reproduction of female mosquitoes of the… (More)

Distinct roles of isoforms of the heme-liganded nuclear receptor E75, an insect ortholog of the vertebrate Rev-erb, in mosquito reproduction

• Josefa Cruz, Daniel Mané-Padrós, Zhen Zou, Alexander S. Raikhel
• Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology
• 2012

Mosquitoes are adapted to using vertebrate blood as a nutrient source to promote egg development and as a consequence serve as disease vectors. Blood-meal activated reproductive events in female… (More)

The hormonal pathway controlling cell death during metamorphosis in a hemimetabolous insect.

• Daniel Mané-Padrós, Josefa Cruz, +4 authors David T. Martin
• Developmental biology
• 2010

Metamorphosis in holometabolous insects is mainly based on the destruction of larval tissues. Intensive research in Drosophila melanogaster, a model of holometabolan metamorphosis, has shown that the… (More)

Nuclear receptor HR4 plays an essential role in the ecdysteroid-triggered gene cascade in the development of the hemimetabolous insect <ce:italic>Blattella germanica</ce:italic>

• Daniel Mané-Padrós, Ferran Borràs-Castells, Xavier Belles, David T. Martin
• Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology
• 2012

Despite the differences in the developmental strategies between hemimetabolous and holometabolous insects, a common feature between both types of development is that periodic pulses of the steroid… (More)
