The combined results suggest that cAMP is involved in regulation of protein synthesis in C. sapidus Y-organs and the possibility of cross-talk between cAMP and other cellular signaling pathways in Y-organ proteins is investigated.
Hormonal Control of Molting in Decapod Crustacea

Experiments demonstrate the presence of a molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH) in the sinus glands of juvenile lobsters, and data indicate that there must be another factor that ultimately regulates the circulating levels of the molting hormone.

Ecdysteroid biosynthesis in the crustacean Y-organ and control by an eyestalk neuropeptide
- Biology

Y-organs are discussed as useful models for study of steroidogenesis generally in animals at the cellular and molecular levels and results of in vitro experiments with 125I-labeled HDL suggest that the HDL-cholesterol complex is taken into Y-organ cells mediated by receptors for the HDL apoprotein.
