This review focuses on neuropeptides and peptide hormones, the largest and most diverse
class of neuroactive substances, known in Drosophila and other animals to play roles in …

All nervous systems are subject to neuromodulation. Neuromodulators can be delivered as
local hormones, as cotransmitters in projection neurons, and through the general circulation …

The rapid expansion in shrimp farming comes with problems such as inadequate culture
technology, disease outbreak, water pollution and other environmental degradation‐related …

As important aquaculture species worldwide, shrimps and crabs are thermophilic animals
with a feeble thermoregulation ability. Changes in environmental factors are the main …

Early studies recognizing the importance of the decapod eyestalk in the endocrine
regulation of crustacean physiology—molting, metabolism, reproduction, osmotic balance …

The development of aquaculture is closely related to human life. Crustaceans play essential
roles in aquaculture. However, the cultivation of crustaceans has been plagued by various …

Vitellogenesis in crustaceans is an energy-consuming process. Though the underlying
mechanisms of ovarian maturation in decapod Crustacea are still unclear, evidence …

A pair of Y-organs (YOs) are the molting glands of decapod crustaceans. They synthesize
and secrete steroid molting hormones (ecdysteroids) and their activity is controlled by …

Feed restriction in fish and crustaceans is gaining interest due to its unusual acceleration of
growth after a feed deprivation period. This phenomenon, known as compensatory growth …

Endocrine control of molting in decapod crustaceans involves the eyestalk neurosecretory
center (X-organ/sinus gland complex), regenerating limbs, and a pair of Y-organs (YOs), as …
