Dormancy is evolutionarily widespread and can take many forms, including diapause, dauer
formation, estivation, and hibernation. Each type of dormancy is characterized by distinct …

Aging is the leading risk factor of human chronic diseases. Understanding of aging process
and mechanisms facilitates drug development and the prevention of aging-related diseases …

Diapause is an endogenously regulated dormant state that allows insects and other animals
to survive seasons of inimical conditions. Diapause is characterized by altered gene …

Simple Summary Diapause is a seasonal adaptation to stress in insects, including in
Lepidoptera. Juvenile hormone (JH) is the key factor affecting larval diapause. The diapause …

BACKGROUND Reproductive diapause serves as a valuable strategy enabling insects to
survive unfavorable seasonal conditions. However, forcing insects into diapause when the …

Despite the increasing number of studies concerning insect immunity, Lutzomyia longipalpis
immune responses in the presence of Leishmania infantum chagasi infection has not been …

Temperate-zone insects typically survive winter by entering diapause. Although many
aspects of insect diapause have been studied, the underlying molecular mechanism of …

Histone acetylation, a crucial epigenetic mechanism, has been suggested to play a role in
diapause regulation, but this has not been confirmed through gene loss-of-function studies …

The onion maggot, Delia antiqua, is a worldwide subterranean pest and can enter diapause
during the summer and winter seasons. The molecular regulation of the ontogenesis …

Much progress has been made in understanding the environmental and hormonal systems
regulating winter diapause. However, transcriptional regulation of summer diapause is still …
