Insecticide Resistance Comes of Age
A. W. A. BROWN It is now 21 years since DDT -resistant house flies were first discovered in northern Sweden, and since the report of Wilson and Gahan that a DDT -resistant strain could be produced by laboratory selection at Orlando. Although the resistance of the San Jose scale to lime-sulfur was detected by Melander in Washington state nearly 60 years ago, the resistance problem as we know it ...
متن کاملInsecticide resistance in the bed bug comes with a cost
Adaptation to new environmental stress is often associated with an alteration of one or more life history parameters. Insecticide resistant populations of insects often have reduced fitness relative to susceptible populations in insecticide free environments. Our previous work showed that three populations of bed bugs, Cimex lectularius L., evolved significantly increased levels of resistance t...
متن کاملGlyceroneogenesis comes of age.
Glyceroneogenesis is a generally ignored metabolic pathway that occurs in adipose tissues and liver of mammalian species. This short review highlights a series of recent discoveries showing that glyceroneogenesis is important in lipid homeostasis.
متن کاملImmunosenescence comes of age
Introduction Ageing of the immune system (immunosenescence) contributes to the increased susceptibility of the elderly to infectious disease and to the poor outcome of vaccination. Defence against pathogens is compromised mainly because of changes in adaptive immunity mediated by T and B lymphocytes; however, all components of the immune system are affected (Fig 1). Dissecting the crucial alter...
متن کاملMethylglyoxal Comes of AGE
The posttranslational modification of proteins by methylglyoxal, a highly reactive compound derived from glycolysis, may contribute to aging, diabetes, and other disorders. In this issue of Cell, Brownlee and colleagues (Yao et al., 2006) demonstrate a specific mechanism by which methylglyoxal modifies a transcriptional corepressor to enhance gene expression.
