Cell Growth Inhibitor Factor in Hemolymph of Dipetalogaster maximus

Cell growth inhibitor factor in hemolymph of Dipetalogaster maximus.

Metabolic post-feeding changes in fat body and hemolymph of Dipetalogaster maximus (Hemiptera: Reduviidae).

Lipids and glycogen in fat body as well as the modifications in the wet weight of this organ were evaluated in an unfed insect, Dipetalogaster maximus, on day 5 after adult ecdysis (time 0) and during a 30-day period after ingestion of blood meal, total lipids, high density lipophorin (HDLp), carbohydrates, total proteins and uric acid were determined in the hemolymph during the same period. Fa...

Dipetalogaster maxima or D. maximus as a xenodiagnostic agent.

Schofield 18 has pointed out that under article 30 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature maximus becomes maxima since “gaster” is feminine. However the standard work on triatomine taxonomy still refers to the species as D. maximus n . Whatever its species name, it refers to the single member of the genus Dipetalogaster characterised by a pleated abdômen and a restricted geographi...

CYTOKINE AND GROWTH FACTOR MODULATION OF CELL CYCLE EVENTS IN HUMAN MELANOMA CELL LINES

Cytokines influence cell cycle events, which in some but not all instances can be associated with melanoma progression. Analysis of the G0/G 1 and S phase fractions of the cell cycle was used to assay the proliferative or inhibitory activity of cytokines against ten human melanoma cell lines, including pairs of cell lines derived from primary and metastatic tissue of individual patients. Cy...
