Crustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone Family: Old Paradigms and New Perspectives1
SYNOPSIS. I present an overview of recent research on the isolation and characterization of members of the crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) neuropeptide family. Members of this arthropod-specific family include CHH, molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH), vitellogenesis-inhibiting hormone (VIH), and mandibular organ-inhibiting hormone (MOIH). There are two subfamilies of this neuropeptide group, b...
متن کاملComparative genomic analysis of crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) neuropeptide genes across diverse crustacean
Recent studies on bioactive peptides have shed light on the Background: importance of these compounds in regulating a multitude of physiological, behavioral and biological processes in animals. Specifically, the neuropeptides of the crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) superfamily is known to control a number of important functions ranging from energy metabolism, molting, osmoregulation to re...
متن کاملHigh-definition de novo sequencing of crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH)-family neuropeptides.
A complete understanding of the biological functions of large signaling peptides (>4 kDa) requires comprehensive characterization of their amino acid sequences and post-translational modifications, which presents significant analytical challenges. In the past decade, there has been great success with mass spectrometry-based de novo sequencing of small neuropeptides. However, these approaches ar...
متن کاملCHHBP: a newly identified receptor of crustacean hyperglycemic hormone.
Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) is a neurohormone found only in arthropods that plays a pivotal role in the regulation of hemolymph glucose levels, molting and stress responses. Although it was determined that a membrane guanylyl cyclase (GC) acts as the CHH receptor in the Y-organ during ecdysteroidogenesis, the identity of the CHH receptor in the hepatopancreas has not been established...
متن کاملCrustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone (cHH) as a Modulator of Aggression in Crustacean Decapods
Biogenic amines, particularly serotonin, are recognised to play an important role in controlling the aggression of invertebrates, whereas the effect of neurohormones is still underexplored. The crustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone (cHH) is a multifunctional member of the eyestalk neuropeptide family. We expect that this neuropeptide influences aggression either directly, by controlling its expressi...
