The synthesis and secretion of vitellogenin by the ovary of Rhodnius prolixus was investigated. Using whole ovary or epithelial cells isolated from follicles of different sizes, it is shown that the follicle cells are a site of synthesis for this protein in the ovary. The ovaries or follicle cells were incubated in vitro with [(35)S]-methionine or (32)Pi and the secretion of newly synthesized o...

BACKGROUND Hematophagous insects digest large amounts of host hemoglobin and release heme inside their guts. In Rhodnius prolixus, hemoglobin-derived heme is detoxified by biomineralization, forming hemozoin (Hz). Recently, the involvement of the R. prolixus perimicrovillar membranes in Hz formation was demonstrated. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Hz formation activity of an alpha-glucosidase...

Haematophagous insects can ingest large quantities of blood in a single meal and eliminate high volumes of urine in the next few hours. This rise in diuresis is possible because the excretory activity of the Malpighian tubules is facilitated by an increase in haemolymph circulation as a result of intensification of aorta contractions combined with an increase of the anterior midgut peristaltic ...

A thrombin-specific inhibitor with an apparent molecular mass of 11 kDa has been purified from the insect Rhodnius prolixus. Amino-terminal protein sequence analysis allowed the molecular cloning of the corresponding cDNA. The open reading frame codes for a protein of about 103 amino acid residues and displays an internal sequence homology of residues 6-48 with residues 57-101 indicating a two-...

It is well known that many insects, and especially many Orthoptera, are capable of regenerating autotomized and amputated legs (Godelmann, 1901; Bordage, 1905; Megusar, 1910; Friedrich, 1930). Very little is known, however, about those factors governing regeneration, those initiating the excessive growth in regeneration, and those suppressing growth when the regenerated leg has reached a normal...

Triatomine assassin bugs comprise hematophagous insect vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi , the causative agent Chagas disease. Although microbiome these species has been investigated to some extent, only one virus infecting Triatoma infestans identified date. Here, we describe for first time seven (+) single-strand RNA viruses (RpV1-7) Rhodnius prolixus a primary vector disease in Central and South ...
