Recent Topics on the Regulatory Mechanism of Ecdysteroidogenesis by the Prothoracic Glands in Insects

Molting and metamorphosis are strictly regulated by steroid hormones known as ecdysteroids. It is now widely recognized that ecdysteroid biosynthesis (ecdysteroidogenesis) in the prothoracic gland (PG) is regulated by the tropic factor prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH).
