Mode of Action of Farnesol, the “Noble Unknown” in Particular in Ca(2+) Homeostasis, and Its Juvenile Hormone-Esters in Evolutionary Retrospect
Farnesol, the sesquiterpenoid precursor of insect juvenile hormones (JH) that itself has JH activity, existed already long before animals and their hormones came into being. Although it is omnipresent in all eukaryotes, this molecule remains a “noble unknown” in cell physiology. It is neither docume...
