Adaptogen
Adaptogens or adaptogenic substances are used in herbal medicine for the claimed stabilization of physiological processes and promotion of homeostasis.

Arthropod
An arthropod (from Greek ἄρθρον arthron, "joint" and πούς pous, "foot") is an invertebrate animal having an exoskeleton (external skeleton), a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages.

Chromosome
A chromosome (from Ancient Greek: χρωμόσωμα, chromosoma, chroma means colour, soma means body) is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism.

Cordyceps
Cordyceps is a genus of ascomycete fungi (sac fungi) that includes about 400 species.

Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila melanogaster is a species of fly (the taxonomic order Diptera) in the family Drosophilidae.

Ecdysis
Ecdysis is the moulting of the cuticle in many invertebrates of the clade Ecdysozoa.
New!!: Ecdysone and Ecdysis · See more »
Ecdysone receptor
The ecdysone receptor is a nuclear receptor found in arthropods, where it controls development and contributes to other processes such as reproduction.
New!!: Ecdysone and Ecdysone receptor · See more »
Ecdysteroid
Ecdysteroids are arthropod steroid hormones that are mainly responsible for molting, development and, to a lesser extent, reproduction; examples of ecdysteroids include ecdysone, ecdysterone, turkesterone and 20-hydroxyecdysone.

Herbivore
A herbivore is an animal anatomically and physiologically adapted to eating plant material, for example foliage, for the main component of its diet.
New!!: Ecdysone and Herbivore · See more »
Hormone
A hormone (from the Greek participle “ὁρμῶ”, "to set in motion, urge on") is any member of a class of signaling molecules produced by glands in multicellular organisms that are transported by the circulatory system to target distant organs to regulate physiology and behaviour.

Medicine
Medicine is the science and practice of the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
New!!: Ecdysone and Medicine · See more »
Neural stem cell
Neural stem cells (NSCs) are self-renewing, multipotent cells that generate the neurons and glia of the nervous system of all animals during embryonic development.
New!!: Ecdysone and Neural stem cell · See more »
Phylum
In biology, a phylum (plural: phyla) is a level of classification or taxonomic rank below Kingdom and above Class.
New!!: Ecdysone and Phylum · See more »
Phytoecdysteroid
Phytoecdysteroids are plant-derived ecdysteroids.
New!!: Ecdysone and Phytoecdysteroid · See more »
Polytene chromosome
Polytene chromosomes are large chromosomes which have thousands of DNA strands.
New!!: Ecdysone and Polytene chromosome · See more »
Prothoracic gland
The prothoracic glands are either of a pair of endocrine glands located in the prothorax of certain insects that regulate molting.

Prothoracicotropic hormone
Prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) was the first insect hormone to be discovered.
New!!: Ecdysone and Prothoracicotropic hormone · See more »
Steroid
A steroid is a biologically active organic compound with four rings arranged in a specific molecular configuration.

Tebufenozide
Tebufenozide is an insecticide that acts as a molting hormone.
New!!: Ecdysone and Tebufenozide · See more »
Toxin
A toxin (from toxikon) is a poisonous substance produced within living cells or organisms; synthetic toxicants created by artificial processes are thus excluded.
New!!: Ecdysone and Toxin · See more »
20-Hydroxyecdysone
20-Hydroxyecdysone (ecdysterone or 20E) is a naturally occurring ecdysteroid hormone which controls the ecdysis (moulting) and metamorphosis of arthropods.
