The effects of 20-hydroxyecdysone and juvenile hormone III on tick cells

Kurtti, Timothy J., Munderloh, Ulrike G.·1983·The Journal of Parasitology

Abstract

Two cell lines isolated from Rhipicephalus appendiculatus ( RAE 25) and Anocentor (= Dermacentor) nitens (ANE 58) responded to the invertebrate hormones 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE) and juvenile hormone III (JH III) in vitro. In the presence of 0.2 or 2 nMolar 20-HE, the cells of the continuous line RAE 25 attached to the culture substrate at a rate of 9% per hr for the first 8 hr, as did cells in growth medium. Twenty or 200 nMolar of 20-HE reduced the rate of cell attachment to 6% per hr, and in the higher hormone concentration the cells ceased to attach after 4 hr. Low concentrations (0.2 and 2 nMolar ) of 20-HE stimulated the growth of the RAE 25 line (P less than 0.02), but 200 nMolar or more inhibited growth (P less than 0.001). Twenty-HE suppressed the growth of the young line ANE 58 in a dose-dependent manner, but the decrease in cell growth was less pronounced than in RAE 25. Ten to 100 times more (2 and 20 mu Molar) 20-HE was needed to achieve significant growth suppression (P less than 0.025 and less than 0.005). The growth of both lines declined (P less than 0.01) by 20% ( RAE 25) or 30% (ANE 58) when the medium contained 38 mu Molar of JH III. The bimodal growth response of line RAE 25 to 20-HE also occurred in the presence of 3.8 and 38 mu Molar JH III, and 2 nMolar 20-HE counteracted the suppressive effect of 38 mu Molar JH III.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
