Pleiotropic immunoregulation by growth‐blocking peptide in Ostrinia furnacalis

Dongchun Hu,

et al.

Abstract: Insects rely on their innate immune system to eliminate pathogenic microbes. As a system component, cytokines transmit intercellular signals to control immune responses. Growth‐blocking peptide (GBP) is a member of the stress‐responsive peptide family of cytokines found in several orders of insects, including Drosophila. However, the physiological role of GBP in defence against pathogens is not thoroughly understood. In this study, we explored the functions of GBP in a lepidopteran pest, Ostrinia furnacalis.
