What are ENDOCRINE GLANDS?
• GLANDS WITHOUT DUCT.
• A gland that produces and secretes hormoneswith in the body.
• Diffuses to haemolymph
• Also called as RETRO-CEREBRAL GLANDS

What is HORMONE ?
• Greek word means ‘I EXCITE’.
• It is defined as Chemicals produced in a glandthat are released into the blood and have theireffect somewhere else in the animal.

COMPONENTS OF ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
• Neurosecretory cells
• Corpora cardiaca
• Corpora allata
• Prothroracic glands
The Cerebral Neurosecretory Cells and Corpora cardiaca form a Neurosecretory system.
![Page 5: ROLE OF ENDOCRINE SYSTEM IN INSECTSrnlkwc.ac.in/pdf/study-material/zoology/ENDOCRINE.pdf · The Insects: Structure and Function, 5th Edition,2013 - R.F.Chapman Physiological Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052023/603901cb1ef87a47b3323e1f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Prothoracic glands------Produce Ecdysone.
Corpora allata-------------Produces JH.
Corpora cardiaca---------Stores and releases brainhormones.Also produces and releases some peptides such asAdipokinetic Hormones.
Midgut endocrine cells----Produce various peptides.
Epitracheal glands------Produce the ecdysistriggering hormone “Eclosion” in LepidopteraNeurosecretory cells----Produce Neurosecretion

1. Neurosecretory cells (NSC)
• NSC in dorsal part of protocerebrum produce ahormone called Prothoracicotropic Hormone
(PTTH) or BRAIN HORMONE which activates
prothoracic glands.
• NSC in brain secretes BURSICON which is
involved in hardening and darkening of cuticle.
• Neurosecretory cells scattered in the ventral
nerve cord produce Diuretic Hormone.
![Page 9: ROLE OF ENDOCRINE SYSTEM IN INSECTSrnlkwc.ac.in/pdf/study-material/zoology/ENDOCRINE.pdf · The Insects: Structure and Function, 5th Edition,2013 - R.F.Chapman Physiological Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052023/603901cb1ef87a47b3323e1f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
In insects, the NEUROSECRETORY CELLSare responsible for production of hormones,except Ecdysone and Juvenile hormones,which are produced from Non-neural Tissueslike Prothoracic Glands and Corpora Allata.
Insect NSCs shows Excitatory andInhibitory post- synaptic potentials.
The release of hormone is mediated throughthe influx of Ca2+ ions.

Neurosecretory hormone that controls Tanning orSclerotization and mechanical properties of the cuticle during andafter a molt. Found in most ganglia of the CNS.

Functional significance of
NEUROSECRETORY HORMONES
• The Growth and Reproduction in insects areundoubtedly under the control of neurosecretoryhormones
• Neurosecretory hormones have also beenassociated with behavioural activities, such as,response of the female towards the male,cocoon formation etc.

Found in most of insects exceptCOLLEMBOLA
Lies on each side of Aorta behind brain
Connected to protocerbrum and hypocerbralganglion
It acts as a Conventional Storage and releaseorgan for neurosecretory cells
It controls heart beat and regulatetrehalose level in haemolymph
2. Corpora cardiaca(CC)
![Page 13: ROLE OF ENDOCRINE SYSTEM IN INSECTSrnlkwc.ac.in/pdf/study-material/zoology/ENDOCRINE.pdf · The Insects: Structure and Function, 5th Edition,2013 - R.F.Chapman Physiological Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052023/603901cb1ef87a47b3323e1f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3. Corpora allata(CA)• These glands were discovered asearly as 1899 by JANET
• A special type with both CC and CA fused and connected bythe fused PG to form a single structure is represented by theRING GLAND in CYCLORRHAPHOUS DIPTERA
•CA hormones are responsible for theinhibition of metamorphosis. The CAhormone(s) is therefore sometimes also called as‘Inhibitory or Status Quo’ Hormone
•Secretes JUVENILE HORMONE (JH) ORNEOTININ there by inhibit metamorphosis(adult characteristics)
![Page 14: ROLE OF ENDOCRINE SYSTEM IN INSECTSrnlkwc.ac.in/pdf/study-material/zoology/ENDOCRINE.pdf · The Insects: Structure and Function, 5th Edition,2013 - R.F.Chapman Physiological Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052023/603901cb1ef87a47b3323e1f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SER is structural site for JH regulation
A decreasing activity of corpora allata during successivelarval instars resulting in the virtual cessation of activity inthe last instar.
Other activities controlled by CA arepolymorphism, regeneration, metabolism of fat, waterbalance, colour changes, imaginal diapause, pheromoneproduction etc.
JH first extracted from the abdomen of Hyalophoracercopia (Moth)
It is needed for egg maturation and function asaccessory glands

Use of juvenile hormone and their mimics in pest control
•The concept of juvenile hormone and their mimics as insecticidewas developed in a startling way when Dr. Karl Slama of Praguewent to Harvard to collaborate with Professor Carroll Williams.
•Slama took a stock of the bug Pyrrhocoris apterus with him buthe found that in Harvard the bugs would not develop intonormal adult
•A comparison between the culture conditions in Harvard andPrague eventually revealed that paper towels used in rearing jarswere the source of the substance.
•The substance was called as ‘PAPER FACTOR’ which chemicallyshow resemblance to JH.
• JH and their analogues have already shown interesting resultsagainst Tribolium infestation.

•METHOPRENE (Ist CommercialProduct) is used in Mosquitocontrol.
•HYDROPRENE and KINOPRENEare JH analogues and are used ininsect control
•JH I is found mainly in theLepidoptera Manduca sexta
•JH III was discovered by DR. YINFound mainly in theCYCLORRHAPHOUS DIPTERANS.
