Prostaglandins and other eicosanoids are known as regulating agents for cellular immune responses to pathogen threats in an insect’s hemolymph. A novel synthetic peptide, WolFar, was customized from a conserved region of the Wolbachia surface protein (WSP), isolated from an economically important endoparasitoid species, Fopius arisanus. WolFar consists of nine amino acids (SYY VRL QYN) and was tested on the house cricket, Acheta domesticus. Three concentrations of peptides, mmol/L (100%), mmol/L (75%), and mmol/L (50%), were injected and observed for 72 h. |
