Outline of Final Research Achievements

A large quantity of an insulin-like growth faster (IGF)-like peptide is secreted after pupation in Bombyx mori. Hypothesizing that the growth and development of adult tissues are regulated by the combined effects of this peptide (BIGFLP) and 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), we investigated the growth-promoting effects of these hormones on the male genital disks of B. mori cultured in vitro and further analyzed the cell signaling pathways mediating hormone actions. We revealed that 20E induces the elongation of genital disks, that both hormones stimulate protein synthesis in an additive manner, and that BIGFLP and 20E exert their effects through the insulin/IGF signaling pathway and MAPK pathway, respectively. These results show that the growth and development of the genital disk are coordinately regulated by both BIGFLP and 20E. The analyses using a BIGFLP-deficient mutant produced by CRSPR-Cas9 system showed that BIGFLP plays a critical role in the growth control of ovaries.
