title: Insect neuropeptides and their receptors new leads for medical and agricultural applications.
abstract: Diversification of messenger and receptor molecules is the result of evolution; however, the principles of intercellular signaling mechanisms are very similar in all metazoans. Recent discoveries of insect peptides provide new leads for applications in medicine and agriculture. (Trends Endocrinol Metab 1997;8:321-326). (c) 1997, Elsevier Science Inc.
