摘要: In insects, nuclear receptors (NRs) including EcR (NR1H1), USP (NR2B4), E75 (NR1D3), HR3 (NR1F), HR4 (NR6) and FTZ-F1 (NR5A3) mediate the 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) signaling cascade to play a critical role during larval metamorphosis. In this present paper, we focused on hormone receptor 38 (HR38) in Leptinotarsa decemlineata, the only insect homolog of the NR4A subclass. RNA interference (RNAi) of LdHR38 in the penultimate (third) instar larvae reduced the expression of an ecdysteroidogenesis gene and declined the titer of 20E. Knockdown of LdHR38 intensified the expression of LdUSP, LdE75, LdE74, LdE93, LdBroad and LdHR3, whereas repressed the transcription of LdETZ-F1. Disruption of 20E signaling inhibited chitin biosynthesis in the larval cuticle. Approximately 25% of the LdHR38 RNAi larvae died, around 40% of the resultant larvae remained as prepupae or become deformed pupae. The body surface of the HR38 depleted abnormal prepupae and pupae looked wet, just like the cuticle being covered with a layer of liquid. Moreover, the increase of larval mortality, and the impairment of pupation and emergence exhibited dose-dependent manners. Furthermore, silencing LdHR38 at the final (fourth) instar caused similar but less severe impairment of pupation. Dietary supplement with 20E for the third instar larvae did not rescue the high larval death and only slightly alleviated the low pupation rate in the LdHR38 RNAi hypomorphs. Accordingly, we propose that HR38 is necessary for tune of ecdysteroidogenesis and for mediation of 20E signaling during metamorphosis in L. decemlineata.
