Signaling pathways of insect adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) in anti-oxidative response are unclear. Exposure to hydrogen peroxide (HP) revealed that AKH-RNAi flies showed significantly higher mortality than AKH-oex or control lines. AKH-RNAi flies had significantly less dFoxO transcript and translated protein compared to control and AKH-oex flies in un-challenged condition as well as when challenged with HP. Sestrin – a major antioxidant defense protein and one of the targets of dFoxO – was also significantly down-regulated in AKH-RNAi flies (both unchallenged and challenged with HP) compared to control flies and flies with over-expressed AKH. These findings imply that dFoxO may act downstream of AKH as a transcription factor to mediate response to OS in D. melanogaster.
