Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Dinotefuran is an insecticide of the neonicotinoid class developed by Mitsui Chemicals for control of insect pests such as aphids, whiteflies, thrips, leafhoppers, leafminers, sawflies, mole cricket, white grubs, lacebugs, billbugs, beetles, mealybugs, and cockroaches on leafy vegetables, in residential and commercial buildings, and for professional turf management. Its mechanism of action involves disruption of the insect's nervous system by inhibiting nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. In order to avoid harming beneficial insects such as bees, it should not be applied during bloom.

Product Data
Biological target:
Dinotefuran is an insecticide of the neonicotinoid class, its mechanism of action involves disruption of the insect's nervous system by inhibiting nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
In vitro activity:
At 1.0 mg/kg and 2.0 mg/kg, dinotefuran induced excess generation of ROS, resulting in significant changes in antioxidant enzyme activities and functional gene expression. Moreover, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids were oxidized and damaged by the excess ROS induced by dinotefuran, resulting in serious destruction of the structure and function of cells. Additionally, the toxicity of dinotefuran showed obvious dose- and time-dependent effects. Reference: Chemosphere. 2017 Jun;176:156-164. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28260655/
In vivo activity:
In total, 33, 144, and 211 differentially expressed (DE) circRNAs were identified on the 1st, 5th and 10th days after exposure to dinotefuran, respectively. Enrichment analyses revealed that the host genes of DE circRNAs were enriched in the Hippo signaling pathway-fly, Wnt signaling pathway, and neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction. circ_0002266, circ_0005080, circ_0010239 and circ_0005415 were found to have translational potential due to the presence of an internal ribosome entry site (IRES). An integrated analysis of the DE circRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks suggest that circ_0008898 and circ_0001829 may participate in the immune response to dinotefuran exposure by acting as miRNA sponges.
