    Notes: Maturing eggs (48 to 64 h old) of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, contain at least three ecdysteroid conjugates, two of which have been previously identified as 26-hydroxyecdysone 26-phosphate (the major conjugate) and 26-hydroxyecdysone 22-glucoside. In this study we have isolated and identified the third conjugate as 26-hydroxyecdysone 2-phosphate by XAD-2 chromatography, C18 SEP-PAK separation, ion suppression reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance, and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. This compound is the second most abundant conjugate of ovaries from 4-day-old adult females. The possible role for this ecdysteroid conjugate is discussed.

    Notes: The levels of individual free and conjugated ecdysteroids and ecdysteroid acids, labeled from [14C]cholesterol, in five different age groups of male Manduca sexta during pupal-adult development were determined by HPLC. Eight free ecdysteroids, eight ecdysteroid phosphates, and two ecdysteroid acids were identified. Newly ecdysed pupae contained predominantly 3-epiecdysteroids in each of the free, conjugated, and acidic ecdysteroid fractions. The titer of each ecdysteroid fraction rose sharply by day 4, and this was particularly noteworthy with respect to free ecdysone and 3-epi-20-hydroxyecdysonoic acid. This stage demonstrated high degrees of ecdysone biosynthesis, oxidative catabolism, and phosphorylation. As development proceeded to day 16, total ecdysteroid titer remained constant; a decreasing free ecdysteroid titer was accompanieid by increasing titers of both conjugates and acids resulting from the metabolic processes of hydroxylation, oxidation, epimerization, and phosphorylation. The predominant metabolites throughout development were 3-epi-20-hydroxyecdysonoic acid and the phosphate conjugates of 3-epi-20-hydroxyecdysone and 3-epi-20,26-dihydroxyecdysone. The ultimate inactivation of the ecdysteroids of M. sexta during pupal-adult development is possibly mediated by two pairs of metabolically-linked processes, one leading to a 3-epiecdysteroid acid, and the other to 3-epiecdysteroid phosphates.

    Metabolism of 26-[14C]hydroxyecdysone 26-phosphate in the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta L., to a new ecdysteroid conjugate: 26-[14C]hydroxyecdysone 22-glucoside (1987)

    Notes: Following injection into female Manduca sexta pupae, [14C]cholesterol is converted to a radiolabeled C21 nonecdysteroid conjugate as well as ecdysteroid conjugates, which in ovaries and newly-laid eggs consist mainly of labeled 26-hydroxyecdysone 26-phosphate. During embryogenesis, as the level of 26-hydroxyecdysone 26-phosphate decreases there is a concurrent increase in the amount of a new, labeled ecdysteroid conjugate. This conjugate, which is the major ecdysteroid conjugate (9.4 μg/g) in 0- to 1-hour-old larvae was identified as 26-hydroxyecdysone 22-glucoside by nuclear magnetic resonance and chemical ionization mass spectrometry. This is the first ecdysteroid glucoside to be identified from an insect. The disappearance of 26-hydroxyecdysone 26-phosphate in 0- to 1-hour-old larvae indicates that the 26-hydroxyecdysone 22-glucoside is derived from 26-hydroxyecdysone 26-phosphate. 3-Epi-26-hydroxyecdysone was the major free ecdysteroid isolated from these larvae and 3-epi-20,26-dihydroxyecdysone was the next most abundant ecdysteroid isolated. Interestingly, the 0- to 1-hour-old larvae contained the highest levels of 3α-ecdysteroids per gram of insect tissue (8.7 μg/g) to be isolated from an insect, yet there was a complete absence of the corresponding free 3β-epimers. The ecdysteroid conjugate profiles of ovaries and 0- to 1-hour-old larvae are discussed. Methodology is presented that permits the efficient separation of free and conjugated ecdysteroids and nonecdysteroid conjugates (C21-steroid conjugates).
