Effects of AKH signaling on the expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism. The relative transcriptional levels of lipogenic and lipolytic genes compared with transcriptional levels of elongation factor in AKHRRNAi crickets (AāE). The experimental control was performed using crickets treated with dsRNA encoding DsRed2. Values are expressed as meansā±āSD (nā=ā5, ***Pā<ā0.001 and *Pā<ā0.05 for Studentās t-test).
