In the conceptual frame of “One Health”, the safety crisis caused by various toxicological
issues due to chemical exposure is of great concern. The urgent demand for …

Bees carry out vital ecosystem services by pollinating both wild and economically important
crop plants. However, while performing this function, bee pollinators may encounter …

The toxicity of pesticides used in agriculture towards non-targeted organisms and especially
pollinators has recently drawn the attention from a broad scientific community. Increased …

The voltage‐sensitive sodium channel (VSSC) is essential for the generation and
propagation of action potentials. VSSC kinetics can be modified by producing different splice …

The appearance of voltage-gated, sodium-selective channels with rapid gating kinetics was
a limiting factor in the evolution of nervous systems. Two rounds of domain duplications …

Insecticides are widely used to control pests in agriculture and insect vectors that transmit
human diseases. However, these chemicals can have a negative effect on nontarget …

Diamides belong to one of the newest insecticides class. We characterized cellular effects of
the first commercialized diamide, chlorantraniliprole (ChlorAnt). ChlorAnt not only induces a …

Simple Summary Pyrethroids are a major class of insecticides for controlling arthropod pests
and human disease transmitting vectors. Resistance to pyrethroid insecticides presents a …

The current risk assessment framework for insecticides suffers from certain shortcomings in
adequately addressing the effects of low doses on off-target species. To remedy this gap, a …

In honey bees, circulation of blood (hemolymph) is driven by the peristaltic contraction of the
heart vessel located in the dorsal part of the abdomen. Chlorantraniliprole (CHL) is an …
