Induction of somatic growth in juvenile crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus (Decapoda, Parastacidae), by ecdysone and insulin growth factor

The effect of ecdysone and IGF-1 on the somatic growth of juvenile crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus, was examined both in vitro and in vivo. After 24. h of incubating explants of abdominal muscle, protein synthesis was augmented by exposure to 0.15 μM of ecdysone, 0.02 μM of IGF-1 or the combination...
