Abstract：
:For the cockroach Leucophaea maderae the developmental profile of lipophorin (Lp) concentrations in the hemolymph was determined through the entire vitellogenic period. At mid-vitellogenesis the concentrations of Lp had risen to 6 times the level at emergence and then declined to 2/3 of such high values at ovulation. The racemic 10R,10S-JH-III bound to Lp with an affinity of K(d) = 5.76 nM and the natural enantiomer 10R-JH-III with a K(d) = 1.60 nM. Injections of anti-Lp into mated females caused a significantly reduced rate of oocyte growth and a substantial degree of oosorption. Injections of gamma-globulin did not significantly reduce oocyte growth and caused only a small number of oocytes to resorb. Starvation after mating had similar effects as treatment with anti-Lp. Because of the high affinity of JH to Lp and since Lp occurs in micromolar concentrations during vitellogenesis one can assume that practically all JH is bound and not available for hydrolysis by the JH esterases. Lp appears to function as an inhibitor of JH metabolism by the JHEs through substrate depletion. One may conclude that a normal rate of egg growth is only achieved when titers of Lp exceed those of JH and remove major portions of this substrate from degradation by the JHEs.
