- W2024005157 abstract "The gut of most insects is lined with a peritrophic matrix that facilitates the digestive process and protects insects from invasion by micro-organisms and parasites. It is widely accepted that the matrix is composed of chitin, proteins and proteoglycans. Here we critically re-examine the chitin content of the typical type 2 peritrophic matrix from the larvae of the fly Lucilia cuprina using a range of techniques. Many of the histochemical and biochemical techniques indicate the presence of chitin, although they are often adversely influenced by the presence of highly glycosylated proteins, a principal component of the matrix. The alkali-stable fraction, which is used as an indicator of the maximum chitin content in a biological sample, is only 7.2% of the weight of the matrix. Larvae fed on the potent chitin synthase inhibitor polyoxin D or the chitin-binding agent Calcofluor White, showed strong concentration-dependent inhibition of larval weight and survival but no discernible effects on the matrix structure. A bacterial endochitinase fed to larvae had no effect on larval growth and no observable effect in vitro on the structure of isolated peritrophic matrix. RT-PCR did not detect a chitin synthase mRNA in cardia, the tissue from which PM originates. It is concluded that chitin is a minor structural component of the type 2 peritrophic matrix of this insect." @default.
