摘要: 减少媒介昆虫的叮咬是控制虫媒病的重要手段。然而,传统防制手段的弊端已逐渐暴露,因此,研制新型防制方法迫在眉睫。昆虫寻找宿主和吸血等行为在很大程度上是由其嗅觉系统控制的,因此,通过干扰昆虫嗅觉系统进行防制成为新的虫媒病控制手段。在昆虫通过嗅觉系统感受环境中众多气味分子的过程中,昆虫气味受体的作用尤为重要。本文就昆虫气味受体及其介导的嗅觉信号转导等方面取得的研究进展作一简要综述。

Abstract: Protection against insect bites is one of the main strategies in prevention and control of the vector-borne diseases. However, due to the obvious shortcomings of traditional control methods, it is necessary to develop new control measures. Most insects rely on their olfactory systems for host and mate location. Interfering with insect olfactory systems is becoming a hot research area in the control of vector-borne diseases. As odorant receptors play a major role in perception of odorant molecules by insect olfactory system, this paper summarizes the recent progress on insect odorant receptors and their olfactory signal transduction.
