Ligand-gated ion channels as targets of neuroactive insecticides. , Makoto Ihara , Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry , 86 , 2 , 157 , 164 , 2022年1月24日
概要：The Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels (Cys-loop receptors) is one of the most ubiquitous ion channel families in vertebrates and invertebrates. Despite their ubiquity, they are targeted by several classes of pesticides, including neonicotinoids, phenylpyrazols, and macrolides such as ivermectins. The current commercialized compounds have high target site selectivity, which contributes to the safety of insecticide use. Structural analyses have accelerated progress in this field; notably, the X-ray crystal structures of acetylcholine binding protein and glutamate-gated Cl channels revealed the details of the molecular interactions between insecticides and their targets. Recently, the functional expression of the insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) has been described, and detailed evaluations using the insect nAChR have emerged. This review discusses the basic concepts and the current insights into the molecular mechanisms of neuroactive insecticides targeting the ligand-gated ion channels, particularly Cys-loop receptors, and presents insights into target-based selectivity, resistance, and future drug design.
Neonicotinoid Insecticides: Molecular Targets, Resistance, and Toxicity. , Kazuhiko Matsuda; Makoto Ihara; David B Sattelle , Annual review of pharmacology and toxicology , 60 , 241 , 255 , 2020年1月6日
概要：Copyright © 2020 by Annual Reviews. All rights reserved. Neonicotinoids have been used to protect crops and animals from insect pests since the 1990s, but there are concerns regarding their adverse effects on nontarget organisms, notably on bees. Enhanced resistance to neonicotinoids in pests is becoming well documented. We address the current understanding of neonicotinoid target site interactions, selectivity, and metabolism not only in pests but also in beneficial insects such as bees. The findings are relevant to the management of both neonicotinoids and the new generation of pesticides targeting insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
Neonicotinoids: molecular mechanisms of action, insights into resistance and impact on pollinators. , Makoto Ihara; Kazuhiko Matsuda , Current opinion in insect science , 30 , 86 , 92 , 2018年12月
概要：© 2018 Elsevier Inc. Neonicotinoids are insecticides that target insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), exhibiting high selective toxicity to insects over vertebrates and good systemic activity in crop plants. For these reasons, neonicotinoids currently make up ∼30% of insecticide sales worldwide. However, due to their adverse impact on pollinators such as honey bees and bumble bees, neonicotinoids are being banned from the EU, and other countries may follow. It is therefore crucial to understand the mechanism underlying neonicotinoid actions on pollinators as well as on the nAChRs of pests, with a view to understanding their selectivity. Here we review the molecular mechanisms of neonicotinoid actions at an atomic level, through structural and resistance mechanism studies and propose relevant research topics for further studies on the future of pest management.
