Radiolabeled anthranilic diamide insecticide [N-C(3)H(3)]chlorantraniliprole was synthesized at high specific activity. It was compared with phthalic diamide insecticide flubendiamide and [(3)H]ryanodine in radioligand binding studies with house fly muscle membranes to provide the first direct evidence with a native insect ryanodine receptor that the major anthranilic and phthalic diamide insecticides bind at different allosterically coupled sites, i.e., there are three distinct Ca(2+)-release channel targets for insecticide action.

Article Synopsis
- The rice stem borer is developing resistance to key insecticides, posing a challenge for its control and management in agriculture.
- Research on 126 populations from China showed moderate to high resistance to four main insecticides, revealing genetic mutations linked to this resistance.
- Understanding these resistance mechanisms, including both target-site mutations and nontarget mechanisms like enzyme overexpression, can aid in developing effective and sustainable pest management strategies.

Article Synopsis
- Diamide insecticides have been used for over ten years to control beet armyworm pests, but resistance has developed, complicating their ongoing effectiveness.
- Researchers identified a specific mutation (I4790 M) in the ryanodine receptor gene of S. exigua associated with resistance, although its prevalence varied among different populations in Korea.
- The study highlighted CYP9A40 as a key gene in metabolic resistance, showing a strong correlation between its expression and increased resistance to diamides, suggesting combined strategies for better pest control and management of insecticide resistance.

Insect neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are transmembrane receptors that play a key role in the development and synaptic plasticity of both vertebrates and invertebrates, and are considered to be major targets of several insecticides. We used dorsal unpaired median (DUM) neurons, which are insect neurosecretory cells, to explore what type of nAChRs are involved in flupyradifurone's (FLU) mode of action, and to study the role of calcium release from intracellular stores in this process. Using whole-cell patch-clamp and fura-2-AM calcium imaging techniques, we found that inhibition of IPRs through application of 2-APB reduced FLU inward currents, but did not affect the intracellular calcium release induced by FLU.

Article Synopsis
- The resistance of pests to insecticides is a growing global problem that impacts food production, particularly with widely used diamide insecticides which target insect ryanodine receptors (RyRs).
- Using advanced techniques like chimeric RyR and cryo-electron microscopy, researchers studied how different diamide insecticides interact with RyRs and how this relates to emerging resistance mutations.
- The study reveals how these resistance mutations change the receptor's structure, reducing the effectiveness of insecticides, and offers insights for developing new pesticides that can overcome these resistance challenges.

Chlorantraniliprole (CHL), a favored agricultural insecticide, is renowned for its high efficiency and broad-spectrum effectiveness against lepidoptera insects. However, the urgency for new insecticide development is underscored by the intricate multistep preparation process and modest overall yields of CHL, along with the escalating challenge of insect resistance. In response, we have crafted CHL mimics from proline employing computer-aided drug design.
