Carrow, Grant M., Calabrese, Ronald L., Williams, Carroll M.
Release of neurohormone from putative cephalic neurohemal organs was directly demonstrated in an insect. The prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, was measured...

MITOCHONDRIA IN THE FLIGHT MUSCLES OF INSECTS : I. CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND ENZYMATIC CONTENT
Watanabe, Mary Ishimoto, Williams, Carroll M.
1. The "indirect" thoracic muscles of adult dipterous and hymenopterous insects consist of a unique type of muscle characterized by the presence of numerous spherical, intracytoplasmic bodies termed...
THE EFFECTS OF DIPHTHERIA TOXIN ON THE CECROPIA SILKWORM
Pappenheimer, A. M., Williams, Carroll M.
1. The metamorphosis of the Cecropia silkworm is accompanied by large and systematic changes in the insect's sensitivity to diphtheria toxin. 2. Injection of less than 1 gamma of toxin into mature...
Telfer, William H., Williams, Carroll M.
1. The cell-free blood of the Cecropia silkworm produces a maximum of nine bands of antigen-antibody precipitate when reacted in antiserum-agar tests with antisera prepared by injecting Cecropia...
Watanabe, Mary Ishimoto, Williams, Carroll M.
1. The sarcosomes of Drosophila and the blowfly, Phormia, are dense, spherical, homogeneous bodies when isolated from flight muscle and promptly examined under the phase contrast, oil immersion...
Levenbook, Leo, Williams, Carroll M.
1. In the present study a correlation has been sought between aging, flight muscle mitochrondria (sarcosomes), cytochrome c, and flight ability in the blowfly, Phormia regina. 2. During the 1st week...
