Dilp8 requires the neuronal relaxin receptor Lgr3 to couple growth to developmental timing
Andres Garelli, Fabiana Heredia, Andreia P. Casimiro…·Alisson M. Gontijo
The paper shows that Lgr3 is required for Dilp8 signaling in Drosophila to coordinate growth with developmental timing by transmitting peripheral tissue stress signals to neuroendocrine centers.
