The regulation of JH epoxide hydrolase, JH esterase and 1-naphthyl acetate (NA) esterase activity was studied in ovary, gut, head and carcass after blood feeding in Culex quinquefasciatus.
The juvenoid, (RS)-methoprene, interfered with the regulation of JH esterase activity, but failed to change the activity levels of JH epoxide hydrolase and 1-NA esterase.

The JH analog, methoprene, increased both JH esterase and EH activity as high as 2.5-fold.
