In vitro cultures demonstrated that the transformation of ecdysone to
20hydroxyecdysone and the metabolism to polar or apolar compounds was
especially active in the midgut , but Malpighian tubules and the rest of the animal

Two of the metabolites comigrated on reverse phase columns, but not on silica,
with ecdysone or 20hydroxyecdysone. It was concluded that 22,25-
dideoxyecdysone (or its metabolites) might be very active because of the lack of
conjugation.

The ovaries are the source of ecdysone in the adult females of several insect
species (Riddiford & Truman 1978), and it is possible that this hormone is the
responsible agent for exciting sex pheromone synthesis or the timing of its
release.
