Ultraviolet A (UVA), the major component of solar UV irradiation, is an important environmental factor inducing damage to insects including cell death, photoreceptor damage, and oxidative stress. In order to improve understanding of the adaptation mechanisms of insect after UVA exposure, a comparative proteomic analysis was carried out to reveal differential protein expression in Ostrinia furnacalis. Three-day-old adults were treated with UVA for 1 h. Total proteins of control and UVA-treated insects were examined using two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). 2-DE analysis demonstrated that 19 proteins were increased and 18 proteins were decreased significantly in O. furnacalis after UVA exposure, respectively. Thirty differentially expressed proteins were successfully identified by mass spectrometry. The identified proteins were involved in diverse biological processes, such as signal transduction, transport processing, cellular stress, metabolisms, and cytoskeleton organization. Our results reveal that the response patterns of O. furnacalis to UVA irradiation are complex and provide novel insights into the adaptation response to UVA irradiation stress.
