Hypersensitive response to interferon-stimulated gene (ISG)-inducing double-stranded RNA in American bullfrog tadpole fibroblasts.

Developmental and Comparative Immunology, 2023
American bullfrogs are thought to be carriers of ranaviruses and contribute to their global spread via trade. Bullfrog tadpoles succumb to ranaviral infection's more severe and deadly effects than bullfrog adults.

Evaluating Local Factors Shaping the Distribution of the Invasive American Bullfrog in a Mountainous Region of Argentina

Aquatic conservation
Areas with aquatic ecosystems invaded by the American bullfrog face the challenge of managing its proliferation worldwide. This amphibian is native to eastern North America and is now invasive in several regions.

Temperature effects on auditory nerve fiber response in the American bullfrog

Hearing Research, 1990
Single fiber recordings were made from auditory nerve fibers of the American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana). As temperature was raised: (1) Best frequencies of fibers from the amphibian papilla (N = 15) increased. Below 600 Hz best frequency changes up to 0.06 oct/degrees C were found; above 600 Hz changes were less than 0.03 oct/degrees C. In the basilar

Impact of Introduction of American Bullfrogs on Species Diversity

2023
This module explores the introduction of the American bullfrog on their ecosystem. Using species diversity calculations and data collection techniques, students explore how the bullfrog affected the species in its community. Students are introduced to calculations like species richness, species evenness, and species diversity indices.

Sucralose Affects Thyroid Hormone Signaling in American Bullfrog [Rana (Lithobates) catesbeiana] Tadpoles

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2021
Nonnutritive sweeteners used in food and beverage products are widespread, persistent aquatic pollutants. Despite this, their impact on aquatic organisms, particularly vertebrates, is not well-studied. Recent findings in rodents suggest sucralose, a chlorinated disaccharide, alters thyroid hormone (TH) metabolism.

American bullfrog Lithobates catesbeianus (Shaw, 1802) invasion in Argentina

Biological Invasions, 2009
The American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) has been introduced throughout the world over the past two centuries. This taxa is a potentially devastating invader because of its large size, prolific reproductive output, and broad ecological niche. Consequently, the extent of this ongoing biological invasion is an increasing conservation concern.

The labyrinth of the American bullfrog.

Advances in oto-rhino-laryngology, 1979
The labyrinth of the American bullfrog (Rana catesbiana) has been studied by aid of light and electron microscopy. Cell counts and sensory area mapping has been made and it has been shown that scanning electron microscopy is the most appropriate technique at present for cell counts.

Steroid biosynthesis by the American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) interrenals

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1971
Abstract Incubations of various tissue preparations (surviving sections, homogenates and subcellular fractions) of bullfrog interrenals with progesterone-4- 14 C yielded the following identifiable metabolites 4 : 18-hydroxycorticosterone, aldosterone, 11-dehydrocorticosterone, corticosterone, 11β-hydroxyprogesterone, and 11-deoxycorticosterone.

High prevalence and concomitant infection of Eustrongylides sp. and Ranavirus in the invasive American Bullfrog in Brazil.

Parasitology international
American Bullfrogs, Aquarana catesbeiana, are invasive anuran species distributed worldwide. One of the adverse impacts that this species causes in native communities is as a reservoir host for pathogens and parasites.

Vitamin C supplementation has no effect on American bullfrog's immune response

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, 2014
SummaryAmerican bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) is the only species raised in Brazilian commercial frog farms, and the intensive culture of these animals has gained great popularity in Brazil over the past several years. Stress is one of the major obstacles in frog culture.
