Molecular characterization and immune association of Fas‐associated death domain protein (FADD) in Tenebrio molitor

open access: yesEntomological Research, Volume 54, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Fas‐associated death domain protein (FADD) is an apoptotic adapter molecule that recruits caspases and facilitates the formation of death‐inducing signaling complexes in mammals. In lower animals, FADD forms a complex with immune deficiency and death‐related ced‐3/Nedd2‐like caspase to elicit antimicrobial responses.

The decline of northern malaria and population dynamics of Plamodium vivax [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Europe was declared malaria free in 1975. The disappearance of malaria has traditionally been attributed to numerous deliberate actions like vector control, the screening of houses, more efficient medication etc.

Assessing transgenerational gene editing capacity for enhancing aquaculture productivity in decapod crustaceans

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 2077-2089, September 2024.
Abstract In the wake of global population increases and stagnating capture fishery production, there exists a requirement for novel biotechnologies to increase aquaculture productivity to offset demand. Through recognition of limitations imposed by aquaculture—increased incidence of disease, stress, cannibalism, and mortality in captivity—researchers ...

Exploring the role of RNASET2 in the immune response of black soldier fly larvae

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 116, Issue 4, August 2024.
RNASET2 involvement in the immune response of black soldier fly larvae. Abstract T2 RNases are transferase‐type enzymes distributed across phyla, crucial for breaking down single‐stranded RNA molecules. In addition to their canonical function, several T2 enzymes exhibit pleiotropic roles, contributing to various biological processes, such as the immune

Suppression of Laccase 2 severely impairs cuticle tanning and pathogen resistance during the pupal metamorphosis of Anopheles sinensis (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
BackgroundPhenol oxidases (POs) catalyze the oxidation of dopa and dopamine to melanin, which is crucial for cuticle formation and innate immune maintenance in insects. Although, Laccase 2, a member of the PO family, has been reported to be a requirement
