Investigation of structural proteins in sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) body wall [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
AbstractStructural proteins play critical roles in the food quality, especially texture properties, of sea cucumbers and their products. Most of the previous studies on sea cucumbers focused on few individual proteins, which limited our understanding of how structural proteins influenced the quality of sea cucumbers.

Absorption and Transport of Sea Cucumber Saponins from Apostichopus japonicus [PDF]

Marine Drugs, 2016
The present study is focused on the intestinal absorption of sea cucumber saponins. We determined the pharmacokinetic characteristics and bioavailability of Echinoside A and Holotoxin A1; the findings indicated that the bioavailability of Holotoxin A1 was lower than Echinoside A.

Effect of Kisspeptin-Type Neuropeptide on Locomotor Behavior and Muscle Physiology in the Sea Cucumber Apostichopus japonicus

Animals, 2023
Kisspeptins are neuropeptides encoded by the kiss1 gene, and little is known about them outside the vertebrate lineage. Two kisspeptin-type neuropeptides (KPs) have been discovered in Apostichopus japonicus (AjK1 and AjK2), an edible sea cucumber, and ...

Enhancing the immune response in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus by addition of Chinese herbs Houttuynia cordata Thunb as a food supplement

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2019
The Chinese herb Houttuynia cordata Thunb (abbreviated as HCT hereafter) has been widely used in human and livestock medical research. However, few studies have tested the effects of HCT in aquaculture systems, particularly in echinoderms. In this study,

Long-Term Tetrabromobisphenol A Exposure Induces Gut Microbiota Imbalance and Metabolic Disorders via the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Signaling Pathway in the Regenerated Gut of Apostichopus japonicus

Biology, 2023
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a commonly utilized brominated flame retardant, is found in many types of abiotic and biotic matrices. TBBPA can increase oxidative stress, disrupt the endocrine system, cause neurodevelopmental disorders and activate ...

Genetic diversity and population structure of the endangered Japanese sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) in natural seas of northern China

Aquaculture Reports, 2023
Overfishing and habitat destruction have decimated wild sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) stocks, causing this species to become endangered. Several conservation measures have been implemented to assist in the recovery of A. japonicus. Due to the low
