Multi‐Environment Quantification of Parasite and Intermediate Host DNA on Pasture for Fine‐Scale Disease Risk Assessment

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 5, September–October 2024.
Environmental DNA (eDNA) isolated from multiple environmental sources were used to better assess location suitability for parasite and snail intermediate host species in agricultural settings. ABSTRACT Parasite transmission occurs in complex environments comprising multiple matrices.

Different stressors uniquely affect the expression of endocannabinoid‐metabolizing enzymes in the central ring ganglia of Lymnaea stagnalis

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 168, Issue 9, Page 2848-2867, September 2024.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) modulates neuroprotection, energy balance, and stress and fear response. Invertebrate models like Lymnaea stagnalis shed a light on ECS's evolutionary conserved functions. In this study, ECS enzyme transcripts were identified and characterized in snail central nervous system, showing a high level of conservation with ...

Trained immunity: Perspectives for disease control strategy in marine mollusc aquaculture

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 1472-1498, September 2024.
Abstract Recent evidence has demonstrated the unique properties of the innate immune system, known as innate immune memory, immune priming, or trained immunity. These properties have been described as the ability of the innate immune system to learn from previous microbial experiences, which improves survival after subsequent infection. In this review,

Determinação do crescimento populacional de Biomphalaria glabrata e Biomphalaria tenagophila (Mollusca, Planorbidae) [PDF]

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 1971
Durante um período de 6 meses os autores estudaram, comparativamente, o crescimento populacional das espécies B. glabrata e B. tenagophila. Houve um desenvolvimento inicial, significativamente maior, de população de B. glabrata. Após terem alcançado um nível crítico de saturação, o número de exemplares das populações decresceu, sendo que, após um breve

Climate change could fuel urinary schistosomiasis transmission in Africa and Europe

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 8, August 2024.
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease that affects over 200 million people worldwide. The disease is linked to areas that are climatically suitable for its freshwater intermediate snail hosts. To predict the potential impact of climate change on the snail, we use snail life‐history data obtained from lab‐based temperature experiments and snail ...

Distribution, abundance, population structures, and potential impacts of the invasive snail, Tarebia granifera in aquatic ecosystems of north‐eastern South Africa

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
The study investigates Tarebia granifera, a highly successful aquatic invader, in South Africa's Limpopo and Phongolo River systems. The study revealed that T. granifera dominates in habitats where it is present, negatively impacting native molluscan species. Interestingly, the study did not find significant correlations between T.
