Steroid Androgen Exposure during Development Has No Effect on Reproductive Physiology of Biomphalaria glabrata

PLoS ONE, 2016
Gastropod mollusks have been proposed as alternative models for male reproductive toxicity testing, due to similarities in their reproductive anatomy compared to mammals, together with evidence that endocrine disrupting chemicals can cause effects in ...

Sequence and structural variation in the genome of the Biomphalaria glabrata embryonic (Bge) cell line

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
The aquatic pulmonate snail Biomphalaria glabrata is a significant vector and laboratory host for the parasitic flatworm Schistosoma mansoni, an etiological agent for the neglected tropical disease schistosomiasis.

The effect of early infection with Echinostoma paraensei on the interaction of Schistosoma mansoni with Biomphalaria glabrata and Biomphalaria tenagophila

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2010
Infection caused by the trematode Echinostoma paraensei has been shown to interfere in the natural resistance to infection by Schistosoma mansoni. Biomphalaria glabrata is susceptible to infection, while Taim isolate Biomphalaria tenagophila is resistant

Differential expression of small RNA pathway genes associated with the Biomphalaria glabrata/Schistosoma mansoni interaction

PLoS ONE, 2017
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that approximately 240 million people in 78 countries require treatment for schistosomiasis, an endemic disease caused by trematodes of the genus Schistosoma.

Hemocytes of mollusc Biomphalaria glabrata (Gastropoda, Pulmonata)

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2018
We studied hemocytes of Biomphalaria glabrata with the use of light and transmission microscopy and flow cytometry with LysoTracker and SYTO62. These specific fluorescent dyes make it possible to distinguish cells differing in the amount of lysosomes and in transcriptional activity. We found that hemocytes of B.

Complete mitochondrial and rDNA complex sequences of important vector species of Biomphalaria, obligatory hosts of the human-infecting blood fluke, Schistosoma mansoni

Scientific Reports, 2018
Using high throughput Illumina sequencing technology, we determined complete sequences for the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) complex for three African freshwater snail taxa within the genus Biomphalaria, B. pfeifferi,

Fecundity of Biomphalaria straminea and B. glabrata in the laboratory: a twelve-month comparative study

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
In the present comparative study a Biomphalaria straminea sample from Picos (Piauí) showed expressive advantages related to fecundity over a B. glabrata sample from Belo Horizonte (Minas Gerais) such as: higher egg-mass production in 10 out of 12 months ...

Distribuição geográfica das espécies dos caramujos transmissores de Schistosoma mansoni no Estado de São Paulo

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2005
Os conhecimentos sobre a distribuição geográfica das espécies dos caramujos transmissores de Schistosoma mansoni são importantes para o controle e vigilância epidemiológica da esquistossomose mansônica. O estudo da situação no Estado de São Paulo, Brasil,
