Caenorhabditis elegans LIN‐24, a homolog of bacterial pore‐forming toxin, protects the host from microbial infection

The FASEB Journal, Volume 37, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
The research conducted by Zhang et al. investigated the protective function of LIN‐24, a Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of bacterial pore‐forming toxin, in defending against microbial infections. Knockdown and overexpression of LIN‐24 resulted in changes in gene expression related to immune and defense response. Infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa 14

Genome-wide discovery, and computational and transcriptional characterization of an AIG gene family in the freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata, a vector for Schistosoma mansoni

BMC Genomics, 2020
The AIG (avrRpt2-induced gene) family of GTPases, characterized by the presence of a distinctive AIG1 domain, is mysterious in having a peculiar phylogenetic distribution, a predilection for undergoing expansion and loss, and an uncertain functional role,

ITS2 variability of Biomphalaria (Mollusca, Planorbidae) species from the Paranapanema Valley (São Paulo State, Brazil): diversity patterns, population structure, and phylogenetic relationships

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2007
The ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) has been shown to be a useful genetic marker for species identification and phylogenetic reconstruction in the genus of freshwater snails Biomphalaria (Preston 1910).

Seleção genética de Biomphalaria glabrata e Biomphalaria tenagophila visando a alteração da suscetibilidade e resistência ao Schistosoma mansoni Genetic selection of Biomphalaria glabrata and Biomphalaria tenagophila seeking the alteration of the susceptibility and resistance to the Schistosoma mansoni

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2005
Gerações de Biomphalaria glabrata e Biomphalaria tenagophila selecionadas geneticamente para resistência e suscetibilidade ao Schistosoma mansoni das linhagens BH e SJ foram utilizadas no estudo da adaptação do trematódeo ao hospedeiro intermediário.

Competitive interactions between species of fresh-water snails: I. Laboratory. IC. Comparative survival of Biomphalaria glabrata and B. Straminea kept out of water

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1985
Biomphalaria glabrata and B. straminea were submitted to an out-door laboratory experiment for testing their comparative ability to resist desiccation. Results have shown that B. straminea is significantly higher resistant than B. glabrata.
