Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus Bm96 suppresses viral virulence in Bombyx mori larvae

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2020
Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a severe pathogen for the domestic silkworm, Bombyx mori. BmNPV harbors over 140 protein-coding genes in its 128.4 kilobase pair-long double-stranded genome. However, many BmNPV genes are still uncharacterized. Here we investigated the role of BmNPV Bm96 in both B. mori cultured cells and larvae.

Hexosamine in Bombyx mori Silk

Nature, 1965
CONSTITUENTS other than protein in Bombyx mori silk have received little attention1. The significant amounts of hexosamine found in hair and wool2 prompted this study to quantitate and to identify the amino-sugars in B. mori silk.

Bombyx mori bidensovirus infection alters the intestinal microflora of fifth instar silkworm (Bombyx mori) larvae

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2019
Bacterial diseases can occur as a result of disruption of the intestinal microbial population in the silkworm, Bombyx mori, and are often induced by bidensovirus (BmBDV) infection. We investigated the effects of BmBDV infection on intestinal microbes and immune gene responses in fifth instar silkworm larvae.

Strong Reduced Graphene Oxide Coated Bombyx mori Silk

Advanced Functional Materials, 2021
Bombyx mori silks possess great potential in textile industries due to the large‐scale green production. However, the demand for silks with functional as well as mechanical properties are continuously rising due to the emergence of other functional ...

Phenomenological models of Bombyx mori silk fibroin and their mechanical behavior using molecular dynamics simulations.

Materials Science and Engineering C: Materials for Biological Applications, 2020
Bombyx mori silk fibroin (B. mori SF) is a promising biopolymer for use in biomedical applications such as tissue engineered grafts and as a load bearing biopolymer with biocompatible and bioresorbable properties. B.

Uric acid metabolism promotes apoptosis against Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus in silkworm, Bombyx mori

Insect Molecular Biology, 2023
Abstract The white epidermis of silkworms is due to the accumulation of uric acid crystals. Abnormal silkworm uric acid metabolism decreases uric acid production, leading to a transparent or translucent phenotype. The oily silkworm op50 is a mutant strain with a highly transparent epidermis derived from the p50 strain.

Effects of chlorantraniliprole exposure on detoxification enzyme activities and detoxification-related gene expression in the fat body of the silkworm, Bombyx mori.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2019
Chlorantraniliprole (CAP) can induce excessive calcium release from muscle of insects, causing muscle paralysis until death, and its residues in farmland can cause poisoning in Bombyx mori (B. mori), resulting in the failure of cocooning. No reports have

Cytopathology of the trachea of Bombyx mori (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) to Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus

Micron, 2016
Bombyx mori is a holometabolous insect found only in germplasm banks and morphological data related of resistance and susceptibility to diseases is important when selecting hybrids for commercial and scientific interest. This study analyzed the cytopathology of B. mori trachea to BmNPV, isolated geographically in Paraná state, Brazil.

Characterization of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus infection in fat body-derived Bombyx mori cultured cells

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2020
Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is known to replicate in many tissues of Bombyx mori larvae. However, the cell lines used for BmNPV research are predominantly derived from B. mori ovaries or early embryos. In the present study, we examined the properties of NIAS-Bm-aff3 (aff3), a cell line that was established from B.
