Acute toxic effects of thiamethoxam on Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022
The information about toxic effects of thiamethoxam on non-target aquatic organisms is still incomplete. The semi-static toxicity test method was used to investigate the acute toxic effects of thiamethoxam on Eriocheir sinensis. The results showed that the median lethal concentration (LC50) of thiamethoxam to E.

Effects of atrazine on osmoregulation in the Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Toxicology & Pharmacology, 2002
This study integrates results from acute contamination with atrazine of isolated perfused gills, and from in vivo chronic contamination of euryhaline Chinese mitten crabs, Eriocheir sinensis, acclimated to freshwater. Atrazine 1 mg/l in contact with the basolateral membrane (IN) increases the transepithelial potential difference (TEP) from -20.8 +/- 4 ...

Identification and characterization of Tube in the Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis

Gene, 2014
As a key component of the Toll signaling pathway, Tube plays central roles in many biological activities, such as survival, development and innate immunity. Tube has been found in shrimps, but has not yet been reported in the crustacean, Eriocheir sinensis.

Immune functions of the Dscam extracellular variable region in Chinese mitten crab

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2023
In arthropods, there is only a single copy of Down Syndrome Cell Adhesion Molecule (Dscam) in the genome, but it can exist as numerous splice variants. There are three hypervariable exons in the extracellular domain and one hypervariable exon in the transmembrane domain.

Comparative study of female Chinese mitten crabs based on their sizes and weights

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2021
The Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) is an important aquaculture species in China. While the price of a large crab will generally be 2-5 times higher than that of smaller crabs, it remains unknown whether nutritional quality is affected by market price.

The characterization of hematopoietic tissue in adult Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2016
Invertebrates rely on the efficient innate immune mechanisms against invaders, in which the continuous production of hemocytes (hematopoiesis) is indispensable. In the present study, the hematopoietic tissue (HPT) from Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis was identified and characterized.

Vitellogenin regulates antimicrobial responses in Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2017
Vitellogenin (Vtg) is traditionally regarded as a key supplier of nutrients and energy during the early development of embryos and larvae, but accumulating evidence suggests that Vtg is also involved in innate immune defense. Whether Vtg is involved in innate immunity in Eriocheir sinensis, and its functions, remain largely unknown.

A spiroplasma associated with tremor disease in the Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis)

Microbiology, 2004
An epidemic of tremor disease has been a serious problem in Chinese mitten crabs,Eriocheir sinensis, in China in recent years. The disease-causing agent was previously considered to be a rickettsia-like organism. Here, analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence, light and electron microscopy and cultivationin vitrowere used to identify the agent.

Reproductive function of Selenoprotein M in Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinesis)

Peptides, 2012
Selenoproteins are present in all major forms of life, including eukaryotes, bacteria and archaea. In eukaryotic animals, selenoproteins often function as antioxidants, but rare or absent in other phyla, such as plants and fungi (except for the green alga Chlamydomonas). Selenoprotein M (SelM) is a selenocysteine containing protein with redox activity,

The site of vitellogenin synthesis in Chinese mitten-handed crab Eriocheir sinensis

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2006
The objective of this study was to investigate the synthesis site of vitellogenin in the Chinese mitten-handed crab, Eriocheir sinensis. Using the RT-PCR techniques, the cDNA fragments isolated from the ovaries of vitellogenic female crab, we found that its deduced amino acid sequence had a high identity with that from other decapods crustacean ...
