The immunomodulation of inducible nitric oxide in scallop Chlamys farreri

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2013
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signalling molecule which plays an indispensable role in immunity of all vertebrates and invertebrates. In the present study, the immunomodulation of inducible NO in scallop Chlamys farreri was examined by monitoring the alterations of haemocyte behaviours and related immune molecules in response to the stimulations of

The microstructure and nanomechanical properties of chlamys farreri shell

2011 International Conference on Remote Sensing, Environment and Transportation Engineering, 2011
The microstructure of chlamys farreri shell was observed by SEM, the results showed that the chlamys farreri shell is a kind of biological ceramic composite, which is composed of calcite, aragonite and collagen. The calcite layer has irregular laminated structure, and the aragonite layer has regular laminated structure which are composed of staight ...

The versatile functions of LRR-only proteins in mollusk Chlamys farreri

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2017
Leucine-rich repeat (LRR)-only proteins are involved in the innate immune responses as they mediate protein-ligand interactions. In the present study, three novel LRR-only proteins, CfLRRop-4, CfLRRop-5 and CfLRRop-6, were identified and characterized from Zhikong scallop Chlamys farreri. They all contained LRR motifs with consensus signature sequences

Exposure of Chlamys farreri to tetrabromobisphenol A: accumulation and multibiomarker responses

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2015
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is currently the most widely used brominated flame retardant (BFR). To date, the toxic effects of TBBPA remains poorly understood in aquatic organisms, especially in bivalves. The objective of this experiment was to examine bioaccumulation and multibiomarker responses in the scallop Chlamys farreri exposed to TBBPA under ...

A novel serine protease with clip domain from scallop Chlamys farreri

Molecular Biology Reports, 2007
The serine proteases with clip domain are involved in various innate immune functions in invertebrate such as antimicrobial activity, cell adhesion, pattern recognition and regulation of the prophenoloxidase system. A serine protease with clip-domain cDNA (Cf SP) was obtained by Expressed sequence taggings (ESTs) method and rapid amplification of cDNA ...

Polypeptide from Chlamys farreri protects HaCaT cells from UVB-induced apoptosis

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2004
A natural polypeptide from marine Chlamys farreri (a kind of scallop) (PCF), has been recently been found to be an effective photoprotective agent against ultraviolet rays B (UVB)-induced mitochondria damage in normal human fibroblasts. To investigate whether PCF has the antiapoptotic effect on human keratinocytes, in the present study, we established ...

A lectin (CfLec-2) aggregating Staphylococcus haemolyticus from scallop Chlamys farreri

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2008
Lectins are a family of carbohydrate-recognition proteins which play crucial roles in innate immunity. In this study, a new lectin (CfLec-2) gene was cloned from Chlamys farreri by EST and RACE approaches. The full-length cDNA of CfLec-2 was composed of 708bp, encoding a typical long form carbohydrate-recognition domain of 130 residues.

Immunotoxicity effect of benzo[α]pyrene on scallop Chlamys farreri

Journal of Ocean University of China, 2009
The toxic effects of benzo[α]pyrene (B[α]P) at different concentrations (0.1, 0.5, 1, 2.5 and 7.5 μgL−1) on scallop (Chlamy farreri) immune system were studied. The results showed that B[α]P had significant toxic effects on the haemocyte counts, neutral red uptake, phagocytosis, bacteriolytic and antibacterial activity (P 0.05).

Characterisation of monoclonal antibodies to haemocyte types of scallop (Chlamys farreri)

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2005
Four monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) (1E7, 1F12, 2H5, 2C6) against haemocytes of scallop (Chlamys farreri) were produced by immunising Balb/C mice. Analysed by the indirect immunofluorescence assay test (IIFAT), immunocytochemical assay, flow cytometry (FCM) and Western-blotting, they showed specificity for more than one haemocyte type (hyalinocyte and ...
