How does urbanization shape shell phenotype, behavior, and parasite prevalence in the snail <i>Cornu aspersum</i>? [PDF]

Curr Zool
Urbanization is a complex and multivariate environmental change, leading to habitat fragmentation and loss, changes in local climate, soil imperviousness, pollution, etc. This is likely to exert pressures simultaneously on various dimensions of organisms’

Effect of Boiling on Chemical Composition of Small Brown Snail (Cornu aspersum aspersum) Meat

Annals of Animal Science, 2023
The aim of this study was to assess the changes occurring as a result of boiling (100°C, 1 h) small brown snail (Cornu aspersum aspersum) meat in relation to its proximate composition, calcium, phosphorus and cholesterol content, as well as the profile ...

Effect of Different Levels of Calcium and Addition of Magnesium in the Diet on Garden Snails’ (Cornu aspersum) Condition, Production, and Nutritional Parameters

Agriculture (Switzerland), 2023
Edible snails are an attractive protein source due to their high growth rate, cost-efficiency, and nutritional value. Calcium is crucial for snail growth, reproduction, and shell formation, while magnesium plays a role in enzyme function and muscle tone.

Dynamics of bacterial community in the gut of Cornu aspersum [PDF]

Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2015
The dynamics of the bacterial community in the intestinal tract of Cornu aspersum was investigated during different states of its life cycle. Two approaches were applied – culture and non-culture.

Key Proteins in Rat Cerebral Cortex: Application of Cornu aspersum Extract as a Neuroprotective Agent in Alzheimer's Type Dementia. [PDF]

Molecules
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most widespread neurodegenerative disorder. Recently, it was found that mucus extract from Cornu aspersum has beneficial effects on memory and cognitive processes in a rat scopolamine model of AD.

Evolution of Duplicated Hox Gene Clusters in Land Snails and Slugs. [PDF]

J Exp Zool B Mol Dev Evol
Molluscs of the order Stylommatophora underwent an ancient genome duplication. We show that stylommatophoran snails and slugs have two broken and incomplete Hox gene clusters; HoxA generally has 9 genes, HoxB usually has 7 genes. After duplication of an ancestral 11‐gene Hox cluster, there was patchwork retention of duplicated genes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the land snail Cornu aspersum (Helicidae: Mollusca): intra-specific divergence of protein-coding genes and phylogenetic considerations within Euthyneura. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The complete sequences of three mitochondrial genomes from the land snail Cornu aspersum were determined. The mitogenome has a length of 14050 bp, and it encodes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and two ribosomal RNA genes. It also includes
