Experimental infection with different bacterial strains in larvae and juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei reared in Santa Catarina State, Brazil - doi: 10.4025/actascibiolsci.v32i3.5471

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2010
This study evaluated the pathogenic characteristics of bacteria isolated from Litopenaeus vannamei during an outbreak at the Laboratory of Marine Shrimp, UFSC, Santa Catarina State, Brazil. Their virulence potential in larvae and juvenile shrimp and the

Modulating the Gut‐Microbiota‐Brain Axis in Alzheimer's Disease: Therapeutic Potential of Nutritional and Metabolic Factors

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
This review systematically examines the role of gut microbiota modulation in Alzheimer's disease, focusing on how microbial metabolites and dietary nutrients influence cognitive function and AD pathology, as well as the neuroprotective effects through the gut‐brain axis.

A Comparison of Juvenile and Adult Sunflower Sea Star Transcriptomic Responses to Challenge With Sea Star Wasting Disease Tissue Homogenates

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Sunflower sea stars have been hard hit by sea star wasting disease (SSWD), losing over 5 billion individuals along their natural range from Alaska and Southern California. This work uses transcriptomics to investigate the immune response of adult and juvenile sunflower sea stars exposed to SSWD.

Total synthesis and structural characterization of a novel protein scaffold from the snail Biomphalaria glabrata

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Disulfide‐rich miniproteins constitute compact and highly stable scaffolds of growing interest for molecular and structural engineering. Schistosomins are ~80‐residue proteins conserved across gastropods that form a long‐standing orphan family whose structure and biological roles have remained unknown.

First Assessment of Genetic Damage in the Speckled Cockroach (Nauphoeta cinerea) After Consumption of Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Cultivated and Commercialized in Northeastern, Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 682-689, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study reports, for the first time, the use of the speckled cockroach Nauphoeta cinerea as a promising bioindicator for genotoxic monitoring. It was validated through control groups (both positive and negative) in addition to testing lettuce (Lactuca sativa ) samples from public street markets consumed by N. cinerea specimens in Pernambuco,

Differences in uptake and killing of pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria by haemocyte subpopulations of penaeid shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, (Boone)

open access: yes, 2016
Phagocytosis is an important function of both invertebrate and vertebrate blood cells. In this study, the phagocytic activity of haemocyte subpopulations of penaeid shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, (Boone), against pathogenic and nonpathogenic particles was

Fluctuations in haemocyte density and microbial load may be used as indicators of fungal pathogenicity in larvae of Galleria mellonella [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A positive correlation exists between the pathogenicity of bacteria and fungi when evaluated in the insect Galleria mellonella and mice. This work sought to determine whether fluctuations in the number of haemocytes and the proliferation of yeast cells ...

Nanotechnology‐Based Immunostimulants in Aquaculture: Mechanisms, Advances and Practical Applications

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Nano‐immunostimulants improve fish health through targeted and controlled delivery of immunostimulatory compounds. Biodegradable polymeric and lipid‐based nanocarriers enhance immune responses, bioavailability and disease resistance while reducing antibiotic dependence and environmental impact.

Haemocyte apoptosis as a general cellular immune response of Lymnaea stagnalis, to a toxicant.

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceThe effects of a xenobiotic on the circulating haemocytes of Lymnaea stagnalis were investigated after short-term (24 h, 96 h) and long-term (504 h) exposure of snails to environmental concentrations.

The role of the haematopoietic tissue in haemocyte production and maturation of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon)

open access: yes, 2002
The haematopoietic tissue (HPT) of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) is located in different areas in the cephalothorax, mainly at the dorsal side of the stomach and in the onset of the maxillipeds and, to a lesser extent, towards the antennal ...
