Life‐Stage–Specific Hematological Profiles in Yellow Mealworm Beetles (Tenebrio molitor): Reference Intervals and Hemocyte Characterization

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The edible insect industry, driven by the nutritional and environmental benefits of mealworms, faces increasing challenges from pathogens affecting Tenebrio molitor farming systems. Hemocyte‐based health assessments could provide valuable diagnostic insights, yet standardized hemolymph processing protocols and hematological ...

Immunonutritional Effects of Nucleotides and Olive Bioactive Extracts on Growth Performance and Survival of Pacific White Shrimp Upon Vibrio parahaemolyticus (AHPND) Challenge

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The sustainable advancement of aquaculture can be supported using functional feed ingredients with immunomodulatory activity. These studies evaluated the immunonutritional effects of dietary nucleotides (NU) and an olive bioactive extract (OE) in Pacific white shrimp (PWS), Penaeus vannamei. A 56‑day growth trial (n = 1000 PWS; PL42‐43; 1.23 ±

Identification of distinct haemocyte populations from freshwater bivalves Anodonta cygnea and Anodonta anatina using wheat-germ agglutinin (WGA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Haemocytes play a major role in molluscs immunity. Functional studies are however impaired by limited available experimental tools to identify and sort distinct haemocyte populations.

Bioactive peptides in cancer and inflammation: Mechanisms, model systems and clinical translation

open access: yesClinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
Bioactive peptides (BAPs) derived from host, marine, insect, plant and synthetic sources share cationic, amphipathic structures adopting α‐helical, β‐sheet or cyclic conformations. These features underlie anti‐cancer effects, including membrane disruption, apoptosis and cell‐cycle arrest, anti‐metastatic activity, reduced invasion and migration, and ...

The Metabolic Regulatory Role of Argininosuccinate Synthetase (Ass) Under Heat Stress in Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas)

open access: yesFishes
Marine heatwaves repeatedly trigger summer mortality of the farmed Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas), forcing its haemocytes to reprogramme metabolism under thermal stress. The metabolic nodes governing this adaptation remain poorly defined. Integrating

Influence of patient factors on target plasma volume treated attainment rate during double filtration plasmapheresis in patients with hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 30, Issue 5, Page 690-697, October 2026.
Abstract Introduction This study aims to investigate patient factors affecting the rate of plasma volume target attained in hypertriglyceridemic pancreatitis (HTG‐AP) patients undergoing double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP). Methods A retrospective analysis of 82 HTG‐AP‐interpreted patients from January 2019 to April 2024 compared target plasma ...

Knockdown of BgTLR in BS-90 snails decreases haemocyte phagocytic response.

open access: yes, 2016
(A) Mean number of phagocytosed beads per haemocyte. Five BS-90 snails each were injected with siRNA targeting BgTLR or GFP (control) and 96 hours later, haemolymph was extracted from the snails and immediately mixed with ~1 x 106 1μM FITC-labelled ...

Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 576-593, October 2026.
Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

The Effectiveness of β-Glucan Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Endophytic Bacteria Sonneratia alba Leaves on the Immune Response of Litopenaeus vannamei Infected with Vibrio harveyi

open access: yesJournal of Aquaculture Science
Vibrio harveyi can cause mass death in vaname shrimp. The β-Glucan content in Saccharomyces cerevisiae can stimulate the immune system non- specifically. Meanwhile, the endophytic bacteria Sonneratia alba has antibacterial activity.

The Extracellular Matrix Proteins Pericardin and Lonely Heart Modulate the Directionality of Heart Contractions in Infected Mosquitoes

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 123, Issue 1, September 2026.
Pericardin and Lonely heart, which are components of the cardiac extracellular matrix, influence the direction in which the heart of mosquitoes propels hemolymph (blood). ABSTRACT The cardiac extracellular matrix provides structural support to the primary circulatory organ of an insect: a dorsal vessel that is divided into an aorta in the thorax and a ...
