Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Due to a broad spectrum of active ingredients, snail slime presents a variety of exciting physical properties and chemical reactivities. Especially in the role of the reduction‐ and stabilizing agent for the manufacturing of gold nanoparticles, its great potential is revealed. Utilising the proteins found in slime, Nanoparticle‐comprising hydrogels are

Terrestrial gastropod responses to an ecosystem-level calcium manipulation in a northern hardwood forest [PDF]
, 2007 The effects of acid deposition on soil calcium (Ca), and in turn on land snail populations, have been of heightened concern for several decades. We compiled a 10 year record (1997–2006) of gastropod abundance on two small watersheds at the Hubbard Brook ...

Modelling Motion‐Induced Signal Corruption in Steady‐State Diffusion MRI
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Diffusion‐weighted steady‐state free precession (DW‐SSFP) is a diffusion imaging sequence achieving high SNR efficiency. A key challenge for in vivo DW‐SSFP is the sequence's severe motion sensitivity, currently limiting investigations to low or no motion regimes.

Morphological variation of the spermatheca in the garden snail Cantareus aspersus - article in French with an abridged English version [PDF]
, 2007 articleSpermathecal morphology is known to play an important role in postcopulatory sexual selection of many invertebrates. In helicid land snails, the spermatheca is subdivided into tubules, whose number is sometimes subject to a strong inter-individual

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.Lung cancer (LC) remains the leading cause of global cancer‐related death. Phytochemicals from medicinal plants are increasingly being considered as potential LC treatment agents due to their multi‐targeted action, safety, and accessibility. These have anticancer properties by regulating key molecular signaling pathways.

Central chemoreceptor stimulus in the terrestrial, pulmonate snail, Helix apersa
Respiration Physiology, 1994 We studied the effect of hypercapnic and fixed acid central chemoreceptor stimulation on the pneumostome in the pulmonate snail, Helix aspersa. We found that focal stimulation of the central chemoreceptor area of the pulmonate snail brain with hypercapnic solutions more effectively increased the pneumostomal area than did fixed acid stimulation at the ...

VIEW, EarlyView.PHF1 is a known epigenetic regulator involved in transcriptional silencing in cancer. In this study, we identified PHF1 as an oncogene that promotes PDAC progression and demonstrated that its inhibition induces ferroptosis. Mechanistically, PHF1 physically interacts with the FBL/NOP56/NOP58 snoRNP complex to enhance the IRES‐dependent translation of ...
