Biochemical and Pharmacological Studies on Kynurenic Acid Metabolism in the Helix pomatia—Snail Model of Learning and Memory

open access: yesBiomolecules
Kynurenic acid (KYNA), a metabolite of the L-kynurenine pathway of L-tryptophan degradation, is an endogenous blocker of glutamate ionotropic excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptors and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs).

Effect of microclimatic conditions on the reproductive behavior of the Helix aspersa

open access: yesScientia Agropecuaria, 2013
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of microclimatic conditions (temperature and relative humidity) on the reproduction of land snails (Helix aspersa).

Use of the dart apparatus by the hermaphroditic land snail Polymita muscarum (Lea, 1834). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Many species of pulmonate land snails are equipped with one or more so-called "love darts". Even though the number and shape of these calcareous darts vary considerably between species, dart use has only been investigated in very few species.

Food allergy to Helix terrestre (snail).

open access: yesAllergologia et immunopathologia, 1990
Among the rare foods capable of producing food allergies is the snail (Helix terrestre). The snail is a delicacy eaten in Spain, France and Portugal. This study presents the findings of an allergic study of 10 patients with this infrequent food allergy during the past 10 years.

Associative learning phenomena in the snail (Helix aspersa): Conditioned inhibition [PDF]

open access: yesLearning & Behavior, 2011
Two experiments using garden snails (Helix aspersa) showed conditioned inhibition using both retardation and summation tests. Conditioned inhibition is a procedure by which a stimulus becomes a predictor of the absence of a relevant event--the unconditioned stimulus (US).

Physiological, Diurnal and Stress-Related Variability of Cadmium-Metallothionein Gene Expression in Land Snails.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The terrestrial Roman snail Helix pomatia has successfully adapted to strongly fluctuating conditions in its natural soil habitat. Part of the snail's stress defense strategy is its ability to express Metallothioneins (MTs).

Some quality parameters of land snail meat - Helix pomatia [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinarski Glasnik, 2004
Considering the tradition in our regions to collect land snails (Helix pomatia) for export, which is "disrupted" by social control resulting in limited possibilities to develop this attractive activity, there is a great interest lately for land snail ...

FGFR Like1 drives esophageal cancer progression via EMT, PI3K/Akt, and notch signalling: insights from clinical data and next‐generation sequencing analysis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 979-999, May 2026.
Clinical analysis reveals significant dysregulation of FGFRL1 in esophageal cancer (EC) patients. RNAi‐coupled next‐generation sequencing (NGS) and in vitro study reveal FGFRL1‐mediated EC progression via EMT, PI3K/Akt, and Notch pathways. Functional assays confirm its role in tumor growth, migration, and invasion.

Responses of Withdrawal Interneurons to Serotonin Applications in Naïve and Learned Snails Are Different

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Long-term changes in membrane potential after associative training were described previously in identified premotor interneurons for withdrawal of the terrestrial snail Helix.

Invasive and non-invasive congeneric Centaurea (Asteraceae) show contrasting patterns of herbivory by snails [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background and aims – Once introduced into new regions, exotic species often experience shifts in resource allocation in response to the different environmental conditions found in the introduction range. Plants naturally respond to specialist herbivores
