Antitumor activity of edible fishes (Channa striata and Anabas testudineus) and gastropods (Helix aspersa and Pila virens) rudimentary mucus against HT-29 cell line and its biochemical properties [PDF]

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology
Background The mucus from fish and gastropods contains a wide range of bioactive molecules with biomedical properties. The fish and gastropods were collected from Oragadam lake, Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, India. In this study, we wanted to examine

Primary structure of a copper-binding metallothionein from mantle tissue of the terrestrial gastropod Helix pomatia L [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1997
A novel copper-binding metallothionein (MT) has been purified from mantle tissue of the terrestrial snail Helix pomatia using gel-permeation chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography and reverse-phase HPLC. Copper was removed from the thionein by addition of ammonium tetrathiomolybdate.

Entomological Investigation of the Main Entomatic Adversities for Terrestrial Gastropods Helix aspersa Müller (Mollusca Gastropoda Pulmonata): A Preliminary Study in Sardinian Heliciculture Farms [PDF]

Insects, 2022
In the years 2020–2022, a survey was carried out with the aim of controlling the entomofauna present in seven Sardinian snail farms. The sampling was carried out during the spring–summer and autumn–winter periods, corresponding to the production cycles of the Helix aspersa snails (Müller, 1774), the species most frequently bred in snail farms.

Marchantia polymorpha Defense Against Snail Herbivory [PDF]

Plant-Environment Interactions
During the course of evolution, higher plants have developed efficient strategies to cope with herbivory from arthropods. Upon perception of herbivore‐derived cues, the jasmonic acid (JA) signaling pathway is activated and triggers the expression of ...

Histological changes and biochemical parameters in the hepatopancreas of terrestrial gastropod Helix aspersa as biomarkers of neonicotinoid insecticide exposure [PDF]

African Journal of Biotechnology, 2012
En este estudio, se utilizaron caracoles adultos, Helix aspersa, para estimar el efecto del insecticida aneonicotinoide (tiametoxam) sobre los parámetros bioquímicos y los cambios histológicos en el hepatopáncreas de este gasterópodo después de un tratamiento de seis semanas. Durante este período, los caracoles fueron expuestos por ingestión y contacto

Evaluation of Alternative Sources of Proteins and Other Nutrients with Potential Applications in Fish Nutrition [PDF]

Molecules
The European Union’s (EU) agricultural self-sufficiency is challenged by its reliance on imported plant proteins, particularly soy from the Americas, contributing to deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions.

Contamination of terrestrial gastropods Helix aspersa Maxima with¹³⁷Cs,⁸⁵Sr,¹³³Ba and^123MTe by direct and trophic pathways [PDF]

Radioprotection, 2005
Contaminations of the terrestrial gastropods Helix aspersa maxima by direct deposition or labelled food ingestion of 137 Cs, 85 Sr, 133 Ba and 123m Te were carried out under laboratory conditions. The aim of this study was to compare the two contamination pathways: direct and trophic, in terms of individual mortality and radionuclide uptake ...

Studies on neuronal 5-HT in a gastropod mollusc, helix pomatia (L.)

, 1973
This thesis describes information obtained on the structure of 5-HT-containing neurons, on the mechanisms of transport of 5-HT and its precursors into and within neurons, on the nature of the blood supply to the CNS, and on the function of 5-HT-containing neurons within the CNS of Hellix pomatia.

Characterisation of neurofilament protein nf70 mrna from the gastropod Helix aspersa reveals that neuronal and non-neuronal intermediate filament proteins of cerebral ganglia arise from separate lamin-related genes [PDF]

Journal of Cell Science, 1995
ABSTRACT The neuronal cytoplasmic intermediate filament (IF) protein HeNF70 of the gastropod Helix aspersa is identified by sequence analysis of the corresponding 4,600 bp cDNA isolated from a cerebral ganglion cDNA library. HeNF70 shares 60% sequence identity with the neuronal LoNF70 protein of the cephalopod Loligo pealei and only 36 ...
