Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

Precision post‐translational modification of PML defines neuroblastoma clinical behaviour
Promyelocytic leukaemia protein (PML) loss is significantly associated with advanced disease stage, metastasis, relapse, therapy resistance, and poor survival in neuroblastoma. Elevated phosphorylation of PML at S518 promotes PML destabilisation and predicts adverse clinical outcomes. The phosphorylated PML (pPML)/PML ratio provides enhanced prognostic

During the summer fallow period, Pomacea canaliculata enters estivation under high temperature and drought stress yet maintains a survival rate exceeding 92%. Restructuring of the gut microbiota and metabolic adaptations in the liver, particularly the stability of fatty acid profiles, underpin its strong estivation tolerance.

The Planorbid Snail Biomphalaria glabrata Expresses a Hemocyanin-Like Sequence in the Albumen Gland.
The parasitic flatworm Schistosoma mansoni, causative agent of human intestinal schistosomiasis in South America, relies importantly on the freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata as intermediate host to achieve development of cercariae that infect humans.

Molluscan mega-hemocyanin: an ancient oxygen carrier tuned by a ~550 kDa polypeptide
Background The allosteric respiratory protein hemocyanin occurs in gastropods as tubular di-, tri- and multimers of a 35 × 18 nm, ring-like decamer with a collar complex at one opening. The decamer comprises five subunit dimers.

Detection of Single Oxygen Molecules with Fluorescence-Labeled Hemocyanins
This study introduces a method to detect individual oxygen molecules by fluorescence microscopy of single hemocyanins. These respiratory proteins from a tarantula bind oxygen with high affinity.
