Diversity and selective pressures of anticoagulants in three medicinal leeches (Hirudinida: Hirudinidae, Macrobdellidae) [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2013
AbstractAlthough medicinal leeches have long been used as treatment for various ailments because of their potent anticoagulation factors, neither the full diversity of salivary components that inhibit coagulation, nor the evolutionary selection acting on them has been thoroughly investigated.

Arhynchobdellida (Annelida: Oligochaeta: Hirudinida): phylogenetic relationships and evolution

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2004
A remarkable diversity of life history strategies, geographic distributions, and morphological characters provide a rich substrate for investigating the evolutionary relationships of arhynchobdellid leeches. The phylogenetic relationships, using parsimony analysis, of the order Arhynchobdellida were investigated using nuclear 18S and 28S rDNA ...

Hemolymph analyses in medicinal leeches Hirudo verbana and H. sulukii (Hirudinida: Hirudinidae)

The aim of this study was to determine the hemocyte type of medicinal leeches, Hirudo sulukii and H. verbana. It was also determined the fractions of hemolymph proteins in these leech species. According to the analyses, four types of hemocyte (prohemocyte, plasmatocyte, granulocyte, and eleocyte) were detected in two species.
