Construction of wound repair model and function of recombinant TIMP from Hyriopsis cumingii

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2021
Metalloproteinase tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) have the activity of inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which can promote cell growth, bind to the matrix, inhibit angiogenesis, and play a key role in extracellular matrix (ECM) metabolism regulation.

The novel matrix protein hic7 of hyriopsis cumingii participates in the formation of the shell and pearl

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2021
Shell matrix proteins have important roles in the biomineralization of shells. In this study, we isolated and identified a novel shell matrix protein gene, hic7, from the mussel Hyriopsis cumingii. The cDNA of hic7 was 459 bp long, including a 240-bp open reading frame.

Cyp17a effected by endocrine disruptors and its function in gonadal development of Hyriopsis cumingii

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2022
Estrogens and androgens that coexist in the aquatic environment could potentially affect shellfish, however, endocrine disrupting effects of them in shellfish are significant. As an important aquaculture shellfish in China, Hyriopsis cumingii has remarkable economic benefits.

The Mantle Exosome and MicroRNAs of Hyriopsis cumingii Involved in Nacre Color Formation

Marine Biotechnology, 2019
The nacre color of shells has an effect on the pearl color in Hyriopsis cumingii and is an important indicator for its value. The nacre is part of the shell, and some studies have shown that exosomes of the mantle are involved in the formation of shells.

The mantle exosome proteins of Hyriopsis cumingii participate in shell and nacre color formation

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part D: Genomics and Proteomics, 2021
Pearl color is closely related to the nacre color of shell in Hyriopsis cumingii, and pearl color has a huge impact on its price. The nacre is an important part of the shell, and studies have suggested that mantle exosomes participated in shell formation. Exosomes contain many different proteins that are involved in different biological processes.

Six defensins from the triangle-shell pearl mussel Hyriopsis cumingii

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2011
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are the first line of defense of invertebrates against invading pathogens. Defensins, unique AMPs, have a cysteine-stabilized α-helix and β-sheet (CSαβ) motif. In invertebrates, defensins have been reported in arthropods and mussels.

Study on the Role of Mitophagy Receptor PHB2 in Doubly Uniparental Inheritance of Hyriopsis cumingii

Marine Biotechnology, 2023
In bivalves, the heterogeneity of mitochondrial DNA and its unique mode of transmission have been the focus of attention, which is called doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI). Prohibitin-2 (phb2) is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein that is a key mitophagy receptor for parental mitochondrial removal.

Identification of Foxl2 in freshwater mussel Hyriopsis cumingii and its involvement in sex differentiation

Gene, 2020
The freshwater mussel Hyriopsis cumingii, is the most important species for pearl culture in China. At present, the mechanisms underlying sex differentiation and determination remain unclear in this species. Herein the open reading frame (ORF) of Foxl2 from H.

Dynamic structural color in the nacre of Hyriopsis Cumingii and its cause

Optik, 2017
Abstract The structural color and microstructure of the nacre of Hyriopsis Cumingii were investigated by using reflection spectra, theoretical simulation, and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The results indicate that the structural color of the nacre of Hyriopsis Cumingii can obviously red-shift from blue to red along the growth pattern ...

Identification and functional characterization of a sTRAIL gene in mussel Hyriopsis cumingii

Aquaculture, 2013
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL/Apo2L) plays an important role in many biological processes including immune response and cell apoptosis. Here, we identified a soluble TRAIL homolog in a mussel species, Hyriopsis cumingii (designated Hc-sTRAIL), which shows significant structural and functional similarities to mammalian ...
