Graphical Abstract Abstract Choice of microalgae diet affects production outcomes in bivalve hatcheries. This study aimed to identify an optimal microalgae diet to improve hard clam, Mercenaria mercenaria, juvenile production. Four microalgae species (Tisochrysis lutea, Pavlova lutheri, Chaetoceros gracilis and Cyclotella nana) in six dietary ...

Hydrolyzed conchiolin protein inhibits melanogenesis through PKA/CREB and MEK/ERK signalling pathways. [PDF]
Our findings suggest that Hydrolyzed conchiolin protein (HCP) possesses an anti‐melanogenic properties. HCP affects MITF expression and inhibits melanogenesis by regulating the PKA/CREB, MEK/ERK pathways. Abstract Objective Hydrolyzed conchiolin protein (HCP) derived from pearl and nacre extracts exerts skin‐lightening effects; however, the underlying ...
