Pectenovarin, A New Ovarian Carotenoprotein from Japanese Scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis [PDF]

Molecules, 2020
The scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis accumulates carotenoids in the ovary during the maturation stage. Its conspicuous pink color implies the presence of carotenoprotein.

Cell culture and genetic transfection methods for the Japanese scallop, Patinopecten yessoensis [PDF]

FEBS Open Bio, 2021
Cell cultures can simplify assays of biological phenomena; therefore, cell culture systems have been established for many species, even invertebrates. However, there are few primary culture systems from marine invertebrates that can be maintained long ...

Anatomical Distribution of Diarrhetic Shellfish Toxins (DSTs) in the Japanese Scallop Patinopecten yessoensis and Individual Variability in Scallops and Mytilus edulis Mussels: Statistical Considerations [PDF]

Toxins, 2018
Diarrhetic shellfish toxins (DSTs) are a group of phycotoxins that include okadaic acid (OA)/dinophysistoxin (DTX) analogues. At present, detailed data on the distribution of DST is insufficient, and studies of the appropriate sample sizes are lacking ...

De novo characterization of Japanese scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis transcriptome and analysis of its gene expression following cadmium exposure. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Japanese scallop has been cultured on a large-scale in China for many years. However, serious marine pollution in recent years has resulted in considerable loss to this industry.

Assimilation, Accumulation, and Metabolism of Dinophysistoxins (DTXs) and Pectenotoxins (PTXs) in the Several Tissues of Japanese Scallop Patinopecten yessoensis [PDF]

Toxins, 2015
Japanese scallops, Patinopecten yessoensis, were fed with the toxic dinoflagellate Dinophysis fortii to elucidate the relative magnitude of assimilation, accumulation, and metabolism of diarrhetic shellfish toxins (DSTs) and pectenotoxins (PTXs).

Parasitism by pinnotherid crabs in the Japanese scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis: first host record and quantitative assessment of host impacts [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Pea crabs of the family Pinnotheridae are widely known as symbionts or parasites of bivalve mollusks; however, their occurrence and ecological impacts remain poorly documented for many economically important host species.

Exploring cadmium-binding proteins in Japanese scallops Mizuhopecten yessoensis: isolation and characterization. [PDF]

Environ Sci Pollut Res Int
Abstract Scallops (Mizuhopecten yessoensis) accumulate abnormal levels of cadmium (Cd) in their bodies; however, the chemical form of Cd in vivo remains unclear. In this study, Cd concentrations in various scallop tissues were measured, revealing that Cd predominantly accumulated as a water-soluble component within the midgut gland.

Effects of Scallop Mantle Toxin on Intestinal Microflora and Intestinal Barrier Function in Mice [PDF]

Toxins
Previous studies have shown that feeding mice with food containing mantle tissue from Japanese scallops results in aggravated liver and kidney damage, ultimately resulting in mortality within weeks.

Effects of Chronic Low-Salinity Stress on Growth, Survival, Antioxidant Capacity, and Gene Expression in Mizuhopecten yessoensis [PDF]

Biology
Extreme weather events such as heavy rainfall significantly reduce surface salinity in coastal waters, presenting considerable challenges to the aquaculture of Japanese scallops (Mizuhopecten yessoensis) in shallow cage systems.
