ABSTRACT Early‐life experiences can predict the environments experienced later in life, giving individuals an opportunity to develop adaptive behaviour appropriate to a likely future environment. Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation (DNAm) have been implicated in developmental behavioural plasticity; however, studies investigating this ...

Transcriptional effect of serotonin in the ganglia of Lymnaea stagnalis
The serotonin system (5HT) is highly conserved in both vertebrates and invertebrates, and numerous evidence supports a biological link between 5HT and numerous animal function.

Phytochelatins are metal-binding metabolites found in almost all plant species and some animal groups, including nematodes and annelids, where they can play an important role in detoxifying metals such as cadmium.

Environmental DNA Epigenetics Accurately Predicts the Age of Cultured Fish Larvae
While various biases generally hamper age estimation methods and are not universally applicable to all animal taxa, epigenetic patterns—in particular DNA methylation—were recently demonstrated to have the potential to revolutionize this field as they are accurate and standardized.

The in vitro culture of adult mollusc neurons Lymnaea stagnalis L. and of the mouse neuroblastoma N1E -115, Clone C-1300, are considered as a model to study the effects of cryoprotectants on neuronal cellular membranes.

Sexual selection gradients change over time in a simultaneous hermaphrodite
Sexual selection is generally predicted to act more strongly on males than on females. The Darwin-Bateman paradigm predicts that this should also hold for hermaphrodites.

First evidence of a genetic basis for thermal adaptation in a schistosome host snail
Abstract Freshwater snails play a key role in the transmission of schistosomiasis, a tropical parasitic disease affecting over 150 million people. Adaptation of these snails to local climatic conditions is a critical factor in determining how climate change and other environmental factors influence disease transmission dynamics, yet this potential ...

Monoamines, Insulin and the Roles They Play in Associative Learning in Pond Snails
Molluscan gastropods have long been used for studying the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying learning and memory. One such gastropod, the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis, exhibits long-term memory (LTM) following both classical and operant ...

The proposed model for a pharmacohore of drugs targeting the α4α4 binding site of the (α4)3(β2)2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. The principal α4(+) subunit is coloured in purple‐blue and the α4(−) subunit is coloured in teal. The model encompasses α4α4 selective compounds: CMPI (green) and NS9283 (purple), in addition to classical agonists like ...
