Sequence analysis, homology modeling, tissue expression, and potential functions of seven putative acetylcholinesterases in the spider Cupiennius salei

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 60, Issue 7, Page 5785-5811, October 2024.
Analysis of the Cupiennius salei transcriptome identified seven putative Acetylcholine esterase (AChE) genes, six for soluble AChEs and one, CsAChE7, likely encoding a membrane‐bound synaptic AChE. Soluble AChEs were expressed in the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, muscle, and heart, while CsAChE7 was exclusive to the nervous system.

Stem cells and fluid flow drive cyst formation in an invertebrate excretory organ.

open access: yes, 2015
Cystic kidney diseases (CKDs) affect millions of people worldwide. The defining pathological features are fluid-filled cysts developing from nephric tubules due to defective flow sensing, cell proliferation and differentiation.

Variation in Whole‐Body Regeneration Between Botrylloides Morphs and Species

open access: yesJournal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Marine invertebrates exhibit an impressive regenerative capacity. Among these lineages, colonial ascidians possess the unique ability of whole‐body regeneration (WBR), in which a new adult (zooid) body is restored. Botrylloides species exemplify this regenerative capacity by regenerating new adults solely from vascular tissue within approximately 2 ...

Analysis of ultrastructural morphometric changes of pigeon kidneys affected by colibacteriosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
. The article provides data on the morphometric changes in the kidneys of pigeons with colibacteriosis. Patho-morphological examination of the kidneys revealed focal hyperemia of the kidney cortical area and edema of the loose fibrous tissue.

Transgenic human nephrin in Drosophila nephrocytes facilitates variant analysis

open access: yesKidney International
Nephrin, the key structural protein of the slit diaphragm, is encoded by NPHS1. Pathogenic variants in this gene are the primary cause of congenital nephrotic syndrome. About 400 variants have been described but functional characterization in vitro is very limited.Here, we express human nephrin in Drosophila nephrocytes, which possess a molecularly ...

Insights on cytotoxic cells of the colonial ascidian Botryllus schlosseri [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Morula cells (MCs) represent the most abundant circulating hemocyte of the compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri. They are cytotoxic cells involved in the rejection reaction between contacting, genetically incompatible colonies.

EVALUATION OF SOME ANTIOXIDANTS’ EFFECTS IN KIDNEY HISTOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF WEANED PIGS, INTOXICATED WITH DEOXYNIVALENOL (DON)

open access: yesScientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
Deoxynivalenol is a mycotoxin produced by fungi of the Fusarium genera, which are abundant in various cereal crops and processed grains. In order to protect cell structure within the tissues studied, we tried various experimental variants by ...

Molecular mechanisms that stabilize short term synaptic plasticity during presynaptic homeostatic plasticity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Presynaptic homeostatic plasticity (PHP) compensates for impaired postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptor function through a rapid, persistent adjustment of neurotransmitter release, an effect that can exceed 200%.

The Protective Effects of Probiotic Bacteria on Cadmium Toxicity in Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
One of the useful properties of probiotic bacteria is their capacity to bind different targets, thus eliminating them through feces. It is supposed that one of these targets could be cadmium, a widespread environmental toxicant that causes various ...

Cilastatin protects against imipenem-induced nephrotoxicity via inhibition of renal organic anion transporters (OATs)

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2019
Imipenem is a carbapenem antibiotic. However, Imipenem could not be marketed owing to its instability and nephrotoxicity until cilastatin, an inhibitor of renal dehydropeptidase-I (DHP-I), was developed.
