Immunomodulatory effects of decitabine in pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii
Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2022Decitabine (DAC), an inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase, is typically used to reverse DNA methylation and is considered an epigenetic modifying drug. DNA methylation is crucial to the regulation of gene expression without altering genetic information.

Mantle regeneration in the pearl oysters Pinctada fucata and Pinctada margaritifera
Aquaculture, 2005Abstract Mantle tissue in pearl oysters (Pteriidae) is responsible for secreting the mother-of-pearl or nacre lining the shell. When grafted into another oyster, excised mantle tissue, commonly called ‘saibo’, is responsible for cultured pearl production. This study was undertaken to assess the process of mantle regeneration in the Akoya pearl oyster

Arsenic compounds accumulated in pearl oyster Pinctada fucata
Chemosphere, 2003We investigated the water-soluble arsenic compounds present in the soft tissues of both the pearl-free and the pearl-containing pearl oysters. After dividing the soft tissue into five parts, i.e., adductor muscle, foot, mantle, viscera and gill, each part was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass ...

Genetic structure and polymorphisms of the N16 gene in Pinctada fucata
Gene, 2012The molluscan shell is a composite of inorganic crystals comprising calcium carbonate and a minute amount of organic matrix. The organic matrix (OM) is intimately involved in every step of shell formation and has consequently received much attention in recent years. However, most of the deposited information has resulted from cDNA analysis, with little

Cellular Regulation of Biomineralization in Pinctada fucata
2018Because it is widely recognized that the mantle tissue controls nacre precipitation, intensive studies have been conducted to unravel the regulatory mechanism underlying nacre formation. In this chapter, we will focus on the cellular regulation of shell formation in the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata.
