Immune Memory-like Responses of Akoya Pearl Oyster to Pinctada Birnavirus

Pathogens
Among accumulating knowledge of invertebrate immune-like responses, antiviral mechanisms in mollusks remain poorly understood. Pinctada birnavirus (PiBV) infects the mantle epithelial cells of the pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata), causing mass mortality of

Genome of Kumamoto Oyster Crassostrea sikamea Provides Insights Into Bivalve Evolution and Environmental Adaptation

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Kumamoto oyster, Crassostrea sikamea, is a marine bivalve naturally distributed along the coasts of southern China and southern Japan, with a hatchery population that has been under domestication in the United States since its introduction from Japan in the 1940s.

A novel birnavirus identified as the causative agent of summer atrophy of pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata (Gould)) [PDF]

PeerJ
The Akoya pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata (Gould)) is the most important species for pearl cultivation in Japan. Mass mortality of 0-year-old juvenile oysters and anomalies in adults, known as summer atrophy, have been observed in major pearl farming areas

Transcriptome‐To‐Phenome Response of Larval Eastern Oysters Under Multiple Drivers of Aragonite Undersaturation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
As oysters emerge in the spotlight for food security and habitat health, sensitive ‐omic features are integral for development of climate‐ready strains and selective breeding programs. Our findings offer novel insights into gene candidates affecting growth and recruitment success within systems that experience seasonal warming, freshwater effluent, and

The receptor genes PfBMPR1B and PfBAMBI are involved in regulating shell biomineralization in the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata

Scientific Reports, 2017
Mounting evidence suggests that TGFβ/BMP signaling pathway is most likely involved in shell biomineralization in molluscs, but the function of pathway receptors is poorly studied. Here, we cloned and identified two homologous BMP receptor genes, PfBMPR1B

Skin’s New Shield: Food‐Derived Bioactive Peptides in Combating Photoaging—An Investigation Into Inhibitory Mechanisms and Structure–Activity Relationships

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
In recent years, skin health has become one of the leading causes of nonfatal disease burden due to the significance of the skin in the body and the ubiquitous presence of ultraviolet radiation that negatively affects skin conditions and causes skin photoaging.
