Differential expression of microRNAs in Portunus trituberculatus in response to Hematodinium parasites

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2018
Latest studies have indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in defending against bacterial and viral infections in marine crustacean, whereas little is known regarding the immunological roles of crustacean miRNAs in response to parasitic infection.

Expression and functional analysis of cytoplasmic dynein during spermatogenesis in Portunus trituberculatus

Cell and Tissue Research, 2021
The mechanism of acrosome formation in the crab sperm is a hot topic in crustacean reproduction research. Dynein is a motor protein that performs microtubule-dependent retrograde transport and plays an essential role in spermatogenesis. However, whether cytoplasmic dynein participates in acrosome formation in the crab sperm remains poorly understood ...

Molecular cloning and characterization of prophenoloxidase gene in swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2010
Phenoloxidase (PO), a melanin-synthesizing enzyme, found as a zymogen (proPO) in hemolymp, plays an important role in arthropod defence. In this study, a prophenoloxidase (proPO) cDNA was cloned from the haemocytes of swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus by a reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA end

Transcriptome analysis of different stages of testis development in Portunus trituberculatus

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part D: Genomics and Proteomics
The swimming crab (Portunus trituberculatus) is an important marine economic species, however its artificial breeding yield is relatively low. Currently, the main challenge faced by the swimming crab seed industry is the reliance on wild populations for seed cultivation, which results in unstable yield and quality, affecting the healthy development of ...

Characterization of three caspases and their pathogen-induced expression pattern in Portunus trituberculatus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2017
Caspases are a family of proteases involved in many important biological processes including apoptosis and inflammation. In this study, we analyzed the expression patterns and effects on immune response in various tissues of the edible crab Portunus trituberculatus.

Early transcriptional response to the parasitic dinoflagellate Hematodinium in hepatopancreas of Portunus trituberculatus

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2015
The swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus supports a large proportion of crab aquaculture in China. In the last decade, the sustainable culture of this crab was threatened by the parasitic dinoflagellate Hematodinuim, resulting in massive mortality (up to 95%) in severely impacted culture ponds.

The function of Pt-TGFβRI in spermatogenesis of the swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
The Portunus trituberculatus is an economically important aquaculture species, and understanding its spermatogenesis is critical for ensuring sustainable industrial development. Spermatogenesis is regulated by multiple signaling pathways, but the role of the TGFβ signaling pathway remains poorly understood.

Quality changes in gazami crab (Portunus trituberculatus) during refrigeration

Food Chemistry
Gazami crab (Portunus trituberculatus) is prone to spoilage during storage and transportation. More research is needed to determine how to reliably show its freshness and explain the mechanism of quality deterioration. We hypothesized that proteins extracted from crabs can be biomarkers to detect crab muscle quality changes.

Expression and function analysis of metallothionein in the testis of Portunus trituberculatus exposed to cadmium

Aquatic Toxicology, 2013
Metallothioneins (MTs) possess a unique molecular structure that provides metal-binding and redox capabilities. These capabilities include the maintenance of metal equilibria that protect against heavy metals (especially cadmium) and oxidative damage. Past studies have focused on the function of MTs in vertebrates.

Non-coding RNAs and regulatory networks involved in the Ameson portunus (Microsporidia)-Portunus trituberculatus interaction

Fish & Shellfish Immunology
Ameson portunus, the causative agent of "toothpaste disease" in Portunus trituberculatus and "slurry-like syndrome" in Scylla paramamosain, has resulted in considerable economic losses in the marine crab aquaculture industry in China. Practical control strategies are yet unavailable. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are crucial components of gene regulation of
