Identification and immunoregulatory role of cathepsin A in the red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarkii

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2020
Cathepsins are a group of lysosomal hydrolytic enzymes, broadly distributed in animals, and regulate various physiological processes. However, the immune functions of cathepsins are poorly understood in invertebrates. Therefore, to further provide information about the importance of cathepsins in the innate immune system of crustaceans, cathepsin A ...

Hormones in the red swamp crayfish

1996
Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the unique hormone structures in the red swamp crayfish. Several aspects of molting hormones and the possible biosynthetic significance involved in the molting process are described in the chapter. The chemical and molecular information for crustacean endocrinology is presented and the role of ecdysteroids as ...

Cadmium and lead uptake by red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) of Louisiana

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1993
Environmental contamination by heavy metals such as cadmium and lead is generally reflected by an increase in the tissue residues of aquatic animals. This is also true for fresh-water crayfish as reported by Bagatto and Khan (1987) for Orconectes virilis collected in the vicinity of Canadian smelters.

A mannose receptor is involved in the anti-Vibrio defense of red swamp crayfish

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2018
Mannose receptor (MR), a member of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), is the first MR family member to be discovered that plays a critical role in immunity. The function of MRs has been reported in mammals and teleosts while none in invertebrates.

Antibacterial activity of hemocyanin from red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii)

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2018
Hemocyanins (HMC): the copper-containing respiratory proteins present in invertebrate hemolymph, which plays many essential roles in the immune system. Currently, little is known about the HMC domains of Procambarus clarkii (P. clarkii) and their function in antimicrobial immune response.

Bioaccumulation of lead nitrate in red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii)

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 1997
Abstract Crayfish were exposed to intermediate concentrations of lead nitrate (150 μgl−1 and 1100 μgl−1) for periods up to 7 weeks. Lead clearance was monitored at 3 weeks following the 7 week exposure to the lower concentration. Lead bioaccumulation was demonstrated to be a time- and dose-dependent phenomenon in gills, hepatopancreas and abdominal ...
