Involvement of PLA2, COX and LOX inRhinella arenarumoocyte maturation
SummaryInRhinella arenarum, progesterone is the physiological nuclear maturation inducer that interacts with the oocyte surface and starts a cascade of events that leads to germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD). Polyunsaturated fatty acids and their metabolites produced through cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways play an important role in ...

Participation of PLA2 and PLC in DhL-induced activation ofRhinella arenarumoocytes
SummaryRhinella arenarumoocytes can be artificially activated, a process known as parthenogenesis, by a sesquiterpenic lactone of the guaianolide group, dehydroleucodine (DhL). Transient increases in the concentration of cytosolic Ca2+are essential to trigger egg activation events. In this sense, the 1-4-5 inositol triphosphate receptors (IP3R) seem to

Developmental toxicity and risk assessment of nonylphenol to the South American toad, Rhinella arenarum [PDF]
The toxicity of Nonylphenol, an emerging pollutant, on the common South American toad Rhinella arenarum was stage and time dependent, thus Median Lethal Concentrations (LC50) for acute (96h), short-term chronic (168h) and chronic exposure (336h) were 1.06; 0.96 and 0.17mgNP/L from embryonic period (S.4), whereas for exposure from larvae (S.25), LC50 ...

Slope-based and geometric encoding of a goal location by the terrestrial toad (Rhinella arenarum).
The current study was designed to test for the ability of terrestrial toads, Rhinella arenarum, to use slope as source of spatial information to locate a goal, and investigate the relative importance of slope and geometric information for goal localization.

Phospholipid changes in Rhinella arenarum embryos under different acclimation conditions to copper
Abstract We report phospholipid changes in Rhinella arenarum embryos after applying three acclimation protocols to copper between 40 and 420 ng L − 1 . The lower and higher acclimation treatments resulted in embryos' enhanced resistance to this metal.
