Spectral sensitivity of the dogfish shark (Scyliorhinus canicula)
Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2006The action spectrum of the electroretinographic (ERG) b-wave and the unmasked late receptor potential (LRP) were measured under a variety of conditions (isolated eyecup, detached retina, b-wave recording in fresh preparations, LRP measurements after low-temperature aging, dark and light adaptation).

Humoral immune response of the small-spotted catshark, Scyliorhinus canicula
Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2013Cartilaginous fishes are the oldest group in which an adaptive immune system based on immunoglobulin-superfamily members is found. This manuscript compares humoral immune function in small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) with that described for spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias), another member of the Squalomorphi superorder, and nurse shark ...

Cutaneous O2 and CO2 exchanges in the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula
Respiration Physiology, 1982Total and cutaneous O2 and CO2 exchanges were studied in the unanesthetized, spinalectomized dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula. Total oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide output were measured with an open flow respirometer. Cutaneous fluxes of O2 and CO2 were determined on the tail, confined in the posterior compartment of a two-chambered respirometer, in ...

Cd-, Zn-, Cu-binding protein in the elasmobranch Scyliorhinus canicula
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1985A Cd-, Zn-, Cu-binding protein was isolated from the liver of dogfish subjected to environmental experimental contamination (50 ppm Cd). It was also found in liver from untreated fish. This protein has a high absorption at 250 nm and a low absorption at 280 nm, suggesting a mercaptide bond and a lack of aromatic amino acids.

Incorporation of [1-14C]-glucosamine in a selacian Scyliorhinus canicula
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1973Abstract 1. 1. d -[1- 14 C]-Glucosamine was injected into the hearts of small dogfish ( Scyliorhinus canicula ) in order to study its incorporation into serum glycoproteins, liver glycoproteins and glycogen. 2. 2. The radioactive label, in its free form, disappeared rather rapidly from the blood and, after a delay, radioactivity was found ...

Characterization of a chymosin-like pepsin from the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 19871. Pepsin II extracted from the gastric mucosa of Scyliorhinus canicula has been characterized and compared to calf chymosin. 2. The kcat and Km of the dogfish enzyme for the synthetic hexapeptide Leu-Ser-Phe(NO2)-Nle-Ala-Leu-OMe have been determined. The kcat/Km ratio is close to that of calf chymosin.

Development of the lymphomyeloid system in the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 1993Previous studies on the morphology of the lymphomyeloid tissues in the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula, have been confined to adults. This study was restricted to the structure and functioning of the developing immune system in embryonic and post-hatch dogfish. A major feature of the developing immune system in S.

Cardiovascular Actions of Dogfish Urotensin I in the Dogfish,Scyliorhinus canicula
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1998A synthetic replicate of dogfish urotensin 1 (U-I), a 41-amino-acid residue peptide isolated from an extract of the caudal spinal cord region of the European spotted dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula was prepared in order to study its cardiovascular actions in the species of origin.

Cardiovascular actions of dogfish urotensin II in the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1993Bolus injections of synthetic dogfish urotensin II (0.1-1.0 nmol) into the celiac artery of the conscious dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula (n = 8) resulted in sustained and dose-dependent increases in arterial blood pressure and pulse pressure. A maximum rise in mean arterial pressure of 10.5 +/- 1.2 mmHg (equivalent to 38.6 +/- 4.2% over mean basal ...
