Immunomodulatory role of crustacean cardioactive peptide in the mud crab Scylla paramamosain

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2022
Crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) is a pleiotropic neuropeptide, but its immunomodulatory role is not clear. Herein, the mud crab Scylla paramamosain provides a primitive model to study crosstalk between the neuroendocrine and immune systems. In this study, in situ hybridization showed that Sp-CCAP positive signal localized in multiple cells in ...

Identification of physicochemical properties of Scylla paramamosain allergen, arginin kinase

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2012
AbstractBACKGROUND: Arginine kinase (AK) is expressed in a wide variety of species, including human food sources (seafood) and pests (cockroaches and moths), and has been reported as a novel allergen. However, there has been little research on the allergenicity of AK in crustaceans.

SpBAG3 assisted WSSV infection in mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) by inhibiting apoptosis

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2022
The function of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) family proteins can be divided into two categories: anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic. As an anti-apoptotic protein, Bcl2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) plays a key role in regulating apoptosis, development, cell movement, and autophagy, and mediating the adaptability of cells to stimulation. However, SpBAG3 has

Molecular cloning and characterization of crustin from mud crab Scylla paramamosain

Molecular Biology Reports, 2008
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are important components of the host innate immune response against microbial invasion. In the present study, we report the identification and characterization of a crustin (CrusSp) from the hemocyte of mud crab, Scylla paramamosain using an expressed sequence tag (EST) and rapid amplification cDNA end (RACE) approaches ...

Role of neuroparsin 1 in vitellogenesis in the mud crab, Scylla paramamosain

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2020
Neuroparsin (NP) is an important neuropeptide in invertebrates. It is well-known that NP displays multiple biological activities, including antidiuretic and inhibition of vitellogenesis in insects. However, the information about its effect in crustaceans is scarce.

Large lipid transfer proteins in hepatopancreas of the mud crab Scylla paramamosain

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part D: Genomics and Proteomics, 2021
Large lipid transfer proteins (LLTPs) are extensively involved in various physiological processes. In the present study, five LLTP sequences encoding apolipocrustacein 1 (apoCr 1), apoCr 2, precursor of the large discoidal lipoprotein (dLp) and high density lipoprotein/β-glucan binding protein (HDL-BGBP) (dLp-BGBP), microsomal triglyceride transfer ...
