Dietary Betaine Mitigates Hepatic Steatosis and Inflammation Induced by a High-Fat-Diet by Modulating the Sirt1/Srebp-1/Pparɑ Pathway in Juvenile Black Seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii)

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
The present study aimed to elucidate the mechanism of dietary betaine, as a lipid-lowering substance, on the regulation of lipid metabolism and inflammation in juvenile black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii) fed a high fat diet.

Structure determination of new algal toxins using NMR methods [PDF]

, 2006
Shellfish are considered a delicacy by many consumers. In NZ, as in many overseas countries, there is a now thriv¬ing shellfish industry servicing both domestic and inter-national markets. Periodically shellfish accumulate harm¬ful levels of a variety of

Monkeys overharvest shellfish

eLife, 2017
The use of stone tools by macaques in Thailand has reduced the size and population density of coastal shellfish; previously it was thought that tool-assisted overharvesting effects resulted uniquely from human activity.

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

Metabolic and nutritional effects of vitamin A on growth, lipid metabolism, antioxidant capacity and hepatopancreas health of juvenile mud crab (Scylla paramamosain)

Aquaculture Reports
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the effects of different vitamin A (VA) level on growth performance, lipid metabolism, antioxidant capacity and hepatopancreas health of juvenile mud crab (Scylla paramamosain).

Integrative Transcriptome Sequencing Reveals the Molecular Difference of Maturation Process of Ovary and Testis in Mud Crab Scylla paramamosain

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The mud crab Scylla paramamosain is a species with significant sexual dimorphism in growth rate and body size, of which the females are of higher economic and nutritional values than the males.

The Effect of Amino Acids on the Formation of Amorphous Calcium Carbonate Nanoparticles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biomineral formation often proceeds via the assembly of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) nanoparticles with narrow size distributions. Using in situ SAXS coupled to a stopped‐flow device, we follow synthetic ACC formation with a 10 ms time resolution and show that amino acids narrow the size distribution at low supersaturation, highlighting their key ...

Cholesterol Modifies Nutritional Values and Flavor Qualities in Female Swimming Crab (Portunus trituberculatus)

Aquaculture Nutrition
The quality of crustacean aquatic products is affected by feed. Cholesterol (CHO), an essential element for crustacean growth, has been widely supplemented in diet, but its food quality regulation remains unclear.

A Biologically‐Architected Wear and Damage‐Resistant Nanoparticle Coating From the Radular Teeth of Cryptochiton stelleri

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The ultrahard teeth of mollusks that feed on rocky substrates contain a wear‐resistant coating on their surfaces consisting of densely packed mesocrystalline magnetic nanoparticles within an organic matrix. These coatings display significant hardness and toughness through their highly controlled mesocrystalline architectures.
