The Scaly-foot Snail genome and implications for the origins of biomineralised armour

Nature Communications, 2020
The Scaly-foot Snail, Chrysomallon squamiferum, presents a combination of biomineralised features, reminiscent of enigmatic early fossil taxa with complex shells and sclerites such as sachtids, but in a recently-diverged living species which even has ...

Snail promotes ovarian cancer progression by recruiting myeloid-derived suppressor cells via CXCR2 ligand upregulation

Nature Communications, 2018
Snail is a major transcriptional factor that induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In this study, we explore the effect of Snail on tumor immunity.

Optimizing the Nonlinearity and Dissipation of a SNAIL Parametric Amplifier for Dynamic Range [PDF]

Physical Review Applied, 2018
We present a new quantum-limited Josephson-junction-based 3-wave-mixing parametric amplifier, the SNAIL Parametric Amplifier (SPA), which uses an array of SNAILs (Superconducting Nonlinear Asymmetric Inductive eLements) as the source of tunable ...

Effects of BPA in Snails [PDF]

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2006
It is an ethical requirement that new findings be presented in light of and in conjunction with a balanced evaluation of the current knowledge and published literature. We believe that Oehlmann et al. (2006) violated this general principle in several ways. For example, the authors inferred that prosobranch snails have a functional estrogen receptor and

Waste snail shell derived heterogeneous catalyst for biodiesel production by the transesterification of soybean oil

RSC Advances, 2018
A waste snail shell (Pila spp.) derived catalyst was used to produce biodiesel from soybean oil at room temperature for the first time. The snail shell was calcined at different temperatures of 400–1000 °C.

USP37 Promotes Lung Cancer Cell Migration by Stabilizing Snail Protein via Deubiquitination

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Snail is a prominent epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) transcription factor and promotes metastasis. However, Snail protein is unstable and is quickly degraded through ubiquitination-mediated proteasome pathway.
