Manila clams, Venerupis philippinarum (Adams and Reeve, 1850), were experimentally challenged with two Vibrio tapetis strains: CECT4600T, the causative agent of Brown Ring Disease (BRD); and LP2 supposedly non-pathogenic in V. philippinarum. Changes in phenoloxidase (PO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), two major enzymes involved in immunity, were studied in two tissues, the mantle and hemolymph...
Ruditapes philippinarum is a member of the Veneridae family of marine bivalve molluscs. RPOI‑1 (Ruditapes philippinarum oligopeptide) is a tetrapeptide that can be extracted from Ruditapes philippinarum by means of enzymolysis. This study showed that RPOI‑1 strongly inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in DU‑145 human prostate cancer cells. When cells were treated with varying concentra...
Mortalities of the Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum (Adams & Reeve, 1850) were reported in southern England (Kent and Poole Harbour) during late spring of 2008. In response to these reported mortalities, samples were collected from 5 sites across the south coast of England. Clams were sampled for both histology and electron microscopy. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed unenvelo...
Since 1991, numerous herpesvirus infections associated with high mortality have been reported around the world in various marine bivalve species. In order to determine whether these infections are due to ostreid herpesvirus-1 (OsHV1), a previously characterized pathogen of the Japanese oyster (Crassostrea gigas), PCR analysis was carried out on 30 samples of larvae collected from four bivalve s...
Mitochondria have an active role in germ line development, and their inheritance dynamics are relevant to this process. Recently, a novel protein (RPHM21) was shown to be encoded in sperm by the male-transmitted mtDNA of Ruditapes philippinarum, a species with Doubly Uniparental Inheritance (DUI) of mitochondria. In silico analyses suggested a viral origin of RPHM21, and we hypothesized that th...
Doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI) provides an intriguing system for addressing aspects of molecular evolution and intermolecular recombination of mitochondrial DNA. For this reason, a large sequence analysis has been performed on Tapes philippinarum (Bivalvia, Veneridae), which has mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy that is consistent with a DUI. The sequences of a 9.2-kb region (containing 29 g...
To reveal the feeding habits of 3 bivalve species and the effects on the sediment and benthic diatoms, a field experiment was conducted in the estuarine Gamo lagoon, Japan, using enclosures stocked with bivalves. The surface-deposit feeder Macoma contabulata reduced silt–clay, total nitrogen, and total organic carbon content and the δ13C value of the sediment, while the surfacedeposit feeder Nu...
Doubly Uniparental Inheritance (DUI) is one of the most striking exceptions to the common rule of standard maternal inheritance of metazoan mitochondria. In DUI, two mitochondrial genomes are present, showing different transmission routes, one through eggs (F-type) and the other through sperm (M-type). In this paper, we report results from a multiplex real-time quantitative polymerase chain rea...
Galaxolide and tonalide modulate neuroendocrine activity in marine species from two taxonomic groups
Galaxolide (HHCB) and tonalide (AHTN) are polycyclic musk compounds (PMCs) used in household personal care products that have been included on the list as emerging contaminants of environmental concern due to their ubiquity aquatic terrestrial environments. There still exists a dearth information neurotoxicity endocrine disrupting effects these contaminants, especially for marine estuarine spec...
The contamination of microplastics have been reported in a wide array marine organisms, including bivalve molluscs. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence and abundance bivalves from coastal waters Paciran, Lamongan, East Java, Indonesia. High population anthropogenic activities area may lead its organisms. Microplastics were recovered soft tissues three species wild clams, Gafrarium tu...
