Octopus vulgaris aquaculture is limited due to poor biological knowledge of the paralarval stages (e.g., digestive system functionality), their nutritional requirements (e.g., adequate live diet) and standardization of rearing techniques. These factors are important in explaining the high mortality rate observed in this developmental stage under culture conditions. For a better understanding of...

Digestive physiology is one of the bottlenecks of octopus aquaculture. Although, there are successful experimentally formulated feeds, knowledge of the digestive physiology of cephalopods is fragmented, and focused mainly on Octopus vulgaris. Considering that the digestive physiology could vary in tropical and sub-tropical species through temperature modulations of the digestive dynamics and nu...

diabetes: Not only is every digestive organ potentially affected by diabetes, but the liver and exocrine pancreas may also have a modulating if not causal role in the development of diabetes. Physiological abnormalities associated with diabetes have been described in every part of the digestive tract where measurements can be made. This chapter focuses on the relationships between diabetes and ...

BACKGROUND Urothelial Carcinoma Associated 1 (UCA1) was an originally identified lncRNA in bladder cancer. Previous studies have reported that UCA1 played a significant role in various types of cancer. This study aimed to clarify the prognostic value of UCA1 in digestive system cancers. RESULTS The meta-analysis of 15 studies were included, comprising 1441 patients with digestive system cance...

aim : to evaluate the association between body mass index (bmi) and certain digestive symptoms and signs. background : obesity is of substantial health significance all over the world, and it is categorized by the world health organization among top ten global health problems. there is much evidence that indicates a higher prevalence of digestive symptoms in obese people. patients and methods :...
