... proteins in the adhesive mucus. The present study identifies similar proteins from the glue of the slug Arion subfuscus and the land snail Helix aspersa . To investigate the role played by these proteins in adhesion,the proteins were isolated from the adhesive mucus of different molluscs and added...

...Julian L. Pakay; Andrew A. Hobbs; Scot R. Kimball; Michael Guppy SUMMARY We have investigated the role of eukaryotic initiation factor 2α(eIF2α) in two estivating organisms previously shown to downregulate protein synthesis during metabolic depression, the land snail Helix aspersa Müller...

...Gabriella R. Ramos-Vasconcelos; Marcelo Hermes-Lima SUMMARY The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of a cycle of estivation and awakening on free radical metabolism in selected organs of the land snail Helix aspersa . Estivation for 20 days induced a 4.9- and 1.8-fold increase in selenium...

...T. Bishop; M. D. Brand ABSTRACT Cells isolated from the hepatopancreas of the land snail Helix aspersa strongly depress respiration both immediately in response to lowered (oxygen conformation) and, in the longer term, during aestivation. These phenomena were analysed by dividing cellular...

...Joris M. Koene; Ronald Chase ABSTRACT The function of the love dart in certain species of terrestrial snails is unknown. In Helix aspersa , the dart is a sharp calcareous structure that is used to pierce the partner’s skin during courtship. When expelled, the dart is covered with a thick mucus...

...Glen A. Cottrell ABSTRACT Patch-clamp experiments on the C2 neurone of Helix aspersa have shown that the neuropeptide Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH 2 (FMRFamide) directly gates a Na + channel. The channel is amiloride-sensitive. Activation of this channel is responsible for the fast excitatory action...

...W. Lesser; M. J. Greenberg ABSTRACT The putative heptapeptide pQDPFLRIamide, previously known only from its appearance in a cDNA clone from Helix aspersa , was isolated from circumoesophageal ganglia extracts and sequenced. Extracts of several tissues were fractionated by high performance liquid...

...H. K. Lehman; M. J. Greenberg ABSTRACT Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH 2 (FMRFamide) and pyroGlu-Asp-Pro-Phe-Leu-Arg-Phe-NH 2 (pQDPFLRFamide) occur in the ganglia and tissues of the snail, Helix aspersa . This report describes the effects of these two neuropeptides on five visceral organs or somatic muscles...

...H. K. Lehman; D. A. Price ABSTRACT The distribution of FMRFamide-like material in the gastropod mollusc, Helix aspersa , was studied by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunocytochemistry. Most of the RIA activity was concentrated in the central nervous system, the male reproductive tract, the tentacles...
