Marine caves are considered biodiversity hotspots and serve as refuge habitats for both endemic and non-endemic species. Due to their low resilience, this habitat is considered vulnerable and is included as a key habitat in the European Union’s (EU) Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC). Recreational diving has been identified as a significant threat to this habitat, causing sediment resuspension, destruction of epibenthic organisms...
Curdlan, a β-1,3/1,6-glucan found in Alcaligenes faecalis ( A. faecalis ) wall, activates innate and humoral immunity. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether pretreated rats with A. faecalis A12C could prevent sepsis disturbances and identify the immunomodulatory mechanisms involved. Experiments occurred in two stages: a survival study with 16 rats randomly divided into septic (SC) ( n = 8) and septic pretreated (SA) ( n...
The bearded fireworm Hermodice carunculata is a thermophilic polychaeta typically inhabiting the warmer waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the southern Mediterranean Sea. Over the past few years, sightings of this species have become more frequent at higher latitudes along the western Mediterranean (WM) basin, raising concerns about the potential expansion of its distribution range. Here, we present new records of H. carunculata...
Neuroimaging and immunofluorescence of the Pseudopus apodus brain: unraveling its structural complexityNARA Subscribed
The present study provides an in-depth neuroanatomical characterization of the brain of Pseudopus apodus , combining magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with histological analysis by immunofluorescence. In the telencephalon, the pallial regions showed distinct anatomical features, including a cortical structure, a dorsal ventricular ridge and the spherical nucleus, but prominent layering patterns, observable on histological slide...
Extracellular ATP can be a danger signal, but its role in striatal circuits afflicted in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is unclear and was now investigated. ATP was particularly released at high stimulation intensities from purified striatal nerve terminals of mice, which were endowed with different ATP-P2 receptors (P2R), although P2R antagonists did not alter corticostriatal transmission or plasticity. Instead, ATP was extracellul...
Probiotic Properties of Alcaligenes faecalis Isolated from Argyrosomus regius in Experimental Peritonitis (Rat Model)NARA Subscribed
A strain of Alcaligenes faecalis A12C ( A. faecalis A12C) isolated from Argyrosomus regius is a probiotic in fish. Previous experiments showed that A. faecalis A12C had inhibitory effects on the growth of multidrug-resistant bacteria. We aimed to confirm whether A. faecalis A12C is safe and has adequate intestinal colonization in experimental rats, and evaluate its efficacy in an animal model of peritonitis . We used 30 male r...
