Abstract: Amyloid‐β (Aβ) peptides are implicated in the causation of memory loss, neuronal impairment, and neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease. Our recent work revealed that Aβ 1–42 and Aβ 25–35 inhibit long‐term memory (LTM) recall in Lymnaea… read more here.

Multiple mating in natural populations of a simultaneous hermaphrodite, Lymnaea stagnalis

DOI: 10.1093/mollus/eyw043
Abstract: In field populations, it is largely unknown how many mating partners simultaneous hermaphrodites have, although their promiscuous mating is often observed in captivity. Documenting the number of mates in natural populations can expand the understanding… read more here.

Linking the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of ageing: evidence for somatotropic control of long-term memory function in the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.167395
Abstract: ABSTRACT Organisms live on a budget; hence, they cannot maximize all their activities at the same time. Instead, they must prioritize how they spend limiting resources on the many processes they rely on in their… read more here.

Epicatechin Alters the Activity of a Neuron Necessary for Long-Term Memory of Aerial Respiratory Behavior in Lymnaea stagnalis

DOI: 10.2108/zs220008
Abstract: Epicatechin (EpiC) enhances long-term memory (LTM) formation in the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis. Here we investigated at the level of a single neuron, RPeD1, which is a necessary site for LTM formation of operant conditioning… read more here.

Studies on a widely-recognized snail model species (Lymnaea stagnalis) provide further evidence that vertebrate steroids do not have a hormonal role in the reproduction of mollusks

DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.981564
Abstract: Experiments were carried out to determine whether, as with other mollusks that have been studied, the snail, Lymnaea stagnalis, can absorb, esterify and store vertebrate steroids that are present in the water. We also carried… read more here.

Tissue-specific evaluation of suitable reference genes for RT-qPCR in the pond snail, Lymnaea stagnalis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.7888
Abstract: Reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is a robust technique for the quantification and comparison of gene expression. To obtain reliable results with this method, one or more reference genes must be employed to normalize expression… read more here.
