DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2018.10.022
Abstract: Bioturbators such as sediment-dwelling marine bivalves are ecosystem engineers that enhance sediment-water exchange and benthic-pelagic coupling. In shallow coastal areas, bivalves are exposed to frequent disturbance and salinity stress that might negatively affect their activity… read more here.

Roles of polymorphic cathelicidins in innate immunity of soft‐shell turtle, Pelodiscus sinensis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Developmental and Comparative Immunology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2018.11.010
Abstract: ABSTRACT Cathelicidins are a class of gene‐encoded immune effectors in vertebrate innate immune system. Though being extensively studied in mammals, little is known about the roles of cathelicidins in turtles, the water‐dwelling vertebrates in the… read more here.

Wrinkling and smoothing of a soft shell
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of The Mechanics and Physics of Solids"
DOI: 10.1016/j.jmps.2019.103738
Abstract: Abstract Transverse wrinkles usually occur in a uniaxially tensile elastic membrane and will be smoothed upon excess stretching. This instability-restabilization response (isola-center bifurcation) can originate from the nonlinear competition between stretching energy and bending energy.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41597-025-05188-1
Abstract: The interdigital webs of aquatic tetrapods are a key structure evolved for adaptation, which are formed by inhibiting interdigital cell death (ICD). Diverse interdigital morphologies have independently evolved among species, and the regulatory mechanisms responsible… read more here.

Difference in nutritional status and food sources for hard- and soft-shell crabs (Portunus trituberculatus) using amino acids and isotopic tracers
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-99629-x
Abstract: The swimming crab, Portunus trituberculatus, supports the world’s largest crab fishery. Hard-shell crabs have fully developed exoskeletons and are rich in meat, while soft-shell crabs, which have recently molted, contain less meat. To determine their… read more here.
