    Morphine 6 glucuronide stimulates nitric oxide release in mussel neural tissues: evidence for a morphine 6 glucuronide opiate receptor subtype

    We have previously demonstrated that Mytilus edulis pedal ganglia contain opiate alkaloids, i.e., morphine and morphine 6 glucuronide (M6G), as well as mu opiate receptor subtype fragments exhibiting high sequen...

    Heavy metals and neuroimmunomodulation in Mytilus edulis

    Immunocytes of mussels are the chief immune defense in these organisms. When an immunocyte becomes activated there is a conspicuous change in its morphology (i.e., from round to amoeboid) that can be quantifie...
