Collaborative Expression: Transcriptomics of Conus virgo Suggests Contribution of Multiple Secretory Glands to Venom Production
Venomous marine gastropods of the family Conidae are among the most diversified predators in marine realm—in large due to their complex venoms....

Gap junction-mediated contraction of myoepithelial cells induces the peristaltic transport of sweat in human eccrine glands
Eccrine sweat glands play an essential role in regulating body temperature. Sweat is produced in the coiled secretory portion of the gland, which is...

Mating- and oviposition-dependent changes of the spermatheca and colleterial glands in the pest termite Cryptotermes brevis (Blattaria, Isoptera, Kalotermitidae)
The spermatheca and colleterial glands of female insects are organs associated with the reproductive system, responsible for sperm storage and...

Anatomical and histological structures of the male reproductive system of adult Cercopis vulnerata Rossi, 1807 (Hemiptera: Cercopidae)
Cercopis vulnerata (red-and-black froghopper) is a species of leafhopper that can be configured as a pest, as it is polyphagous and causes damage to...

Silencing of the T-type voltage-gated calcium channel α1 subunit by fungus-mediated RNAi altered the structure of F-actin and caused defective behaviors in Ditylenchus destructor
BackgroundT-type calcium channels, characterized as low-voltage activated (LVA) calcium channels, play crucial physiological roles across a wide...

ATP-sensitive inward rectifier potassium channels reveal functional linkage between salivary gland function and blood feeding in the mosquito, Aedes aegypti
Reducing saliva secretions into the vertebrate host reduces feeding efficacy by most hematophagous arthropods. However, seminal studies suggested...
