Salivary glands in workers of Ruptitermes spp. (Blattaria, Isoptera, Termitidae, Apicotermitinae): a morphological and preoteomic approach
(2021-01-01)
Salivary glands are omnipresent in termites and occur in all developmental stages and castes. They function to produce, store, and secrete compounds, ranging from a feeding function to defensive mechanisms. Here, we provide ...
Proteomic-components provide insights into the defensive secretion in termite workers of the soldierless genus Ruptitermes
(2020-02-20)
Termite soldiers constitute the defensive frontline of the colonies, despite workers also perform such tasks, especially within the Neotropical Apicotermitinae, in which all species are soldierless. Workers of the genus ...
Revealing the Venomous Secrets of the Spider's Web
(2020-08-07)
Orb-weaving spiders use a highly strong, sticky and elastic web to catch their prey. These web properties alone would be enough for the entrapment of prey; however, these spiders may be hiding venomous secrets in the web, ...
Proteomic analysis of the rare Uracoan rattlesnake Crotalus vegrandis venom: evidence of a broad arsenal of toxins
(Elsevier B. V., 2015-09-25)
The investigation of venoms has many clinical, pharmacological, ecological and evolutionary outcomes. The Crotalus spp. venom can cause hemorrhage, neurotoxicity, myotoxicity, coagulopathy and hypotension. Although ...
