Abstract
Factors leading to aestivation (summer sleep) invariably display features of stress and hence it is of interest to understand and elucidate the role of heat shock proteins (HSP`s) during cellular stress response in an aestivating amphibious Indian apple snail Pila globosa . Expression of Inducible HSP40 was documented in the hepatopancreatic tissue after 60 days of aestivation. The identification of Inducible HSP40 in snails exposed to long term aestivational stress could be used as a potential biomarker/bio-indicator.
Highlights
The phylum Mollusca is one of the largest phyla within changes in temperature [7] hypoxia [8], salinity [9], metal the animal kingdom and has evolved successfully, ion concentration [10-11] can induce the synthesis of presenting a widespread distribution, being able to heat shock proteins (HSPs) that act to prevent protein aggregation and to survive in both aquatic and terrestrial environments
The absorbance of the which our study reports about the colour complex was determined at differential expression of HSPs in
Out of Hsps, HSP70 family of proteins are among the best studied HSPs and widely being reported as stress markers
Summary
The phylum Mollusca is one of the largest phyla within changes in temperature [7] hypoxia [8], salinity [9], metal the animal kingdom and has evolved successfully, ion concentration [10-11] can induce the synthesis of presenting a widespread distribution, being able to HSPs that act to prevent protein aggregation and to survive in both aquatic and terrestrial environments. This variable variations and in turn undergoes self-induced stress environment can induce metabolic and behavioral conditions of aestivation to evade long summer seasons changes in these organisms.
