Fate and effects of microplastic particles in a periphyton-grazer system

Kristin Schirmer, Ahmed Tlili, Renata Behra

In the aquatic environment, microplastic particles (MP) can accumulate in microbial communities that cover submerged substrata, i.e. in periphyton. Despite periphyton being the essential food source for grazers in the benthic zones, MP transfer from periph ...

Neuromechanical Simulations of Animats with Decentralised Control

Jonathan Patrick Arreguit O'Neill

The transition from aquatic to terrestrial environments represents a significant event in the history of evolution. For this transition to occur, animals had to adapt their morphology, physiology and locomotory skills to handle the challenges and interacti ...

Comparative analysis of time-based and quadrat sampling in seasonal population dynamics of intermediate hosts of human schistosomes

Andrea Rinaldo, Theophile Mande, Francisco Javier Perez Saez

Background Despite their importance for designing and evaluating schistosomiasis control trials, little attention in the literature has been dedicated to sampling protocols for the parasite's snail intermediate hosts since their first development. We propo ...

Modelled effects of prawn aquaculture on poverty alleviation and schistosomiasis control

Andrea Rinaldo, Lorenzo Mari, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Marino Gatto

Recent evidence suggests that snail predators may aid efforts to control the human parasitic disease schistosomiasis by eating aquatic snail species that serve as intermediate hosts of the parasite. Here, potential synergies between schistosomiasis control ...

Snail mediates repression of the Dlk1-Dio3 locus in lung tumor-infiltrating immune cells

Nadine Fournier, Etienne Meylan, Julien Robert Rémi Faget, Svenja Johanna Groeneveld

The epithelial-mesenchymal transition-inducing transcription factor Snail contributes to tumor progression in different malignancies. In the present study, we used a transcriptomics approach to elucidate the mechanism of Snail-mediated tumor growth promoti ...

Heterogeneity in schistosomiasis transmission dynamics

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Marino Gatto

Simple models of disease propagation often disregard the effects of transmission heterogeneity on the ecological and epidemiological dynamics associated with host-parasite interactions. However, for some diseases like schistosomiasis, a widespread parasiti ...

Surface passivation and self-regulated shell growth in selective area-grown GaN-(Ale,Ga)N core-shell nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Luca Francaviglia

The large surface-to-volume ratio of GaN nanowires implicates sensitivity of the optical and electrical properties of the nanowires to their surroundings. The implementation of an (Al, Ga) N shell with a larger band gap around the GaN nanowire core is a pr ...

Hydrology and density feedbacks control the ecology of intermediate hosts of schistosomiasis across habitats in seasonal climates

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Theophile Mande, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Marino Gatto

We report about field and theoretical studies on the ecology of the aquatic snails (Bulinus spp. and Biomphalaria pfeifferi) that serve as obligate intermediate hosts in the complex life cycle of the parasites causing human schistosomiasis. Snail abundance ...
