Infestation of the Parasitic Isopod < em > Mothocya parvostis < /em > on Juveniles of the Black Sea Bream < em > Acanthopagrus schlegelii < /em > as an Optional Intermediate Host in Hiroshima Bay
Zoolog Sci. 2020 Dec;37(6):544-553. doi: 10.2108/zs190147.ABSTRACTIn Hiroshima Bay, parasitic isopods of the genus Mothocya infest the black sea bream Acanthopagrus schlegelii (Bleeker, 1854) and the Japanese halfbeak Hyporhamphus sajori (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846), two fish species that are abundant and commercially important in the Seto Inland Sea of Japan. Immature and mature Mothocya individuals can infect both juveniles and adults of H. sajori, while immature Mothocya are known to parasitize juveniles of A. schlegelii; i.e., no Mothocya parasites are found in adult A. schlegelii. The identification of the immature M...

Identification of Novel Proteins in Foam Nests of the Japanese Forest Green Tree Frog, < em > Rhacophorus arboreus < /em >
Zoolog Sci. 2021 Feb;38(1):8-19. doi: 10.2108/zs200113.ABSTRACTFoam nests of frogs are natural biosurfactants that contain potential compounds for biocompatible materials, Drug Delivery System (DDS), emulsifiers, and bioremediation. To elucidate the protein components in the foam nests of Rhacophorus arboreus, which is an endemic Japanese frog species commonly seen during the rainy season, we performed amino acid analysis, SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry using intact foam nests. Many proteins were detected in these foam nests, ranging from a few to several hundred...
