Introduction Secreted mucins are highly O-glycosylated glycoproteins produced by goblet
cells in mucosal epithelia. They constitute the protective viscous gel layer overlying the …

Introduction Parasitic ciliates are protozoans with a global distribution. Along with the gut
microbiota, they have formed a micro-ecosystem that affects the host's nutrition, metabolism …

The greenfin horse-faced filefish (Thamnaconus septentrionalis) is susceptible to recurrent
Amyloodinium ocellatum (AO) infestation over the grow-out production cycle. This parasite …

Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is one of the main diseases affecting Atlantic salmon (Salmo

The eye, as a specialized visual organ, is directly exposed to the external environment, and,
therefore, it faces constant challenges from external pathogenic organisms and toxins. In the …

The myxozoan Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae is a widely spread endoparasite that causes
proliferative kidney disease (PKD) in salmonid fish. We developed an in silico pipeline to …

Mucins are O-glycosylated glycoproteins present on the apex of all wet-surfaced epithelia
with a well-defined expression pattern, which is disrupted in response to a wide range of …

The lack of practical control measures for pharyngeal myxobolosis is becoming an important
limiting factor for the sustainable development of the gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) …

Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins produced by goblet cells and secreted on
mucosal surfaces. We investigated biochemical and histochemical properties of intestinal …

The gill ectoparasite Sparicotyle chrysophrii is the major parasitic pathogen in gilthead
seabream (Sparus aurata) aquaculture with limited management and treatment strategies. In …
