Comparative Transcriptomics of Three Hirudo Species

Comparative transcriptomic analysis of salivary gland cells from three Hirudo species (H. medicinalis, H. verbana, H. orientalis). Identified conserved core bioactive gene families shared across species and species-specific transcript variants, providing insight into the evolution of the leech salivary pharmacopeia.
