Antioxidant Response during the Kinetics of Anhydrobiosis in Two Eutardigrade Species

open access: yesLife, 2022
Anhydrobiosis, a peculiar adaptive strategy existing in nature, is a reversible capability of organisms to tolerate a severe loss of their body water when their surrounding habitat is drying out.

Investigation of Potential Effects of Ibuprofen on the Storage Cells and Anhydrobiosis Capacity of the Tardigrade Paramacrobiotus experimentalis [PDF]

open access: goldDiversity
The surge in pharmaceutical consumption, particularly non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, has raised concerns about their presence in aquatic ecosystems.

Microbial anhydrobiosis [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, 2021
Summary The loss of cellular water (desiccation) and the resulting low cytosolic water activity are major stress factors for life. Numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic taxa have evolved molecular and physiological adaptions to periods of low water availability or water‐limited environments that occur across the terrestrial Earth.

Fibril Structure of Desiccation-Protective Tardigrade Protein CAHS-8. [PDF]

open access: yesAngew Chem Int Ed Engl
We present the atomic structure of the fibril formed by an intrinsically disordered protein that has been shown to be responsible for remarkable environmental stress in tardigrades. X‐ray crystallography reveals a unique mechanism of fibril assembly whereby a single helix forms a stable, antiparallel coiled‐coil dimer, which then assembles into a ...

Search for putative gene regulatory motifs in CAHS3, linked to anhydrobiosis in a tardigrade Ramazzottius varieornatus, in vivo and in silico. [PDF]

open access: yesGenes Cells
Tardigrades can survive in an almost completely dehydrated state, known as anhydrobiosis, aided by proteins like CAHS3. Research using a newly developed tardigrade‐specific vector revealed that CAHS3 expression is most pronounced in the epidermis, suggesting tissue‐specific regulation rather than uniform expression.

Verification of Hypsibius exemplaris Gąsiorek et al., 2018 (Eutardigrada; Hypsibiidae) application in anhydrobiosis research.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Anhydrobiosis is considered to be an adaptation of important applicative implications because it enables resistance to the lack of water. The phenomenon is still not well understood at molecular level.
