A taste of the deep-sea: The roles of gustatory and tactile searching behaviour in the grenadier fish Coryphaenoides armatus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The deep-sea grenadier fishes (Coryphaenoides spp.) are among the dominant predators and scavengers in the ocean basins that cover much of Earth's surface. Baited camera experiments were used to study the behaviour of these fishes.

Myelin in cartilaginous fish

open access: yesBrain Research, 2016
Myelin is probably one of the most fascinating and innovative biological acquisition: a glia plasma membrane tightly wrapped around an axon and insulating it. Chondrichthyans (cartilaginous fishes) form a large group of vertebrates, and they are among oldest extant jawed vertebrate lineage.

The covert world of fish biofluorescence: a phylogenetically widespread and phenotypically variable phenomenon. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The discovery of fluorescent proteins has revolutionized experimental biology. Whereas the majority of fluorescent proteins have been identified from cnidarians, recently several fluorescent proteins have been isolated across the animal tree of life ...

Physiology of elasmobranch fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The elasmobranch fishes although not so important and abundant as their teleostean relatives, are considered valuable in many respects. There are a number of books on physiology of bony fishes but literature on this subject on the cartilaginous ...

Foliculogénesis Ovárica en la Raya Marmorada, Sympterygia bonapartii (Müller & Henle, 1841) (Chondrichthyes, Rajidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Los Condrictios se han convertido en un recurso económico importante en las últimas décadas, siendo Argentina uno de los países que más explota tiburones y rayas, incluso a niveles que exceden los límites de varias especies.

The valvula cerebelli of the spiny eel, Macrognathus aculeatus, receives primary lateral-line afferents from the rostrum of the upper jaw [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
In the spiny eel, Macrognathus aculeatus, anterodorsal and (to a lesser degree) anteroventral lateralline nerves project massively to the granular layer of the valvula cerebelli, throughout its rostrocaudal extent.

Possible multiple evolution of indirect telencephalo-cerebellar pathways in teleosts: studies in Carassius auratus and Pantodon buchholzi [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Among vertebrates, telencephalo-pontine systems exist only in birds and mammals. However, three nuclei in the diencephalon and mesencephalon of teleost fishes have been indicated — analogous to the pons — to represent relay stations between telencephalon

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.
