Jellyfish venoms are rich sources of toxins designed to capture prey or deter predators, but they can also elicit harmful effects in humans. In this study, an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic approach was used to identify putative toxins and their

Unveiling the Evolutionary History of European Vipers and Their Venoms From a Multi‐Omic Approach
ABSTRACT Snake genomes attract significant attention from multiple disciplines, including medicine, drug bioprospection, and evolutionary biology. However, genomic research within the Viperidae family has mostly focused on the subfamily Crotalinae, while the true vipers (Viperinae) have largely been overlooked.

Heat Stress Drives Rapid Viral and Antiviral Innate Immunity Activation in Hexacorallia
ABSTRACT The class Hexacorallia, encompassing stony corals and sea anemones, plays a critical role in marine ecosystems. Coral bleaching, the disruption of the symbiosis between stony corals and zooxanthellate algae, is driven by seawater warming and further exacerbated by pathogenic microbes.

Clinical Presentation and Pathological Effects of a Hydrozoan Bloom on Farmed Atlantic Salmon
ABSTRACT Largely unpredictable, gelatinous plankton blooms are a growing concern for the ever‐expanding mariculture industry. Recently, a bloom of a colonial hydrozoan known as Apolemia sp. was detected via a citizen‐science initiative, Nye.dugnadforhavet.no, in mid‐Norway in July 2023.

Using antibodies raised against in vitro cultured cells, we determined the property of coral larval cells. Neuronal cells, ectoderm cells, and endoderm cells were characterized. Abstract In previous studies, we have established approximately 15 cultured cell‐lines derived from planula larvae of Acropora tenuis.

POTENTIAL USEFULNESS OF PLANT EXTRACTS TO COUNTERACT CNIDARIAN VENOMS
Cnidarians toxins are known to have a high impact on public health in marine coastal zones the world over. Consequently these toxins are now recognised as an important focus for research on their therapeutic potential. To date several therapeutically important activities have been experimentally identified in cnidarian extracts and venoms. However, the
