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.

Suramin inhibits the early effects of PLA(2) neurotoxins at mouse neuromuscular junctions: a twitch tension study [PDF]
Several phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) neurotoxins from snake venoms can affect acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction. In isolated nerve-muscle preparations three distinct phases have been described for this phenomenon: An initial transient ...

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.
