Neuropeptides in Cnidarians [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2002 Cnidarians are the lowest animal group having a nervous system. In the primitive nervous systems of cnidarians, peptides play important roles as neurotransmitters or neurohormones. So far, we have isolated and sequenced about 35 neuropeptides from different cnidarian classes (Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, Anthozoa).

MECHANISMS OF IMMUNE RESPONSES IN CNIDARIANS [PDF]
Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2015 The immune system maintains the integrity of the organisms through a complex network of molecules, cells, and tissues that recognize internal or external antigenic substances to neutralized and eliminate them.

Cnidarians and Their Polychaete Symbionts [PDF]
, 2016 Cnidarians, especially skeleton-bearing anthozoans and hydrocorals, are known to host abundant and diverse symbiotic fauna encompassing members of the majority of metazoan taxa, ranging from sponges and flat worms to fishes. Members of the class Polychaeta are between the most diverse and perhaps the least studied taxa of coral symbionts.
