Current Progress in Lipidomics of Marine Invertebrates
Marine Drugs, 2021 Marine invertebrates are a paraphyletic group that comprises more than 90% of all marine animal species. Lipids form the structural basis of cell membranes, are utilized as an energy reserve by all marine invertebrates, and are, therefore, considered ...

The colonial cnidarian Hydractinia [PDF]
EvoDevo, 2020 AbstractHydractinia, a genus of colonial marine cnidarians, has been used as a model organism for developmental biology and comparative immunology for over a century. It was this animal where stem cells and germ cells were first studied. However, protocols for efficient genetic engineering have only recently been established by a small but interactive ...

Cnidarian Immunity and the Repertoire of Defense Mechanisms in Anthozoans
Biology, 2020 Anthozoa is the most specious class of the phylum Cnidaria that is phylogenetically basal within the Metazoa. It is an interesting group for studying the evolution of mutualisms and immunity, for despite their morphological simplicity, Anthozoans are ...

Transcriptional analyses provide new insight into the late-stage immune response of a diseased Caribbean coral [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Increasing global temperatures due to climate change have resulted in respective increases in the severity and frequency of epizootics around the globe. Corals in particular have faced rapid declines due to disease outbreaks.

Cnidarian milestones in metazoan evolution [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2007 Cnidarians display most of the characters considered as milestones of metazoan evolution. Whereas a tissue-level organization was probably already present in the multicellular common ancestor of all animals, the Urmetazoa, the emergence of important animal features such as bilateral symmetry, triploblasty, a polarized nervous system, sense organs (eyes,

Setting the pace: new insights into central pattern generator interactions in box jellyfish swimming [PDF]
, 2011 Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) produce rhythmic behaviour across all animal phyla. Cnidarians, which have a radially symmetric nervous system and pacemaker centres in multiples of four, provide an interesting comparison to bilaterian animals for ...
