Functional Characterization of TRPV-Like Ion Channels Involved in Nematocyst Discharge from the Sea Anemone Diadumene lineata

The Biological Bulletin, 2022
Cnidarians require mechanical stimuli to trigger nematocyst discharge and initiate feeding behaviors. The interval from triggering stimulus to response is tens of microseconds, making it likely that mechanically gated ion channels trigger nematocyst ...

The evolution of cnidarian stinging cells supports a Precambrian radiation of animal predators

Evolution & Development
Cnidarians—the phylum including sea anemones, corals, jellyfish, and hydroids—are one of the oldest groups of predatory animals. Nearly all cnidarians are carnivores that use stinging cells called cnidocytes to ensnare and/or envenom their prey. However,

That stinging sensation: modularity and the origin of the stinging cell.

Integrative and Comparative Biology
All cells arise through division of other cells; thus, cells with new functions (novel cell types) must evolve from ancestral cells with a different function. How, then, do novel cell types arise? Each cell is a composite of many functions that, together,

Redesign Energy Landscapes of A Bistable Magnetoelastic Origami Towards Tissue Puncture

International Conference on Soft Robotics
Bistable mechanisms have been extensively investigated and applied in various fields, including robotics, augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) devices, and mechanical computing.

Morphodynamic hair bundles arising from sensory cell/supporting cell complexes frequency-tune nematocyst discharge in sea anemones.

The Journal of experimental zoology, 1994
Discharge of nematocysts from cnidocytes occurs in response to appropriate chemical and mechanical stimulation. In sea anemone tentacles, activating chemoreceptors for N-acetylated sugars shifts maximal discharge into vibrating targets to low frequencies

Knidociste žarnjaka

2014
Knidociste su jedinstvene organele koljena Cnidaria (žarnjaci) koje imaju značajnu ulogu u determinaciji ovih beskralježnjaka. Smještene su u knidocitama - visoko specijaliziranim mehanoreceptorskim i kemoreceptorskim stanicama koje su najbrojnije u epidermi usnog područja i lovki. Knidocista je građena od kapsule u kojoj se nalazi everzibilni spiralni
