Variability of cnidae within a small clonal sea anemone (Isactinia sp.)
Invertebrate Biology, Volume 142, Issue 4, December 2023., 2023 Abstract The cnidom and intraspecific variability of cnidae within the small sea anemone Isactinia sp. were verified. The specific cnidae within the cnidom of four discrete morphological structures (tentacle, actinopharynx, mesenterial filaments, and body column) within Isactinia sp. was investigated.

Sea anemone model has a single Toll-like receptor that can function in pathogen detection, NF-κB signal transduction, and development [PDF]
, 2017 In organisms from insects to vertebrates, Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are primary pathogen detectors that activate downstream pathways, specifically those that direct expression of innate immune effector genes.

Comparative Analysis of Convergent Jellyfish Eyes Reveals Extensive Differences in Expression of Vision-Related Genes. [PDF]
Ecol EvolEyes have evolved in many different lineages, including several times within jellyfish, yet the relative contributions of shared and lineage‐specific genes to convergent eyes are not known. We find that three long‐diverged species of jellyfish have mostly divergent patterns of gene expression in their eye‐bearing tissues, suggesting a major role for ...

There's something in the water: an overview of jellyfish, their stings, and treatment.
International Maritime Health, 2022 An increasing presence on many beaches worldwide, jellyfish are a diverse group of Cnidarians equipped with stinging cells termed cnidocytes. Though few of the over 10,000 species are dangerous to humans, and most that are produce no more than a painful ...
