Nitric oxide signaling in ctenophores
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the most ancient and versatile signal molecules across all domains of life. NO signaling might also play an essential role in the origin of animal organization.

Molecular diversity of benthic ctenophores (Coeloplanidae) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Coeloplanidae, the largest family of benthic ctenophores, comprises 33 species, all described based on traditional morphological characteristics, such as coloration, length, and number of aboral papillae, which are highly variable and can be affected by ...

Beyond synapses: cytoplasmic connections in brain function and evolution. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT Following Ramón y Cajal's groundbreaking contributions to the identification of synapses, research in neuroscience predominantly focused on their pivotal role in neural communication (the neuron doctrine), overlooking an intriguing possibility suggested by Golgi of non‐synaptic interactions among neural cells.

Diffusion tubes: a method for the mass culture of ctenophores and other pelagic marine invertebrates [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 The culture of pelagic marine invertebrates, especially the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi, has been demonstrated in past studies dating back to the 1960s; however, the mass culture of delicate pelagic invertebrates has remained elusive. By using a pair of

Evidence for de novo Biosynthesis of the Luminous Substrate Coelenterazine in Ctenophores
iScience, 2020 Summary: Coelenterazine is a key substrate involved in marine bioluminescence which is used for light-production by at least nine phyla. Some luminous animals, such as the hydromedusa Aequorea, lack the ability to produce coelenterazine endogenously and ...

Jellyfish and Ctenophores in Limfjorden (Denmark)—Mini-Review, with Recent New Observations
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2014 Limfjorden is a major Danish water system that connects the North Sea via Thyborøn Kanal in the west and to the Kattegat in the east. Limfjorden is heavily eutrophicated and certain areas suffer from oxygen depletion each summer.

Quantifying the feeding behavior and trophic impact of a widespread oceanic ctenophore
Scientific Reports, 2023 Oceanic ctenophores are widespread predators on pelagic zooplankton. While data on coastal ctenophores often show strong top-down predatory impacts in their ecosystems, differing morphologies, prey capture mechanisms and behaviors of oceanic species ...
