Untargeted Metabolomics Reveals Seasonal and Tissue-Specific Metabolic Shifts in Holothuria cinerascens. [PDF]

Chem Biodivers
Untargeted metabolic profiling of three body tissues from Holothuria cinerascens in South Africa using 1H‐NMR and UPLC–QTOF–MS revealed distinct tissue‐specific and seasonal metabolic variations, with the body wall and gut/mesentery exhibiting high metabolite diversity.

Biochemical composition of some Echinodermata (Holothuroidea, Echinoidea) from the Red Sea, Egypt

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
In the present study, the biochemical composition of some Echinodermata (Holothuroidea, Echinoidea) from the Red Sea, Egypt was investigated. The results showed that the highest percentage of saturated fatty acids (SFA) was in Holothuria nobilis and the ...

Hepatoprotective effect of Holothuria leucospilota methanolic extract on dimethyl nitrosamine-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. [PDF]

Animal Model Exp Med
Wistar female rats were randomly divided into five groups (n = 12): control (intact), positive control (received 1% DMN [10 mg/kg/week, intraperitoneal] for 12 weeks), and three treatment groups (received 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg/day Holothuria leucospilota extract orally for 12 weeks along with intraperitoneal administration of 1% DMN [10 mg/kg/week ...

Sophistication in a seemingly simple creature: a review of wild holothurian nutrition in marine ecosystems. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc, 2022
ABSTRACT Holothurians are marine invertebrates that are among the most widespread benthic megafauna communities by both biomass and abundance in shallow‐water and deep‐sea ecosystems, their functions supporting important ecological services worldwide. Despite their simple appearance as sea cucumbers, holothurians show a wide range of feeding practices.

Wild sea cucumber trade in rural Madagascar: Consequences for conservation and human welfare

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Wild sea cucumber collection was common and increased tenfold during the study; one in five coastal households caught and sold wild sea cucumbers, of which more than half are threatened species, including CITES II restricted H. nobilis (endangered) and H. fuscogilva (vulnerable). Sea cucumber collectors were significantly wealthier and more food secure

Boom‐and‐bust cycles of holothurian (sea cucumber) populations in the Chagos Archipelago: An indication of poaching or natural processes?

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 33, Issue 10, Page 1079-1087, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The Chagos Archipelago is a remote Indian Ocean atoll of international conservation significance. Holothurians (sea cucumbers) are a major resource and influence reef health. Past populations have fluctuated from poaching and natural events.

In Vitro Study: Antimalarial Activity of Rivet Sea Cucumber Extract (Holothuria atra) With Ethyl Acetate Solvent Against Plasmodium falciparum

WMJ (Warmadewa Medical Journal), 2022
Indonesia is experiencing a decreased cure rate of malaria caused by the species Plasmodium falciparum. Alternative medicine, in this case, uses marine biota, namely lollyfish (Holothuria atra), which has a lot of active compound content; the purpose ...

Predicting climate change impacts on critical fisheries species in Fijian marine systems and its implications for protected area spatial planning

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 10, Page 1226-1244, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Spatially explicit protections of coastal habitats determined on the current distribution of species and ecosystems risk becoming obsolete in 100 years if the movement of species ranges outpaces management action. Hence, a critical step of conservation is predicting the efficacy of management actions in future.
