Reproductive biology of the sea cucumber Holothuria sanctori (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea)
The reproductive biology of the sea cucumber Holothuria sanctori was studied over 24 months (February 2009 to January 2011) at Gran Canaria through the gonad index and a combination of macro- and microscopic analysis of the gonads.

Proteases from the regenerating gut of the holothurian Eupentacta fraudatrix. [PDF]
Four proteases with molecular masses of 132, 58, 53, and 47 kDa were detected in the digestive system of the holothurian Eupentacta fraudatrix. These proteases displayed the gelatinase activity and characteristics of zinc metalloproteinases.

Deep-sea holothurians (Echinodermata, Holothuroidea) from the Colombian Southern Caribbean Sea [PDF]
Fifteen morphotypes of deep-sea holothurians were documented by photography or videography at depths of 596–2,566 m, using Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV) video surveys and towed camera transects, during hydrocarbon exploratory activities in the

This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix releases collagen bioactive fragments, which exert molecular functions and regulate numerous biological processes via several signaling pathways. Here, we summarize the latest findings describing the roles of major bioactive fragments from collagens I, IV, VI, and XVIII in various physiological and ...
