Speciation among Lampreys [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1959
NOT all lampreys migrate to the sea. Some (the ‘landlocked’) always remain in fresh water; but after metamorphosis they migrate from the brooks, where they are born, to lakes and rivers. After a long feeding period they go back to the brooks, where they spawn and then die.

The lamprey habenula provides an extreme example for the temporal regulation of asymmetric development [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
By their phylogenetic position and their marked epithalamic asymmetries, lampreys are relevant models for understanding the formation and evolution of this trait across vertebrates.

Discovery of Eudontomyzon sp. (Petromyzontidae) larvae in lakes and a characterisation of their habitats

open access: yesNature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2021
The extended freshwater life of Petromyzontiformes larvae (ammocoetes) takes place mainly in lotic waters where it has been studied in detail. Information on ammocoetes in lentic habitats is extremely limited, with few data on the occurrence of specimens

Lampreys and spinal cord regeneration: “a very special claim on the interest of zoologists,” 1830s-present

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Employing history of science methods, including analyses of the scientific literature, archival documents, and interviews with scientists, this paper presents a history of lampreys in neurobiology from the 1830s to the present. We emphasize the lamprey’s

Shedding light on the river and sea lamprey in western European marine waters

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2021
Lampreys are ancestral jawless vertebrates with particularly complex life histories. Population declines resulting from increased anthropogenic pressure have been observed. For semelparous diadromous lampreys, the marine phase remains largely a black box,

Dispelling misperceptions of native lampreys (Entosphenus and Lampetra spp.) in the Pacific northwest (USA)

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2021
Native lampreys continue to be misunderstood by some citizens in the Pacific Northwest (PNW; USA). This misunderstanding is caused by persistent misperceptions reinforced in media and exacerbated by a long‐running (mid‐1900s to present) and pervasive ...

Data on the Quantification of Aspartate, GABA and Glutamine Levels in the Spinal Cord of Larval Sea Lampreys after a Complete Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesData, 2021
We used high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods to quantify aspartate, GABA, and glutamine levels in the spinal cord of larval sea lampreys following a complete spinal cord injury.

PTPσ Knockdown in Lampreys Impairs Reticulospinal Axon Regeneration and Neuronal Survival After Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) results in persistent functional deficits due to the lack of axon regeneration within the mammalian CNS. After SCI, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) inhibit axon regrowth via putative interactions with the LAR ...

Pacific lamprey inspired climbing

open access: yesBioinspiration & Biomimetics, 2023
Abstract Snakes and their bio-inspired robot counterparts have demonstrated locomotion on a wide range of terrains. However, dynamic vertical climbing is one locomotion strategy that has received little attention in the existing snake robotics literature.

Measurement of suction pressure dynamics of sea lampreys, Petromyzon marinus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Species-specific monitoring activities represent fundamental tools for natural resource management and conservation but require techniques that target species-specific traits or markers. Sea lamprey, a destructive invasive species in the Laurentian Great
