In vivo binding of a biologically active oligopeptide in vegetative buds of the scyphozoan Cassiopea andromeda: demonstration of receptor-mediated induction of metamorphosis

Marine Biology, 1995
Vegetative buds of Cassiopea andromeda (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) metamorphose into polyps in the presence of short synthetic peptides containing proline as the preterminal amino acid at the carboxyl terminus. In an in vivo assay, the binding of the biologically active hexapeptide 14C-dansyl-GPGGPA in buds was shown to be specific and saturable.

Genetic metamorphosis of herpes simplex virus-1 into a biological therapeutic for human cancer

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2003
Over the past decade, rapid progress has been made in engineering safe, replicating herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) mutants for use as biological oncolytic agents in the treatment of human cancer. While initial efforts demonstrated the potential of HSV-1 mutants as antitumour agents, they relied on viruses that were not sufficiently attenuated ...

The Roles of Chemical Cues in the Life Cycle of Bivalves: Spawning, Settlement, and Metamorphosis

Reviews in Aquaculture
Spawning, settlement, and metamorphosis represent the most challenging events for hatchery bivalve production. To enhance bivalve aquaculture, hatcheries have relied on a range of chemical compounds to induce these biological processes.

Insect metamorphosis and chitin metabolism under miRNA regulation: a review with current advances

Pest Management Science
Insect metamorphosis is a complex developmental process regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs) and hormonal signaling pathways. Key genes driving insect ontogenic changes are precisely modulated by miRNAs, which interact with 20‐hydroxyecdysone (20E) and ...

MyD88 knockdown by RNAi prevents bacterial stimulation of tubeworm metamorphosis

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Significance Metamorphosis is a critical life-history transition in many animals, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms, particularly in response to environmental bacteria, remain poorly understood.

The Elongator complex regulates larval-pupal metamorphosis by modulating ecdysteroid biosynthesis in the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
The highly conserved Elongator complex plays important roles in histone acetylation and tRNA modification. Currently, Elongator complex has been shown to be essential for a range of biological processes, but its function in insect hormone signaling is ...

MicroRNA miR-285 modulates the metamorphosis in Galeruca daurica by targeting Br-C.

Pest Management Science
BACKGROUD Galeruca daurica has become a new pest on the Inner Mongolia grasslands since its abrupt outbreak in 2009, and caused serious damage. As a pupa indicator during insect metamorphosis, the early response gene of ecdysone signaling pathway, Broad ...

Rapid geographic divergence in competitive ability of cane toad larvae (Rhinella marina) during a biological invasion

Ecology
Low population densities at the expanding edge of a biological invasion are predicted to reduce intraspecific competition such that invading organisms evolve to prioritize adaptations for rapid rates of population growth and dispersal over those that ...

Culturing echinoderm larvae through metamorphosis.

Methods in Cell Biology, 2019
Echinoderms are favored study organisms not only in cell and developmental biology, but also physiology, larval biology, benthic ecology, population biology and paleontology, among other fields.
