Sulfated Polysaccharides in Marine Sponges: Extraction Methods and Anti-HIV Activity
Marine Drugs, 2011 The extraction, fractionation and HIV-1 inhibition potential of polysaccharides extracted from three species of marine sponges, Erylus discophorus, Cliona celata and Stelletta sp., collected in the Northeastern Atlantic, is presented in this work.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.We present results from a mesocosm experiment testing the utility of marine sponges as natural samplers of eDNA and show the effect of DNA state on the capture and persistence of genetic material. We find a significant interaction between DNA state and sample type, with lower detection and concentration of extracellular DNA, compared to cellular DNA ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.This study uses eDNA to explore marine biodiversity changes under anthropogenic impacts, with a focus on marine community dynamics. Through the use of eDNA metabarcoding, the research identified 814 ASVs across 617 marine families, noting drastic changes in biological communities over time, with different species dominating during different phases of ...

Evolution of g-type lysozymes in metazoa: insights into immunity and digestive adaptations
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyExploring the evolutionary dynamics of lysozymes is critical for advancing our knowledge of adaptations in immune and digestive systems. Here, we characterize the distribution of a unique class of lysozymes known as g-type, which hydrolyze key components

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.Ecosystem monitoring is essential for preventing biodiversity loss, and in the Mar Menor lagoon (SE Spain), where intensive agriculture has led to eutrophication and mass mortality of marine fauna, it is critical for assessing the status of flora and fauna and informing conservation actions.

Assessing the Potential of Sponges (Porifera) as Indicators of Ocean Dissolved Si Concentrations
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017 We explore the distribution of sponges along dissolved silica (dSi) concentration gradients to test whether sponge assemblages are related to dSi and to assess the validity of fossil sponges as a palaeoecological tool for inferring dSi concentrations of ...
