Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 5, Page 924-952, November 2025.This study investigates the morphology, abundance, and distribution of taste papillae in the oropharyngeal cavity of a range of elasmobranchs using SEM, histology, and topographic analyses. The interspecific importance of gustation is reflected in quantitative differences in the size, density, and distribution of taste papillae, which have implications

Effects of some metals on paraoxonase activity from shark Scyliorhinus canicula
Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2011 Paraoxonase (PON) is an organophosphate hydrolyser enzyme which also has antioxidant properties in metabolism. Due to its crucial functions, the inhibition of the enzyme is undesirable and very dangerous. PON enzyme activity should not be altered in any case. Inhibitory investigations of this enzyme are therefore important and useful.
