Air Exposure in Catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) Modify Muscle Texture Properties: A Pilot Study
Fishes, 2018 Sharks are captured by tons for human consumption. Improving the quality of their meat will produce fillets that may have a higher economic value in the market, and thus be beneficial for the management of this fishery.

Molecular footprinting of skeletal tissues in the catshark Scyliorhinus canicula and the clawed frog Xenopus tropicalis identifies conserved and derived features of vertebrate calcification [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2015 Understanding the evolutionary emergence and subsequent diversification of the vertebrate skeleton requires a comprehensive view of the diverse skeletal cell types found in distinct developmental contexts, tissues and species.

Muscle development in the shark Scyliorhinus canicula: implications for the evolution of the gnathostome head and paired appendage musculature [PDF]
Frontiers in Zoology, 2017 Background The origin of jawed vertebrates was marked by profound reconfigurations of the skeleton and muscles of the head and by the acquisition of two sets of paired appendages.

Production of Chondroitin Sulphate from Head, Skeleton and Fins of Scyliorhinus canicula By-Products by Combination of Enzymatic, Chemical Precipitation and Ultrafiltration Methodologies [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2015 This study illustrates the optimisation of the experimental conditions of three sequential steps for chondroitin sulphate (CS) recovery from three cartilaginous materials of Scyliorhinus canicula by-products. Optimum conditions of temperature and pH were

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

Proteomic analysis of the zone of degeneration at the mitosis-meiosis transition stage in wild-caught male catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), correlated with an unusually high-water temperature in the English Channel. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...

Characterization of a chymosin-like pepsin from the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1987 1. Pepsin II extracted from the gastric mucosa of Scyliorhinus canicula has been characterized and compared to calf chymosin. 2. The kcat and Km of the dogfish enzyme for the synthetic hexapeptide Leu-Ser-Phe(NO2)-Nle-Ala-Leu-OMe have been determined. The kcat/Km ratio is close to that of calf chymosin.

The development of hearing abilities in the shark Scyliorhinus canicula [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2020 AbstractThe few works on audition in sharks and rays concern only adult specimens. We report the hearing abilities in the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula at different stages, from embryos that still have their yolk sac inside their egg, to juveniles.
