European Journal of Pediatric Dermatology, 2015
Sea anemone dermatitis is not uncommon, although in the literature of the past 40 years there are only 14 reports. In the child it is due to contact while sitting on rocks just below the surface or during underwater exploration; it may also be due to careless play in the child that knows the damaging effects of this coelenterate (1).

Structures of sea anemone toxins
Toxicon, 2009Sea anemones produce a variety of toxic peptides and proteins, including many ion channel blockers and modulators, as well as potent cytolysins. This review describes the structures that have been determined to date for the major classes of peptide and protein toxins.

Sea anemones possess dynamic mitogenome structures
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2014A notable feature of hexacoral mitogenomes is the presence of complex self-catalytic group I introns. We investigated mitogenome structural variations and evolutionary mechanisms in actiniarian sea anemones based on the complete mitogenome sequence of the cold-water sea anemone species Urticina eques, Bolocera tuediae, Hormathia digitata and Metridium ...

Unusual arsenic speciation in sea anemones
Chemosphere, 2008Nine species of sea anemones (Anthopleura asiatica, Actinia equina, Actinodendron arboreum, Phymanthus loligo, Entacmaea actinostoloides, Stichodactyla gigantea, S. haddoni, S. mertensii and Metridium senile) contained arsenic in the range of 1.6-7.0microg As g(-1) (wet mass basis). Irrespective of the species, water-soluble arsenic compounds accounted

Anthopleurine: A Sea Anemone Alarm Pheromone
Science, 1975The sea anemone Anthopleura elegantissima responds with characteristic contraction to a pheromone released by wounded conspecifics. The alarm pheromone was isolated by ion-exchange chromatography and identified by chemical and spectroscopic methods as the quaternary ammonium ion (3-carboxy-2,3-dihydroxy-

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1959
A sea anemone, normally a passive-looking animal, reacts to suitable food-stuffs by a series of fairly complicated activities. When its tentacles encounter solid food there is, first of all, a discharge of cnidae, which poison living prey and adhere to the food mass.

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1945
ABSTRACT The action of a number of drugs which affect the neuromuscular systems of vertebrates has been examined on the sea anemone, Calliactis parasitica. In contrast to their action in vertebrates, no drugs directly cause contraction in the muscles of the anemone.

THE sea anemone fauna of Great Britain is -oo now known much better than that of any other area in the world, largely as a result of the twenty years work that has been put into Prof. T. A. Stephenson's magnificent monograph, just completed by the appearance of the descriptive volume. The British Sea Anemones. By Prof. T. A. Stephenson. Vol. 2.

Sea Anemone Toxins Affecting Potassium Channels
2009The great diversity of K(+) channels and their wide distribution in many tissues are associated with important functions in cardiac and neuronal excitability that are now better understood thanks to the discovery of animal toxins. During the past few decades, sea anemones have provided a variety of toxins acting on voltage-sensitive sodium and, more ...
