Synthesis and Hypoglycemic Effect of Insulin from the Venom of Sea Anemone Exaiptasia diaphana
Sea anemone venom, abundant in protein and peptide toxins, serves primarily for predatory defense and competition. This study delves into the insulin-like peptides (ILPs) present in sea anemones, particularly focusing on their role in potentially ...

The anti-biofilm effects of sponge (Callyspongia sp.) and two sea anemones (Zoanthus sansibaricus and Cerianthus lloydii) collected from the Persian Gulf [PDF]
Background: Sponges and sea anemones do not have specialized defense organs. Instead, they rival harmful microorganisms by producing certain compounds. These compounds can also be useful against some human pathogens.

WHILST in some branches of science, especially physics, there are so many workers in the field that monographs can be continually revised, in others many years must pass by before an expert can bring our knowledge up-to-date. Dr. T. A. Stephenson, one of the two leading workers on anemones at the present time, is to be congratulated on his effort to ...

Sexual reproductive cycle and gametogenesis in sea anemones (Cnidaria: Anthozoa): a scope review
Sea anemones have a wide range of reproductive modes, which may contribute to their broad distribution. Understanding reproductive traits and patterns, such as seasonality, is important to elucidate the evolutionary processes that shaped the current ...
