A Rapid Colorimetric Method Reveals Fraudulent Substitutions in Sea Urchin Roe Marketed in Sardinia (Italy)

open access: yesFoods, 2016
In recent years, besides the consumption of fresh sea urchin specimens, the demand of minimally-processed roe has grown considerably. This product has made frequent consumption in restaurants possible and frauds are becoming widespread with the partial ...

Comparative morpho‐physiological aspects and transcriptomics of the gonads from wild caught and enhanced green sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis)

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, 2022
There is a growing interest in sea urchin roe enhancement around the world, but relatively little is known about the physical differences between enhanced and wild sea urchin roe and the causes of any differences.

Biobanking of a Marine Invertebrate Model Organism: The Sea Urchin

open access: yes, 2016
The sea urchin has long been used as an invertebrate model organism in developmental biology, membrane transport and sperm oocyte interactions, and for the assessment of marine pollution.

Autophagy as a defense strategy against stress: focus on Paracentrotus lividus sea urchin embryos exposed to cadmium

open access: yesCell stress & chaperones (Print), 2015
Autophagy is used by organisms as a defense strategy to face environmental stress. This mechanism has been described as one of the most important intracellular pathways responsible for the degradation and recycling of proteins and organelles.

Synthesis of Sea Urchin-Like NiCo2O4 via Charge-Driven Self-Assembly Strategy for High-Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2019
In this study, hydrothermal synthesis of sea urchin-like NiCo2O4 was successfully demonstrated by a versatile charge-driven self-assembly strategy using positively charged poly(diallydimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) molecules. Physical characterizations

Stated Preferences for Consumption of Sea Urchin: A Choice Experiment in Sardinia (Italy)

open access: yesInternational Journal on Food System Dynamics, 2014
In Sardinia sea urchin (Paracentrotus lividus) roe is a basic ingredient for several dishes (e.g. pasta, pizza, croutons) and its demand is constantly increasing.

Species and Abundance of Sea Urchins (Diadematidae) on Different Environmental Pressure Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Life Science, 2017
Genetic diversity of sea urchin are very high; there are no two organisms of the same species that are exactly alike. Dense aggregation of sea urchin is responsible for the destruction of marine algae communities on coral reef ecosystem.

Consumption of the edible sea urchin Mesocentrotus nudus attenuates body weight gain and hepatic lipid accumulation in mice

open access: yesJournal of Functional Foods, 2018
The beneficial health effects of edible sea urchin consumption in mice fed a normal (ND) or high-fat diet (HFD) were investigated in this study. Notably, sea urchin-administered (250, 500, 1000 mg/kg) mice exhibited lower body, liver, and visceral fat ...

The Composition, Diversity and Predictive Metabolic Profiles of Bacteria Associated With the Gut Digesta of Five Sea Urchins in Luhuitou Fringing Reef (Northern South China Sea)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Sea urchins strongly affect reef ecology, and the bacteria associated with their gut digesta have not been well studied in coral reefs. In the current study, we analyze the bacterial composition of five sea urchin species collected from Luhuitou fringing

RNA deep sequencing reveals differential microRNA expression during development of sea urchin and sea star. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
microRNAs (miRNAs) are small (20-23 nt), non-coding single stranded RNA molecules that act as post-transcriptional regulators of mRNA gene expression. They have been implicated in regulation of developmental processes in diverse organisms.
