Phylogenetic and functional characterization of water bears (Tardigrada) tubulins
Scientific Reports, 2023 Tardigrades are microscopic ecdysozoans that can withstand extreme environmental conditions. Several tardigrade species undergo reversible morphological transformations and enter into cryptobiosis, which helps them to survive periods of unfavorable ...

Carbonylation accumulation of the Hypsibius exemplaris anhydrobiote reveals age-associated marks.
PLoS ONE, 2018 Together with nematodes and rotifers, tardigrade belong to micrometazoans that can cope with environmental extremes such as UV and solar radiations, dehydration, supercooling or overheating.

Defining the viability of tardigrades with a molecular sensor related to death. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The design of experimental protocols that use animal models to assess the impact of a stress on a population or to determine the life span expectancy impact can be time-consuming due to the need for direct observations of dead and living animals.

Deep-Sea Tardigrades from the North-Western Pacific, with Descriptions of Two New Species
Diversity, 2022 Three deep-sea tardigrade species were identified from the sediment samples collected during the four German–Russian joint deep-sea cruises that were conducted in the North-Western Pacific: Coronarctus sonne sp. nov., Moebjergarctus okhotensis sp.
