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.

Integrated pathway modules using time-course metabolic profiles and EST data from Milnesium tardigradum [PDF]
, 2012 Background Tardigrades are multicellular organisms, resistant to extreme environmental changes such as heat, drought, radiation and freezing. They outlast these conditions in an inactive form (tun) to escape damage to cellular structures and cell death ...

DNA Protection Protein, a Novel Mechanism of Radiation Tolerance: Lessons from Tardigrades
Life, 2017 Genomic DNA stores all genetic information and is indispensable for maintenance of normal cellular activity and propagation. Radiation causes severe DNA lesions, including double-strand breaks, and leads to genome instability and even lethality ...
