Abstract In contrast with the outmost uniform aspect of Trichoplax there is a clear cut differentiation between marginal and central cell territories. Dissection and transplantation as well as vital staining show that the marginal material is restricted to a seam approximately 20 μm in width, surrounding the much larger mass of central ...

Transepithelial Cytophagy by Trichoplax adhaerens F. E. Schulze (Placozoa) Feeding on Yeast
After accidental observations of unicellular algae trapped in the intermediate layer of Trichoplax, dead yeast cells were offered systematically as a food. Some of them could be found several hours later engulfed by the big tetraploid fibre cells closely beneath the dorsal epithelium of the animal.

Bioeffects of Prunus spinosa L. fruit ethanol extract on reproduction and phenotypic plasticity of Trichoplax adhaerens Schulze, 1883 (Placozoa) [PDF]
The aim of this work was to test and analyse the bioeffects of Prunus spinosa L. (Rosacaee) fruit ethanol extract on Trichoplax adhaerens Schulze, 1883 (Placozoa) laboratory cultures which—for the first time—were employed as in vivo biological model to ...

The early ANTP gene repertoire: insights from the placozoan genome. [PDF]
The evolution of ANTP genes in the Metazoa has been the subject of conflicting hypotheses derived from full or partial gene sequences and genomic organization in higher animals.

Trichoplax adhaerens reveals a network of nuclear receptors sensitive to 9-cis-retinoic acid at the base of metazoan evolution [PDF]
Trichoplax adhaerens, the only known species of Placozoa is likely to be closely related to an early metazoan that preceded branching of Cnidaria and Bilateria.

Amino acids integrate behaviors in nerveless placozoans
Placozoans are the simplest known free-living animals without recognized neurons and muscles but a complex behavioral repertoire. However, mechanisms and cellular bases of behavioral coordination are unknown.

Comparative genomics and the nature of placozoan species. [PDF]
Placozoans are a phylum of nonbilaterian marine animals currently represented by a single described species, Trichoplax adhaerens, Schulze 1883. Placozoans arguably show the simplest animal morphology, which is identical among isolates collected ...

Non-coding RNA annotation of the genome of Trichoplax adhaerens [PDF]
A detailed annotation of non-protein coding RNAs is typically missing in initial releases of newly sequenced genomes. Here we report on a comprehensive ncRNA annotation of the genome of Trichoplax adhaerens, the presumably most basal metazoan whose genome has been published to-date.

Abstract The hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF) prolyl‐hydroxylases (human PHD1‐3) catalyze prolyl hydroxylation in oxygen‐dependent degradation (ODD) domains of HIFα isoforms, modifications that signal for HIFα proteasomal degradation in an oxygen‐dependent manner. PHD inhibitors are used for treatment of anemia in kidney disease. Increased erythropoietin
