Biol Open
. 2024 Jul;
13(8).
PMID: 38979914
Planarians are well-known model organisms for regeneration and developmental biology research due to their remarkable regenerative capacity. Here, we aim to advocate for the use of planaria as a valuable...

. 2023 Oct;
33(20):R1119-R1125.
PMID: 37875094
Achieving complex behavior in soft-bodied animals is a hard task, because their body morphology is not constrained by a fixed number of jointed elements, as in skeletal animals, and thus...

PMID: 33596337
Purpose: Review octopus ocular anatomy and describe the histopathologic findings in three octopuses diagnosed with phakitis and retinitis. Animals: Two common octopuses (Octopus vulgaris) and one giant Pacific octopus (Enteroctopus...

J Exp Biol
. 2021 Feb;
224(Pt 5).
PMID: 33536305
Controlling the octopus's flexible hyper-redundant body is a challenging task. It is assumed that the octopus has poor proprioception which has driven the development of unique mechanisms for efficient body...

Cells
. 2020 Aug;
9(9).
PMID: 32825163
Cells with contractile functions are present in almost all metazoans, and so are the related processes of muscle homeostasis and regeneration. Regeneration itself is a complex process unevenly spread across...

Proc Biol Sci
. 2019 Aug;
286(1909):20191278.
PMID: 31455193
The muscular-hydrostat configuration of octopus arms allows high manoeuvrability together with the efficient motor performance necessary for its multitasking abilities. To control this flexible and hyper-redundant system the octopus has...

Circ Heart Fail
. 2014 Nov;
8(1):79-88.
PMID: 25424392
Background: New therapeutic approaches to improve cardiac contractility without severe risk would improve the management of acute heart failure. Increasing systolic sodium influx can increase cardiac contractility, but most sodium...

Curr Biol
. 2014 May;
24(11):1271-5.
PMID: 24835454
Controlling movements of flexible arms is a challenging task for the octopus because of the virtually infinite number of degrees of freedom (DOFs) [1, 2]. Octopuses simplify this control by...
