iScience
. 2024 Dec;
27(12):111443.
PMID: 39720537
Mussels and tubeworms have evolved similar adhesive systems to cope with the hydrodynamics of intertidal environments. Both secrete adhesive proteins rich in DOPA, a post-translationally modified amino acid playing essential...

PMID: 39598737
Sea cucumbers are benthic marine invertebrate members of the phylum Echinodermata. Due to the absence of a rigid skeleton, these species have developed chemical defenses based on the production of...

PMID: 38987280
Natural selection can drive organisms to strikingly similar adaptive solutions, but the underlying molecular mechanisms often remain unknown. Several amphibians have independently evolved highly adhesive skin secretions (glues) that support...

Soft Matter
. 2024 Apr;
20(24):4669-4680.
PMID: 38563822
The slug produces a tough, highly adhesive defensive secretion. This secretion is a flexible hydrogel that is toughened by a double network mechanism. While synthetic double network gels typically require...

PMID: 35975651
Sea stars adhere strongly but temporarily to underwater substrata via the secretion of a blend of proteins, forming an adhesive footprint that they leave on the surface after detachment. Their...

PMID: 35227931
Mutable collagenous tissues (MCTs) from echinoderms (e.g., sea stars, sea urchins) possess the remarkable ability to change their mechanical properties rapidly and reversibly thanks to the release of effector molecules...

PMID: 35056852
Saponins are plant and marine animal specific metabolites that are commonly considered as molecular vectors for chemical defenses against unicellular and pluricellular organisms. Their toxicity is attributed to their membranolytic...
