Collection, handling and care of cephalopod eggsNARA Subscribed
Research on cephalopod early ontogeny has significantly advanced in recent decades, including embryo organogenesis and neurogenesis and early behavioural adaptations, particularly in commercially important and coastal species. Within this context, here we compiled current knowledge on the collection, handling and care under experimental conditions and monitoring in the field of cephalopod eggs and egg masses. It covers field o...
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has caused unprecedented coral mortality across Florida’s Coral Reef (FCR) since 2014, raising concerns about whether coral restoration can succeed under chronic disease conditions and whether outplanting activities may increase disease transmission risk. As the disease transitioned from epizootic outbreak to enzootic persistence, we conducted a large-scale experimental outplanting to as...
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a movement disorder commonly recognized as being neurodegenerative. An increasing number of studies also show primary HD dysfunction in multiple tissues, consistent with the widespread expression of the mutated huntingtin gene. Studies of HD skeletal muscle have revealed membrane hyperexcitability and prolonged action potentials due to Cl – and K + channel dysfunction as well as decreased Ca 2+ rel...

BK channels promote action potential repolarization in skeletal muscle but contribute little to myotoniaNARA Subscribed
Patients with myotonia congenita suffer from slowed relaxation of muscle (myotonia), due to hyperexcitability caused by loss-of-function mutations in the ClC-1 chloride channel. A recent study suggested that block of large-conductance voltage- and Ca 2+ - activated K + channels (BK) may be effective as therapy. The mechanism underlying efficacy was suggested to be lessening of the depolarizing effect of build-up of K + in t-tu...
Florida’s coral reefs are facing a multi-year outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) with dramatic consequences for coral communities. However, potential anthropogenic and environmental drivers of SCTLD progression and severity remain poorly understood. This study was designed to determine the potential impacts of nutrient amendments on the progression and spread of SCTLD on reefs in Southeast Florida. In situ fer...
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) is destructive and poses a significant threat to Caribbean coral reef ecosystems. Characterized by the acute loss of coral tissue, SCTLD has impacted over 22 stony coral species across the Caribbean region, leading to visible declines in reef health. Based on the duration, lethality, host range, and spread of this disease, SCTLD is considered the most devastating coral disease outbreak e...
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has spread throughout the entirety of Florida’s Coral Reef (FCR) and across the Caribbean, impacting at least 30 coral species. The threatened hermatypic coral, Orbicella faveolata , demonstrates intraspecific variation in SCTLD affectedness with some colonies experiencing chronic disease lesions, while other nearby O. faveolata colonies appear unaffected with no disease signs over long...
