Journal ArticleDOI
Complex neural architecture in the diploblastic larva of Clava multicornis (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria)
Stefano Piraino,G. Zega,Cristiano Di Benedetto,Antonella Leone,Alessandro Dell'Anna,Roberta Pennati,Daniela Candia Carnevali,Volker Schmid,Heinrich Reichert +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe histological and cytological features of the nervous system in planulae of the hydrozoan Clava multicornis, which give rise to adult forms after settling and metamorphosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunohistochemical study of the nervous system of the tunicate Thalia democratica (Forsskal, 1775)
TL;DR: Improved knowledge of the anatomy of T. democratica is improved and the presence of a complex serotonergic system is demonstrated, which may be linked to the planktonic life of these animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural system reorganization during metamorphosis in the planula larva of Clava multicornis (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria)
Roberta Pennati,Alessandro Dell'Anna,Patrizia Pagliara,Giorgio Scarì,Stefano Piraino,Fiorenza De Bernardi +5 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the developmental dynamics of tissue rearrangements may be not uniform across different taxa is confirmed, as different cnidarian planulae may share common developmental mechanisms underlying metamorphosis, including apoptosis and de novo differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retinoic acid influences antero-posterior positioning of peptidergic neurons in the planula larva of the hydrozoan Clava multicornis
TL;DR: It is suggested that RA can alter the normal development of nervous elements in this hydroid species, supporting the hypothesis that the morphogenetic activity of RA predates the origin of chordates.
