The evolution of the metazoan Toll receptor family and its expression during protostome development
Alcalde, Andrea Orus; Lu, Tsai-Ming; Børve, Aina; Hejnol, Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in immunity and development. They contain leucine-rich repeat domains, one transmembrane domain, and one Toll/IL-1 receptor domain. TLRs have been classified into ... -
Molecular and morphological analysis of the developing nemertean brain indicates convergent evolution of complex brains in Spiralia
Gasiorowski, Ludwik; Børve, Aina; Cherneva, Irina A; Orus Alcalde, Andrea; Hejnol, Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background The brain anatomy in the clade Spiralia can vary from simple, commissural brains (e.g., gastrotrichs, rotifers) to rather complex, partitioned structures (e.g., in cephalopods and annelids). How often and in ... -
Peripheral and central employment of acid-sensing ion channels during early bilaterian evolution
Marti Solans, Josep; Børve, Aina; Bump, Paul; Hejnol, Andreas; Lynagh, Timothy Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Nervous systems are endowed with rapid chemosensation and intercellular signaling by ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs). While a complex, bilaterally symmetrical nervous system is a major innovation of bilaterian animals, ...
