anemone hortensis/トニック

1 Anthopleurin-B (AP-B), a newly isolated polypeptide from a sea anemone (Anthopleura xanthogrammica) caused relaxation of the guinea-pig isolated ileum following a transient contraction at concentrations greater than 3 x 10(-9) M. 2 AP-B caused a tonic contraction followed by rhythmic relaxation of

A neurotoxic peptide, granulitoxin (GRX), was isolated from the sea anemone Bunodosoma granulifera. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of GRX is AKTGILDSDGPTVAGNSLSGT and its molecular mass is 4958 Da by electrospray mass spectrometry. This sequence presents a partial degree of homology with other

1. The experiments were performed on sensorimotor cortex using current-clamp intracellular recordings in layer V pyramidal neurones and whole-cell voltage-clamp recordings in dissociated pyramidal neurones. The intracellularly recorded neurones were classified on the basis of their firing

The crude as well as partially purified protein fractions from anemone species viz. Heteractis magnifica, Stichodactyla haddoni and Paracodylactis sinensis, collected from the Gulf of Mannar, south east coast of India were found to be toxic at different levels to mice. The mice showed behavioral
