Optimized husbandry and targeted gene-editing for the cnidarian Nematostella vectensis

This study optimizes rearing conditions and gene-editing techniques for Nematostella vectensis, reducing its life cycle and enabling efficient CRISPR-Cas9 mutagenesis.

The rich evolutionary history of the ROS metabolic arsenal shapes its mechanistic plasticity at the onset of metazoan regeneration

This study investigates the role of ROS in regeneration across metazoans, finding conserved redox systems but variable mechanisms in different species.

Whole body regeneration deploys a rewired embryonic gene regulatory network logic

The paper compares embryonic and regeneration gene regulatory networks in Nematostella vectensis, showing regeneration reuses embryonic modules with specific network logic and identifies apoptosis as a regeneration-specific event.

Synergic coordination of stem cells is required to induce a regenerative response in anthozoan cnidarians

The paper identifies a regeneration-inducing structure in Nematostella vectensis that coordinates fast and slow-cycling stem cells to enable tissue repair after amputation.

NvERTx: A gene expression database to compare Embryogenesis and Regeneration in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis

NvERTx provides a gene expression database comparing embryogenesis and regeneration in Nematostella vectensis using RNA-seq data.
