Aurelia aurita is a cosmopolite species of scyphomedusae. Its major structural patterns and life cycle are well investigated. This work provides a detailed study on development and structure of the planula in A. aurita until it completes its metamorphosis. Lifetime observations and histological study performed during the settlement and metamorphosis of the planulae demonstrated that the inner manibrium linen of primary polyp (gastroderm) develops from the ectoderm of the planula posterior end. The spatial and temporal dynamics of serotonergic cells from the early embryonic stages until the formation of the primary polyp were studied for the first time. In addition, the distribution oftyrosinated tubulin and neuropeptide RFamide at different stages ofA. aurita development were studied.

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) plays important roles in the balance of oxidation and antioxidation in body mostly by scavenging superoxide anion free radicals (O). Previously, we reported a novel Cu/Zn SOD from jellyfish Cyanea capillata, named CcSOD1, which exhibited excellent SOD activity and high stability. TAT peptide is a common type of cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) that efficiently deliver extracellular biomacromolecules into cytoplasm.

We investigated food composition and feeding selectivity of jellyfish () from the coastal aquaculture ponds in Liaodong Bay by DNA metabarcoding technology. The DNA from environmental water samples and stomach contents of were extracted and sequenced by high-throughput sequencing with 18S rDNA V4 region and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) as metabarcoding markers. Based on 18S rDNA metabarcoding, we detected 27 phyla in the stomach contents of , in which Mollusc was the dominant phylum followed by Arthropod, and 34 phyla in the environmental water samples, in which Pyrrophyta was the dominant phylum followed by Ciliophora and Ascomycota.

Jellyfish stings can trigger abrupt heart failure via toxins, leading acute mortality rise. Proposed mechanisms involve oxidative stress and apoptosis, but evidence for effective treatments is lacking. To explore the concrete molecular mechanisms of jellyfish toxin-induced cardiotoxicity and to explore effective therapeutic approaches, we established tentacle extract (TE) of jellyfish Nemopilema nomurai induced cardiotoxicity models in vivo and in vitro based Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) mice and H9C2 cells, respectively,.
