A nemertean excitatory peptide/CCHamide regulates ciliary swimming in the larvae of Lineus longissimus
Abstract Background The trochozoan excitatory peptide (EP) and its ortholog, the arthropod CCHamide, are neuropeptides that are only investigated in very few animal species. Previous studies on different trochozoan species focused on their physiological effect in adult specimens, demonstrating a myo...
