(8) The case of occupational eczema presented here discloses two hitherto unrecognized allergens: another Bryozoa species, Electra pilosa, which proliferates in the early summer and forms encrusting colonies on various supports, and a sea-weed, Sargassum muticum, which up to now had not been held responsible for skin lesions.
(9) Bryostatins are biosynthetic products of bryozoa phyllum of marine animals.
(10) Described in the North Sea ("Dogger Bank itch") and in the eastern Channel, it begins with the hands which have touched Bryozoa, these being microscopic "moss-like animals", unrelated to algae, which form coralliform, encrusting and filamentous colonies attached to the sea-floor.
(11) They are didemnin B from marine tunicate, bryostatin 1 from marine bryozoa, and dolastatin 10 from sea hare.
(12) We suggest the unusually high relative heptadecanoic aldehyde content in the lipids of Bryozoa may be helpful in settling some problems concerning their system.
Bryozoan
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to the Bryozoa.
(n.) One of the Bryozoa.
Example Sentences:
(1) Heptadecanoic aldehyde is one of the main aldehydes in the seven species investigated comprising about 30% of the sum of these main bryozoan aldehydes.
(2) A novel process was designed for the large-scale isolation of bryostatin 1 from the bryozoan Bugula neritina L. in order to obtain multigram quantities of highly pure material for formulation studies, preclinical toxicology, and clinical trials in cancer patients.
(3) Two different lectins (termed BnA-I and BnA-II) with distinct carbohydrate specificities were identified and subsequently isolated from the marine bryozoan Bugula neritina.
(4) Three species of arborescent bryozoans share a bias in growth rate that favors reverser branches (those whose direction of growth is opposite that of their parent branch); this bias produces a common hummocky appearance to the top margin of the colony.
(5) The bryostatins, a family of macrocyclic lactones isolated from marine bryozoans, also bind to and active protein kinase C. However, they differ from TPA in the selectivity of their responses in that they behave either as agonists or antagonists of protein kinase C actions.
(6) Bryostatins are macrocyclic lactones isolated from the marine bryozoan Bugula neritina.
(7) The terminal growth of bryozoans allows a reconstruction of their growth history and generating rules from the developed pattern.
(8) Bioactivity-directed separations led to the isolation of the new alkaloid, 1-vinyl-8-hydroxy-beta-carboline [1], as the major cytotoxic component of the marine bryozoan Cribricellina cribraria.
(9) Five cheilostome bryozoans have given rise to the isolation of unique secondary natural products.
(10) Two ctenosome bryozoans are dealt with, one, Alcyonidium gelatinosum containing a sulfoxonium ion acting as hapten in an allergic contact dermatitis and the other, Zoobotryon verticillatum yielding bromogramines.

(14) The probable symbiotic relationship between A. californicum and the bryozoan Bugula neritina was discussed.
(15) Secondary metabolites from marine bryozoans are reviewed.
(16) Bryostatin 1, a macrocyclic lactone isolated from the marine bryozoan Bugula neritina, has demonstrated both antineoplastic activity against the murine P388 leukemia line in vivo and stimulatory activity against mouse and human hematopoietic progenitors.
(17) The macrocyclic lactone bryostatins, isolated from marine bryozoans, have been found to be strong inhibitors of e.g., the P 388 murine lymphocyte leukemia cell line and in vivo systems.
