Ecdysozoan Feature #1: Cuticle and Molting

![Page 12: BIS2C: Lecture 29: Triploblasts: Protostomes: Ecdysozoans I](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051123/58f210391a28abdc238b4637/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Slides by Jonathan Eisen for BIS2C at UC Davis Spring 2016
Ecdysozoan Feature #1: Cuticle and Molting
• Ecdysozoans have a cuticle, secreted by the epidermis.
• For animal to grow, cuticle must be shed, or molted, and replaced with a larger one (a process known as ecdysis).
• Molting evolved ~500 mya, apparently only once. All ecdysozoans have a single common ancestor.

Slides by Jonathan Eisen for BIS2C at UC Davis Spring 2016
• In some wormlike ecdysozoans, the cuticle is thin and flexible.
• A thin cuticle allows gas and water exchange but restricts animal to moist habitats.
• In arthropods, the cuticle is an exoskeleton, thickened by proteins and chitin, a waterproof polysaccharide.
• The exoskeleton restricts movement and gas exchange; new mechanisms for these functions evolved.

Wormlike Marine Ecdysozoans
• Priapulids: !Unsegmented, three-part body plan !Burrow in soft sediments !Capture prey with a toothed, muscular pharynx that is
everted through the mouth
• Kinorhynchs: !Microscopic !Body has 13 segments, with separate cuticular plates that
are molted !Feed by ingesting sediments through their retractable
proboscis
• Loriciferans: !Minute !Not discovered until 1983 !Body is covered by six plates (lorica = “corset”)

Horsehair Worms
• Horsehair worms: very thin; up to a meter in length; most are freshwater.
• Larvae are internal parasites of insects and crayfish.
• Adult has no mouth and a reduced gut. Some may feed only as larvae; others continue to grow and molt, and may be absorbing nutrients from the environment.

• Extremely abundant and universally distributed.
• >25,000 species described.
• Includes scavengers, parasites, predators
• Many are microscopic; the largest is 9 meters long—a parasite in placentas of female sperm whales.
• Reduced musculature and digestive system (pseudocoelom)

The avermectins that Campbell and Ōmura discovered, and especially their most potent member ivermectin, can control the symptoms of these diseases by killing the larval nematodes. But they aren’t cures, because they don’t damage the astonishingly sturdy adults. And since these worms can live for a decade, and can release thousands of new larvae every day, their hosts must resign themselves to years of regular treatments.http://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2015/10/ivermectin-nobel-drugs-elephantiasis-filariasis-nematodes-wolbachia/409306/

And unfortunately, this means that killing the worms would make everything much worse, because they’d release all their Wolbachia in their death throes. “You get exploding nodules, and scrotal inflammation,” he told me. “You don’t want that. You want to kill the worms slowly, and it’s hard to think how you’d do that with an anti-nematode drug.”

Tardigrades (aka water bears)
• Fleshy, unjointed legs
• Use a fluid-filled body cavity as a hydrostatic skeleton
• Extremely small
• No circulatory or gas exchange systems
• Live in marine sands and on water films on plants

• When water films dry up, tardigrades lose water and shrink to form a dormant state that can last at least a decade.
• Tardigrades have been found at densities as high as 2 million / m^2 of moss.

Onychophorans (velvet worms)
• Live in leaf litter in the humid tropics
• Thin, flexible cuticle
• Use fluid-filled body cavity as a hydrostatic skeleton
• May look similar to arthropod ancestors
