Photograph of a specimen of the common European starfish Asterias rubens with a regenerating arm. Starfish shed arms when attacked by predators and then regenerate a new arm to replace the lost arm. Research by scientists at Queen Mary University of London has uncovered the mechanisms of autotomy by identifying a neurohormone that promotes arm loss in starfish.
Scientists at Queen Mary University of London have made a groundbreaking discovery about how starfish manage to survive predatory attacks by shedding their own limbs. The team has identified a neurohormone responsible for triggering this remarkable feat of self-preservation.Autotomy, the ability of an animal to detach a body part to evade predators, is a well-known survival strategy in the animal kingdom.
