... the reception of exogenous signals and subsequent endogenous signal transduction. To investigate the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic GMP (cGMP) during larval settlement of B. amphitrite , we examined the effects of an NO donor and an NO scavenger, two nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors...

... in larval settlement is more likely to be within internal signal transduction pathways. An internal role for endogenous eicosanoids is supported by the finding that indomethacin, a selective COX inhibitor, stimulates larval settlement( Knight et al., 2000 ). In summary, trioxilins derived from AA, EPA...
