Molting is a key feature of Ecdysozoa, but little is known about the regulation of this process in most ecdysozoans. A new study demonstrates that molting is regulated by the ecdysteroid hormone in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris.
蜕皮是蜕皮动物门的一个关键特征，但对于大多数蜕皮动物而言，我们对这一过程的调控机制知之甚少。一项新研究表明，在缓步动物模式种华丽高生熊虫中，蜕皮是由蜕皮甾体激素调控的。
