The dogfish shark (Squalus acanthias) was the first shark species studied since it was accessible for research purposes at the Mount Desert Marine Biological Laboratory. In addition, large numbers of dogfish are harvested annually for consumption [ 2 ] and could provide sufficient tissue for extraction during the early stages of compound ...
The spiny dogfish has broken several records in the areas of migration and gestation. This shark tends to be a highly migratory species: one shark was recorded as travelling 8,000 km (5,000 miles) after being tagged in Washington state, United States, and found again later in Japan.
Trodusquemine was originally isolated from liver extracts of the spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias). [2] It was discovered through a search for antimicrobial compounds in Squaliformes, which lack a robust adaptive immune system. It was hypothesized that their innate immunity might be conferred by endogenous production of antimicrobial compounds. [3]
Shark liver oil has been misleadingly promoted as a treatment for cancer. In addition, it has been confused with the word "Charcoal" in multiple translations. Despite claims that the alkoxy-glycerols derived from shark liver oil could reduce tumor growth, there is not sufficient evidence to prove this to be a viable treatment option. [15]
The Pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus suckleyi) is a common species of the Squalidae (dogfish) family of sharks and are among the most abundant species of sharks in the world. This species is closely related to the Spiny dogfish and for many years they were treated as a single species. [ 4 ]
The smooth lanternshark or slender lanternshark (Etmopterus pusillus) is a species of dogfish shark in the family Etmopteridae, found widely in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. It inhabits benthic environments at a depth of 274–1,000 m (899–3,281 ft), and pelagic environments at a depth of 0–708 m (0–2,323 ft).
Squalus clarkae, also known as Genie's dogfish, is a species of shark from the Gulf of Mexico and western Atlantic. It was described in 2018 and named in honor of ichthyologist Eugenie Clark . [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It was previously believed to be a part of Squalus mitsukurii , but genetic analysis revealed it to be a distinct species.
