“…Several studies reported that the metabolites adenosine, acetylcholine, serotonin, palmitoleic acid, and others could induce larval settlement and metamorphosis of a variety of aquatic invertebrates, such as mussels, barnacle cyprids, and sea urchins (Kitamura, 1993 ; Faimali et al, 2003 ; Glebov et al, 2014 ; He et al, 2021 ). Numerous chemical cues carried by bacterial OMVs suggested their possible functions in interactions between bacteria and their animal host (Biller et al, 2014 ; Rudnicka et al, 2022 ). Furthermore, it was also verified that SP-7-OMVs, which carried signal molecules such as glycine, glutamic acid, and gamma-aminobutyric acid, could overcome cell barriers to aid in the growth and development of the host.…”
