Abstract
To better understand the origin of animal cell types, body plans, and other morphological features, further biological knowledge and understanding are needed from non-bilaterian phyla, namely, Placozoa, Ctenophora, and Porifera. This chapter describes recent cell staining approaches that have been developed in three phylogenetically distinct sponge species-the homoscleromorph Oscarella lobularis, and the demosponges Amphimedon queenslandica and Lycopodina hypogea-to enable analyses of cell death, proliferation, and migration. These methods allow for a more detailed understanding of cellular behaviors and fates, and morphogenetic processes in poriferans, building on current knowledge of sponge cell biology that relies chiefly on classical (static) histological observations.
