Searching for external sources of the riboflavin stored in earthworm eleocytes [PDF]

, 2012
Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is essential to maintain immune potency in animals and plants. So far is accepted that animals cannot synthesise riboflavin; they rely on plant-sourced diets and intestinal bacteria for their supplies.

Distinct immune- and defense-related molecular fingerprints in sepatated coelomocyte subsets of Eisenia andrei earthworms

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2018
During phylogenesis different types of immunocytes such as amoebocytes and eleocytes have developed in earthworms to defend the host against microbial pathogens.

The Sea Urchin Genome as a Window on Function [PDF]

, 2008
The emphasis on the sequencing of genomes seems to make this task an end in itself. However, genome sequences and the genes that are predicted from them are really an opportunity to examine the biological function of the organism constructed by that ...

Immune Response of Nipah Worms (Namalycastis rhodochorde) Following Injection of Pseudonocardia spp.

Jurnal Ilmu Dasar
The nipah worm (Namalycastis rhodochorde) is a Polychaete species found in the nipah (Nypa sp.) mangrove ecosystem of West Kalimantan. Since its identification in 2007, research on this species has been limited. Nipah worms play a crucial role in trophic

Cell death and the immune response of the sipunculid worm Themiste petricola [PDF]

, 2010
We have recently studied the role of cell death in the immune system of the sipunculan worm Themiste petricola. Typical biochemical and morphological changes of apoptosis were induced in celomocytes of these marine worms after in vitro exposure of cells ...

Amyloid/Melanin distinctive mark in invertebrate immunity [PDF]

, 2012
Protostomes and Deuterostomes show the same nexus between melanin production, and amyloid fibril production, i.e., the presence of melanin is indissolubly linked to amyloid scaffold that, in turn, is conditioned by the redox status/cytoplasmic pH ...
