A multi-protein receptor-ligand complex underlies combinatorial dendrite guidance choices in C. elegans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ligand receptor interactions instruct axon guidance during development. How dendrites are guided to specific targets is less understood. The C. elegans PVD sensory neuron innervates muscle-skin interface with its elaborate dendritic branches.

The use of an integrative approach to identify coelomocytes in three species of the genus Holothuria (Echinodermata)

open access: yesInvertebrate biology, 2021
Coelomocytes in the Holothuroidea are traditionally identified according to their morphology through light, fluorescence, or electron microscopy. Former studies have typically used only one method, with few works combining two or more approaches. Studies

DNA-methylation dependent regulation of embryo-specific 5S ribosomal DNA cluster transcription in adult tissues of sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have previously reported a molecular and cytogenetic characterization of three different 5S rDNA clusters in the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus and recently, demonstrated the presence of high heterogeneity in functional 5S rRNA.

Arginase Activity in Eisenia andrei Coelomocytes: Function in the Earthworm Innate Response

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Arginase is the manganese metalloenzyme catalyzing the conversion of l-arginine to l-ornithine and urea. In vertebrates, arginase is involved in the immune response, tissue regeneration, and wound healing and is an important marker of alternative anti ...

Sipunculus nudus: particulate components of the coelomic fluid and its relationship with brown bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Corpuscular components of the coelomic fluid were observed in Sipunculus nudus using cytochemical and cytoenzymatic methods. In particular, granulocytes were studied and two different types, based on morphology, chemical composition, and function were ...

Earthworm coelomocytes as a soil health assessment tool

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental contamination, 2021
Different pollutants can disrupt earthworm coelomocytes integrity and functions, and their responses can be applied as biomarkers of sublethal contaminant exposure.

Transcriptomic analysis of sea cucumber (Holothuria leucospilota) coelomocytes revealed the echinoderm cytokine response during immune challenge

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota belongs to echinoderm, which is evolutionally the most primitive group of deuterostomes. Sea cucumber has a cavity between its digestive tract and the body wall that is filled with fluid and suspended coelomic ...

Autofluorescence in eleocytes of some earthworm species.

open access: yesFolia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2006
Immunocompetent cells of earthworms, coelomocytes, comprise adherent amoebocytes and granular eleocytes (chloragocytes). Both cell populations can be expelled via dorsal pores of adult earthworms by exposure to an electric current (4.5 V) for 1 min ...

Characterization of Coelomic Fluid Cell Types in the Starfish Marthasterias glacialis Using a Flow Cytometry/Imaging Combined Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Coelomocytes is the generic name for a collection of cellular morphotypes, present in many coelomate animals, and highly variable among echinoderm classes.

The diverse Grania fauna (Clitellata : Enchytraeidae) of the Esperance area, Western Australia, with descriptions of two new species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Seven species of the marine enchytraeid genus Grania Southern, 1913 are described from sediments sampled during the 2003 International Workshop on the Marine Flora and Fauna of Esperance Bay and the Recherche Archipelago, on the southern coast of Western
