Time-resolved transcriptomics of haemocyte discrimination between challenges by nematodes and inert material in the oriental armyworm Mythimna separata [PDF]
Frontiers in ImmunologyIntroductionInsects defend against large metazoan parasites such as nematodes through haemocyte-mediated encapsulation, but how haemocytes respond to living parasites remains poorly understood.

Haemocyte variations in 35 species of grasshoppers and locusts
Science Progress, 2021 Introduction: Grasshoppers and locusts are widely distributed worldwide, causing significant losses in agriculture. The origin and functions of their haemocytes are not entirely understood.

Ultrastructure changes in the haemocytes of Galleria mellonella larvae treated with gamma irradiated Steinernema carpocapsae BA2 [PDF]
Journal of Radiation Research and Applied Sciences, 2014 The ultrastructure studies on the haemolymph of 5th larval instar of Galleria mellonella showed five types of haemocytes; Prohaemocytes, Plasmatocytes, Granulocytes, Oenocytoids and Spherulocytes.

Protein Disulfide Isomerase A6 (PDIA6) Restrains Heat-Induced Oxidative Damage in Haemocytes of the Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) [PDF]
AntioxidantsHeat stress causes severe oxidative damage and immune cell death in marine bivalves, but its upstream regulators remain unclear. This study identified regulators linking heat stress to oxidative damage in Pacific oyster haemocytes.
