The inter-relationships of bivalve haemocytes

Fish and Shellfish Immunology, 1999
Abstract The morphology, tinctorial properties, ultrastructure and some functions of bivalve haemocytes are reviewed in relation to the simple division of these cells into granular and agranular haemocytes, as suggested by Cheng. Whereas granular haemocytes (granulocytes) form a distinct group, agranular haemocytes are heterogeneous in appearance and

Crustacean haemocytes and haematopoiesis

Aquaculture, 2000
Crustacean haemocytes play important roles in the host immune response including recognition, phagocytosis, melanization, cytotoxicity and cell-cell communication.

The haemocytes of balanomorph barnacles

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1988
The haemolymph of balanomorph barnacles contained very few haemocytes. The hyaline cell was the main haemocyte type found and this cell is capable of phagocytosing foreign bodies. A few semi-granular cells were also found, but granulocytes never occurred. Haemocytes were not found within haemolymph clots.

The haemocytes of Calliphora erythrocephala (Meig.) (Diptera)

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und mikroskopische Anatomie, 1973
The haemocytes of larvae and young pupae of Calliphora erythrocephala are studied by phase contrast and electron microscopy and three cell lineages are distinguished: plasmatocytes, thrombocytoids and oenocytoids. The plasmatocytes show important modifications during larval development and at the time of histolysis, which are described and discussed in

Mitosis in the haemocytes ofSarcophaga ruficornis (diptera)

Experientia, 1979
Among the haemocytes of Sarcophaga ruficornis, only the prohaemocytes divide. Injection of phytohaemagglutinin-P induces 100% prohaemocytes to undergo mitosis but does not induce mitosis in other cells. Mitotic stages other than the prophase are apparently very short lived.

Lectin-induced haemocyte inactivation in insects

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2004
Most multimeric lectins are adhesion molecules, promoting attachment and spreading on surface glycodeterminants. In addition, some lectins have counter-adhesion properties, detaching already spread cells which then acquire round or spindle-formed cell shapes.

Insect haemocytes: What type of cell is that?

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2006
Classification of insect larvae circulating haemocytes is the subject of controversy, and the terminology used to designate each cellular type is often different from one species to another. However, a survey of the literature on insect haemocytes suggests that there are resemblances for most of the cell types and functions, in different insect species.

TBT‐induced apoptosis in tunicate haemocytes

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, 1999
Early events in apoptosis include chromatin condensation followed by DNA fragmentation as well as translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS) in the outer plasma membrane. Organotin compounds increase intracellular Ca2+ levels and cause apoptosis in mammalian cells.

Regulators and signalling in insect haemocyte immunity

Cellular Signalling, 2009
The innate immune system of insects relies on both humoral and cellular immune responses that are mediated via activation of several signalling pathways. Haemocytes are the primary mediators of cell-mediated immunity in insects, including phagocytosis, nodulation, encapsulation and melanization. The last years, research has focused on the mechanisms of
