Origin and Functions of Tunicate Hemocytes

2016
Tunicates, or urochordates, are a subphylum of the phylum Chordata, sharing with other members of the phylum: (1) a permanent or temporary notochord, in the form of a dorsal rod; (2) a central nervous system, in the form of a dorsal tube; (3) a pharynx provided with gill slits or pharyngeal pouches, and a ventral gland secreting iodoproteins (endostyle

Cytotoxic Activity of Tunicate Hemocytes

1996
Tunicates (protochordates) are filter-feeding marine invertebrates with a worldwide distribution. In their larval form, they exhibit many of the features characteristic of the vertebrates. The larva, with a tail, notochord, and dorsal neural tube, upon settlement undergoes a remarkable metamorphosis in which it loses most of its chordate ...

Comparative biochemistry of phagocytizing insect hemocytes

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1973
Abstract 1. 1. The respiratory increment associated with phagocytosis by mammalian leukocytes is absent in Blaberus craniifer hemocytes. 2. 2. The glycolytic pathway provides energy for particle engulfment in both mammalian leukocytes and B. craniifer phagocytes. 3. 3.

Cadmium turnover in the hemocytes of Mercenaria mercenaria (L.) in relation to hemocyte turnover

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Endocrinology, 1999
The turnover of cadmium (Cd) in the hemocytes of the quahog Mercenaria mercenaria L. was investigated using 109Cd radiolabeling, and compared to the rate of hemocyte turnover as estimated following [3H]thymidine incorporation. Quahogs were injected with 5 microl of 0.8 microM 109Cd, and the hemocytes sampled over a 60-day depuration period.

Lectin-binding to hemocytes of Mytilusedulis

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 1985
Lectin receptors for WGA, Ricinus 60, Ricinus 120, and for the agglutinin from the albumin gland of Helix pomatia were detected on the surface of Mytilus hemocytes by an agglutination assay. When hemocyte monolayers on slides were incubated with these lectins, strong rosette formation was obtained after addition of human erythrocytes. The lowest lectin

Hemocyte production in trematode-infectedLymnaea truncatula

Parasitology Research, 1991
In trematode-infected Lymnaea truncatula, as in other lymnaeids, hemocytes are formed in the connective tissue. Mitoses are found singly in blood vessels or connective tissue or occur in hemocyte nodules, developing along the mantle epithelium or associated with blood sinuses. The so-called hemocyte-producing organ in L. truncatula is not equivalent to

THE HEMOCYTES OF RHODNIUS PROLIXUS STÅL

The Biological Bulletin, 1965
1. The hemocytes of Rhodnius prolixus have been studied with phase contrast microscopy, after supravital staining, and in fixed and stained smears.2. With phase contrast microscopy, the following categories of circulating cells can be readily identified: (a) non-dividing and mitotically-dividing prohemocytes, (b) non-vacuolated and vacuolated ...

Cytophysiological features of hemocytes in cockroaches

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1972
The wide range of functional activities of circulating and sessile insect hemocytes expresses itself in highly specialized cytological terms. Electron microscopic studies carried out in five species of normal and experimentally manipulated cockroaches, in conjunction with light microscopic information, reveal a broad spectrum of structural organization
