Drosophila embryonic hemocytes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2011
What are they? Drosophila embryonic hemocytes are the highly motile macrophages that represent the main cellular arm of the innate immune system in this organism. These cells are specified during embryonic development and persist through larval stages to adulthood.

A Novel Hemocyte-Specific Small Protein Participates in White Spot Syndrome Virus Infection via Binding to Viral Envelope Protein

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Hemocytes are essential components of the immune system against invading pathogens in shrimp. Many uncharacterized transcripts exist in hemocytes but the knowledge of them is very limited.

Hemocyte-Mediated Phagocytosis in Crustaceans [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Phagocytosis is an ancient, highly conserved process in all multicellular organisms, through which the host can protect itself against invading microorganisms and environmental particles, as well as remove self-apoptotic cells/cell debris to maintain tissue homeostasis.

Crayfish hemocytes develop along the granular cell lineage

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Despite the central role of hemocytes in crustacean immunity, the process of hemocyte differentiation and maturation remains unclear. In some decapods, it has been proposed that the two main types of hemocytes, granular cells (GCs) and semigranular cells

Rickettsia parkeri hijacks tick hemocytes to manipulate cellular and humoral transcriptional responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionBlood-feeding arthropods rely on robust cellular and humoral immunity to control pathogen invasion and replication. Tick hemocytes produce factors that can facilitate or suppress microbial infection and pathogenesis. Despite the importance of

On the origin of the Biomphalaria glabrata hemocytes [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006
A histologic, morphometric and ultrastructural study performed on Biomphalaria glabrata submitted to infection with Schistosoma mansoni miracidia failed to provide significant evidences that the so-called amebocyte-producing organ (APO) is really the central organ for hemocyte production.

Immunological resilience of a freshwater Indian mollusc during aestivation and starvation

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2016
Freshwater snail, Pila globosa is an edible mollusc which bears commercial and ethnomedicinal significance. During environmental aridity, P. globosa aestivates deep into the soil for four to five months.

Distinct Roles of Hemocytes at Different Stages of Infection by Dengue and Zika Viruses in Aedes aegypti Mosquitoes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are vectors for arboviruses of medical importance such as dengue (DENV) and Zika (ZIKV) viruses. Different innate immune pathways contribute to the control of arboviruses in the mosquito vector including RNA interference, Toll ...
