The occurrence of chitin in the hemocytes of invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yesZoology, 2011
The light-organ symbiosis of Euprymna scolopes, the Hawaiian bobtail squid, is a useful model for the study of animal-microbe interactions. Recent analyses have demonstrated that chitin breakdown products play a role in communication between E. scolopes and its bacterial symbiont Vibrio fischeri.

CHARACTERIZATION OF THE HEMOCYTES OF SUSCEPTIBLE AND RESISTANT BIOMPHALARIA ALEXANDRINA SNAIL [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2016
The internal defense system consists of soluble components of hemolymph and circulating cells known as hemocytes. The circulating hemocytes play a central role in innate immunity. This work aimed to study the hemocytes of both susceptible and resistant B.

How cadmium and copper change the sensitivity of the hemocytes of Steatoda grossa spider on immunostimulation: qualitative and quantitative analysis

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2023
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of hemocytes of adult Steatoda grossa females to cadmium and copper administered orally for 4 weeks or 12 months, and to check the metabolic condition of these cells after immunostimulation with ...

Single-cell transcriptome maps of myeloid blood cell lineages in Drosophila

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
How the Drosophila lymph gland hemocytes develop and are regulated at a single-cell level is unclear. Here, the authors use single-cell RNA sequencing to show heterogeneity of developing hemocytes in the lymph gland and how they react to wasp infestation,

Hemocytes in Myriapoda (Arthropoda): a review [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2009
Hemocyte types described in the different subtaxa of Myriapoda are presented and characterised. They comprise (1) prohemocytes, (2) plasmatocytes and (3) two different forms of granular hemocytes; these three have been found in all taxa investigated ...

Existence of prophenoloxidase in wing discs: a source of plasma prophenoloxidase in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In insects, hemocytes are considered as the only source of plasma prophenoloxidase (PPO). PPO also exists in the hemocytes of the hematopoietic organ that is connected to the wing disc of Bombyx mori.

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.

Characterization of the immune response of the north scallop Argopecten purpuratus (Lamarck, 1819) (Mollusca: Bivalvia)

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2002
The immune response in mollusks has an important role as a defense against bacteriae, fungi, protozoa and metazoans. The hemocytes are responsible for generating different kinds of innate responses such as: phagocytosis, encapsulation and production of ...
