CM-DiI selectively stains hemocytes in vivo.

open access: yes, 2012
(A–B) Perfused hemocytes from mosquitoes injected with CM-DiI (red) and Hoechst 33342 (blue; nuclear stain). CM-DiI stains individual hemocytes (B) and hemocyte aggregates (A) from both naïve (A) and E. coli-infected (B) mosquitoes.

In Vitro Release of Lectins From Phallusia mamillata Hemocytes After Their Fractionation on a Density Gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Hemocytes were fractionated by centrifugation on a discontinuous Percoll density gradient from the hemolymph of Phallusia mamillata. Results obtained from microcultures of the fractionated hemocytes, sugar-inhibition experiments, SDS-PAGE, and ...

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a

Effect of the microbiome on pathogen susceptibility across four Drosophilidae species

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Four Drosophilidae species were used to investigate how variation in the host microbiome influences susceptibility to infection. Microbial composition and abundance differed among species and treatments. The effects of microbiome manipulation on host survival were both species‐ and pathogen‐specific.

Males are worse mothers: Comparing care patterns in a facultatively caring beetle

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Why should biparental care exist if offspring fare just as well when only one parent is present? In the facultatively dependent burying beetle, Nicrophorus vespilloides, manipulating environmental quality reveals that biparental care benefits offspring in form of lower personal immune requirement and parents in term of weight gain.

HEMOCYTES IN SCORPION- HETEROMETRUS XANTHOPUS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The present investigation was undertaken to study the hemocytes in scorpion, Heterometrus xanthopus. Light and phase contrast microscopic observations have shown seven distinct types of hemocytes: 2% Prohemocytes (PRs), 82% Plasmocytes (PLs), 10 ...

Morphological and molecular effects of Vibrio splendidus on hemocytes of softshell clams, Mya arenaria

open access: yes, 2009
Hemocytes Constitute the cellular part of the mollusc immune system and are involved in phagocytosis; the production of toxic oxygen radicals, antimicrobial peptides, opsonizing molecules, and lysozymes; digestion, excretion, and nutrient transport.

The Effects of Noise on the Juvenile Life Stage of Crustaceans: Behavioral, Cellular, and Molecular Responses in Procambarus clarkii

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Juvenile Procambarus clarkii exposed to noise exhibited behavioral changes, shifts in enzymatic activity, and altered expression of stress and immune genes. The findings highlight the sensitivity of invertebrate juveniles to anthropogenic acoustic pollution.

Image of hemocytes.

open access: yes, 2015
Hemocytes were classified as prohemocytes (A, A-1, and A-2), oenocytoids (B, B-1, and B-2), adipohemocytes (C, C-1, and C-2), spherulocytes (D, D-1, and D-2), plasmatocytes (E, E-1, and E-2), and granulocytes (F, F-1, and F-2) on the basis of their size ...

The Importance of the Larval Parasitoid Actia interrupta (Diptera: Tachinidae) in Low Density Eastern Spruce Budworm Populations

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Actia interrupta is an important larval tachinid parasitoid during low‐density populations of the eastern spruce budworm. In the late 1980s during the outbreak collapse, Meteorus trachynotus was initially the most important species, but was replaced by A. interrupta. Host patch size and density had no impact on the parasitism rates by A.
