Isolation and Infection of Drosophila Primary Hemocytes
Phagocytosis of invading pathogens and their subsequent clearance in lysosomes is important for organismal fitness. We have devised the following protocol to extract phagocytic hemocytes from wild-type and mutant Drosophila larvae and infect the isolated

Circulating hemocytes of the snail Biomphalaria glabrata, a major intermediate host for the blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni, represent the primary immune effector cells comprising the host's internal defense system.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Plasmatocytes, oenocytoids, and granular hemocytes inside the anal papillae of larval Culex tarsalis Coquillett, Psorophora ciliata (F.), Aedes aegypti (L.) and A. atlanticus Dyar and Knab were described following examinations by light and electron microscopy.

Study of the proliferative activity of hemolymph cells in pulmonate molluscs
Hemocytes, the cell of the hemolymph, play a key role in the immune response of pulmonate molluscs to various pathogens including trematode infection.

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

Hemocyte-hemocyte adhesion by granulocytes is associated with cellular immunity in the cricket, Gryllus bimaculatus [PDF]
AbstractIn this study, more than 1,000 cricket (Gryllus bimaculatus) hemocytes were classified based on their size and morphology. These hemocytes were classified into six types: granulocytes, plasmatocytes, prohemocytes, spherulocytes, coagulocytes, and oenocytoids.

Abstract Introduction This study aims to investigate patient factors affecting the rate of plasma volume target attained in hypertriglyceridemic pancreatitis (HTG‐AP) patients undergoing double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP). Methods A retrospective analysis of 82 HTG‐AP‐interpreted patients from January 2019 to April 2024 compared target plasma ...

Individualised niches in a variable environment—Consequences for environmental change responses
Abstract Intraspecific trait variation (ITV) can be important for population performance in a variable and changing environment because individuals with different traits have different fitness responses. Furthermore, there are three mechanisms via which individuals can interact with their environment to potentially improve fitness: niche conformance ...
