Differences in the number of hemocytes in the snail host Biomphalaria tenagophila, resistant and susceptible to Schistosoma mansoni infection
(Funpec-editora, 2010-01-01)
The relationships between schistosomiasis and its intermediate host, mollusks of the genus Biomphalaria, have been a concern for decades. It is known that the vector mollusk shows different susceptibility against parasite ...
Estudo morfológico e quantitativo dos hemócitos em larvas de Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae)
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zoologia, 1995-01-01)
Hemocytes of Diatraea saccharalis larvae aging from 13 to 26 days old were morphological and quantitatively characterized by phase contrast microscopy. Six hemocyte types were described and identified as: prohemocytes (PR), ...
Defense reactions of Dermatobia hominis (Diptera : Cuterebridae) larval hemocytes
(Inst Histol Embriol-conicet, 2003-08-01)
The defense reactions against biological (Histoplasma capsulatum and Escherichia coli) and non-biological materials (China ink and nylon thread) were tested in vivo in third instar larvae of Dermatobia hominis. The cellular ...
Differential morphology of the hemocytes present in pupal ovaries of the queen and worker honeybee
(2001-12-01)
The location and morphological features of the blood cells found in the pupal ovary of workers and queens of Apis mellifera are described in relationship with their probable function in the ovary differentiation. The ...
Hemócitos fagocitários em larvas de Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae)
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zoologia, 1995-01-01)
The ultrastructural observation of the hemocytes of D. saccharalis larvae showed different hemocyte tvpes in various stage of interaction with microorganisms, which were interpreted as bacteria. The microorganisms were ...
Ultrastructural and quantitative studies of hemocytes in the sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)
(Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2003-03-01)
Seis tipos de hemócitos circulantes foram caracterizados na hemolinfa de larvas de Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), através da microscopia eletrônica de transmissão e varredura: prohemócitos (PR), ...
Hemocyte types and total and differential counts in unparasitized and parasitized Anastrepha obliqua (Diptera, Tephritidae) larvae
(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2002-11-01)
Os tipos de hemócitos e as contagens total e diferencial foram estudados em larvas parasitadas e não parasitadas de Anastrepha obliqua pertencentes ao início e ao final da terceira fase. em ambas as fases do desenvolvimento, ...
The role of hemocytes in the immunity of the spider Acanthoscurria gomesiana
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-01-01)
Invertebrates protect themselves against microbial infection through cellular and humoral immune defenses. Since the available information on the immune system of spiders is scarce, the main goat of the present study was ...
Hemocitical responses to environmental stress in invertebrates: a review
(Springer, 2011-06-01)
Although invertebrates are recognized by the great facility to accumulate pollutants present in their environment and many of them are used as sentinel species in biomonitoring studies, little is known about the impact of ...
Gene discovery in Boophilus microplus, the cattle tick - the transcriptomes of ovaries, salivary glands, and hemocytes
(New York Acad Sciences, 2004-01-01)
The quest for new control strategies for ticks can profit from high throughput genomics. In order to identify genes that are involved in oogenesis and development, in defense, and in hematophagy, the transcriptomes of ...
