A misexpression screen to identify regulators of Drosophila larval hemocyte development.

Genetics - 1 Sept 2008

Stofanko Martin, Kwon So Yeon, Badenhorst Paul

Abstract excerpt

In Drosophila, defense against foreign pathogens is mediated by an effective innate immune system, the cellular arm of which is composed of circulating hemocytes that engulf bacteria and encapsulate larger foreign particles. Three hemocyte types occur: plasmatocytes, crystal cells, and lamellocytes. The most abundant larval hemocyte type is the plasmatocyte, which is responsible for phagocytosis and is present...
