Genetic Ablation of <i>Drosophila</i> Phagocytes Reveals Their Contribution to Both Development and Resistance to Bacterial Infection

1 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila phagocytes participate in development and immune responses through their abilities to perform phagocytosis and/or secrete extra-cellular matrix components, antimicrobial peptides, clotting factors and signalling molecules. However, our knowledge of their functional impact on development and host resistance to infection is limited. To address this, we have used a genetic cell ablation strategy to...
