611 Citations1985Norman A. Ratcliffe, Andrew F. Rowley +2 more
This chapter discusses basic concepts and advances of invertebrate immunity and provides a functional approach for blood cell classification and the cells are arranged into five main groups—namely, progenitor cells, phagocytic cells, hemostatic cells, nutritive cells, and pigmented cells.
Infection and ImmunityLectinophagocytosis: a molecular mechanism of recognition between cell surface sugars and lectins in the phagocytosis of bacteria
315 Citations1988Itzhak Ofek, Nathan Sharon
Opsonophagocytosis can occur in three modes: in the first modes, only antibodies participate by reacting via their (Fab)2 combining sites with the appropriate antigenic determinants on the bacterial surface, and in the second mode, only the C3b or C3bi fragment of complement participates.

187 Citations1981Kenneth Söderhäll
Two species of crayfish, Astacus astacus and Pacifastacus leniusculus could recognize components from fungal cell walls, i.e. β-1,3-glucans, since a clotting process and subsequent protein (phenoloxidase) attachment to many foreign surfaces were induced by these β-2,2- glucans.

It is suggested that, in crustaceans, opsonization takes place through hierarchically stimulated exocytotic release, and biochemical activation of the prophenoloxidase activating system: first from lipopolysaccharide-sensitive cells and then from granular cells, triggered by the initially released and activated prophenloxid enzyme system.

American ZoologistPhagocytosis and Encapsulation: Cellular Immune Responses in Arthropoda
78 Citations1983Stuart Ratner, S. Bradleigh Vinson
It has been hypothesized, on the basis of ultrastructural evidence, that encapsulation, a multicellular immune response, is induced when labile hemocytes rupture upon encountering a foreign object, and this hypothesis is now supported by the results of experiments performed on an in vitro encapsulation system.

The internal defense mechanism ofHelix pomatia discriminates between different types of foreign cells as demonstrated by determinations of their clearance rates, which are apparently mediated by opsonins and opsonizing molecules.
Developmental & Comparative ImmunologyComplement-like activity in sea urchin coelomic fluid
74 Citations1983Kjell Bertheussen
It is concluded that an activity is present in echinoid coelomic fluid, which strongly resembles mammalian complement activated via the alternative pathway, which is very heat-labile and inhibited by Ca2+ concentrations below 10 mM and by low pH.

64 Citations1989Sarah E. Fryer, Charles J. Hull +1 more
Results suggest that the opsonic lectin in plasma is not simply a free form of the hemocyte-bound receptor for yeast phagocytosis, but rather a dominant carbohydrate components of the yeast cell wall (laminarin and mannan).
Journal of Invertebrate PathologyOpsonizing effect of serum and albumin gland extracts on the elimination of human erythrocytes from the circulation of Helix pomatia
63 Citations1978Lothar Renwrantz, Wolfgang Mohr
The removal of human erythrocytes of the A1 and B types from the circulation of the gastropod Helix pomatia follows an exponential curve and the elimination of the nonself particles is apparently dependent on serum opsonins as preincubation of A 1 and B ery Throcytes in Helix serum increases the rate of their clearance.
Experimental Cell ResearchThe cytotoxic reaction in allogeneic mixtures of echinoid phagocytes
61 Citations1979Kjell Bertheussen
In most cases cytotoxicity levels of 20–40% were noted according to 51Cr-release assays, which implies that there is a very high proportion of reactive cells in any given allogeneic or xenogeneic cell combination.

60 Citations1982Kjell Bertheussen, Rolf Seljelid
The finding that serum depleted of C 3 only opsonized very weakly strongly indicates that the opsonic principles is the complement cascade C 1-4-2-3 activated via the classical pathway, and that theOpsonic effect largely coincides with the coating of SRBC with C 3b.

39 Citations1977Thomas C. Cheng
Haeckel (1862) was the pioneer in reporting that the hemolymph cells of molluscs are capable of phagocytosis, and since that initial report, a number of individuals have demonstrated the phagocytetosis of nonself materials bymolluscan cells.
Journal of Invertebrate PathologyActivation of lobster hemocytes for phagocytosis
38 Citations1984Perry Z. Goldenberg, Erwin Huebner +1 more
It is suggested that the enhanced phagocytosis of lobster hemocytes was the result of both the recruitment of a quiescent precursor population during activation, and an increase in the availability of opsonin binding sites on hemocyte membranes.

Developmental & Comparative ImmunologyRecognition factors in insect hemolymph
30 Citations1983Norman A. Ratcliffe, Andrew F. Rowley
Subsequent experiments show that agglutinins probably do not act as opsonins in insects, and the hemolymph contains recognition factors which can only be activated by the cell wall constituents of naturally-occurring microbial isolates.

28 Citations1975R. Crichton, K. J. Lafferty
In the chiton (Liolophura gaimardi) phagocytic cells are responsible for the removal of foreign material from the haemolymph, and the neuropedal sinus contains a spongy network of phagcytic cells which forms a phagocytetic organ that filters hahemolymph as it moves along these major ha Hemolymph channels.

Journal of Comparative Physiology BImmune recognition in insects: conflicting effects of autologous plasma and serum
15 Citations1988Michel Breh�lin, No�l Boemare
It is concluded that haemocyte-derived humoral factors (=opsonic- like factors) act in the recognition of foreign particles by insect haemocytes, however, this recognition system requires a more thorough understanding, not only in the presence or absence of opsonic-like factors.
Journal of Invertebrate PathologyRole of divalent cations in plasma opsonin-dependent and-independent erythrophagocytosis by hemocytes of the Asian clam, Corbicula fluminea
15 Citations1987Tai‐Lan Tuan, Timothy P. Yoshino
It is concluded that hemocyte recognition of aldehyde-fixed RBCs can be accomplished by either of two mechanisms: (1) by the coating of cells with plasma factors capable of triggering the phagocytic process (opsonization) or (2) by a plasma opsonin-independent mechanism in which extracellular divalent cations in the incubation buffer stimulate uptake of nonopsonized R BCs.
