To characterize the features of JAK/STAT signaling in Drosophila immune response, we have identified totA as a gene that is… Expand

As in many other organisms, the blood of Drosophila consists of several types of hemocytes, which originate from the mesoderm. By… Expand

Marine bivalves (such as mussels, oysters, and clams) are widespread mollusks in coastal waters at different latitudes; due to… Expand

Infection in insects stimulates a complex defensive response. Recognition of pathogens may be accomplished by plasma or hemocyte… Expand

The insect immune system serves as a key defense against attack by parasitoids. Incompatible hosts often eliminate parasitoids by… Expand

We have studied the embryonic development of Drosophila hemocytes and their conversion into macrophages. Hemocytes derive… Expand
