The majority of immune cells in Drosophila melanogaster are plasmatocytes; they carry out similar functions to vertebrate macrophages, influencing development as well as protecting against infection and cancer. Plasmatocytes, sometimes referred to with the broader term of hemocytes, migrate widely d

Entomopathogenic fungi that manifest infections by overcoming insect's immune response could be a successful control agent for the house fly, Musca domestica L. which is a major domestic, medical, and veterinary pest. In this study, the immune response of house fly to Beauveria bassiana infection wa

The accurate and efficient transfer of genetic information into amino acid sequences is carried out through codon-anticodon interactions between mRNA and tRNA, respectively. In this way, tRNAs function at the interface between gene expression and protein synthesis. Whether tRNA levels are dynamicall
Adaptor protein is essential for insect cytokine signaling in hemocytes

… These results, together with our previous data, suggest that the plasmatocyte population was maintained by both supply from undamaged HPOs and the propagation of circulating cells during the initial phase of at least 24h post-parasitization, while MpVLPs caused apoptosis irrespective of hemocyte species. …
