Cellular Immune Response to Parasitization in Drosophila Requires the EBF Orthologue Collier (2004)

Michèle Crozatier, Jean-Michel Ubeda, Alain Vincent, Marie Meister

The lamellocyte is induced to differentiate under conditions such as parasitization by wasps and is shown in this study to require collier, the orthologue of the vertebrate early B-cell factor.

Cellular Immune Response to Parasitization in Drosophila Requires the EBF Orthologue Collier (2004)

Michèle Crozatier, Jean-Michel Ubeda, Alain Vincent, Marie Meister

Drosophila immune response involves three types of hemocytes (‘blood cells’). One cell type, the lamellocyte, is induced to differentiate only under particular conditions, such as parasitization...

Analysis of the Drosophila host defense in domino mutant larvae, which are devoid of hemocytes

Braun, Anne, Hoffmann, Jules A., Meister, Marie

We have analyzed the Drosophila immune response in domino mutant larvae, which are devoid of blood cells. The domino mutants have a good larval viability, but they die as prepupae. We show that, on...

PVF2, a PDGF/VEGF-like growth factor, induces hemocyte proliferation in Drosophila larvae

Munier, Anne-Isabelle, Doucet, Daniel, Perrodou, Emmanuel, Zachary, Daniel, Meister, Marie, Hoffmann, Jules A., ...

Blood cells play a crucial role in both morphogenetic and immunological processes in Drosophila, yet the factors regulating their proliferation remain largely unknown. In order to address this...
