  • Cell Mediated Immune Response of the Mediterranean Sea Urchin Paracentrotus
    *Manuscript Click here to view linked References Cell mediated immune response of the Mediterranean sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus after PAMPs stimulation. A Romero, B Novoa, A Figueras * Marine Research Institute - CSIC. Eduardo Cabello 6, 36208 Vigo, Spain. *Corresponding author: Tlf: 34 986 21 44 63 Fax 34 986 29 27 62 E-mail: [email protected] [email protected], [email protected] Submitted to: DCI January 2016 1 Abstract The Mediterranean sea urchin (Paracentrotus lividus) is of great ecological and economic importance for the European aquaculture. Yet, most of the studies regarding echinoderm´s immunological defense mechanisms reported so far have used the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus as a model, and information on the immunological defense mechanisms of Paracentrotus lividus and other sea urchins, is scarce. To remedy this gap in information, in this study, flow cytometry was used to evaluate several cellular immune mechanisms, such as phagocytosis, cell cooperation, and ROS production in P. lividus coelomocytes after PAMP stimulation. Two cell populations were described. Of the two, the amoeboid-phagocytes were responsible for the phagocytosis and ROS production. Cooperation between amoeboid-phagocytes and non-adherent cells resulted in an increased phagocytic response. Stimulation with several PAMPs modified the phagocytic activity and the production of ROS. The premise that the coelomocytes were activated by the bacterial components was confirmed by the expression levels of two cell mediated immune genes: LPS-Induced TNF-alpha Factor (LITAF) and macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). These results have helped us understand the cellular immune mechanisms in P. lividus and their modulation after PAMP stimulation.

  • Illustrations for Health Assessment Techniques of the Atlantic Horseshoe Crab, Limulus Polyphemus
    Illustrations for Health Assessment Techniques of the Atlantic Horseshoe Crab, Limulus polyphemus by K J B A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland March, © 2017 Katie Joy Bergdale All Rights Reserved A¤¥¦ e Atlantic horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, is a “living fossil” extant for over 340 million years (Shuster et al. 2003) and is very important for conservation and medical research. e dense egg production during spring spawning along the Northeast coast of the United States coincides with the migratory pattern of a number of species of shorebirds (Shuster et al. 2003) providing an essential source of nutrition for threatened species (Botton 2009; Smith 2012). Cells within the hemolymph, or blood, of horseshoe crabs are harvested for biomedical purposes for the production of Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL), a worldwide standard test for detecting minute amounts of bacterial endotoxins in “biologicals, pharmaceutical drugs, and medical devices” (Smith 2012). No synthetic alternative to LAL exists (Novitsky 2009; Anderson et al. 2013). Extensive research has been conducted on horseshoe crabs; however, these studies lack guidelines for health examinations, hemolymph evaluations, and necropsy techniques. Unfortunately, the increasing demands of using horseshoe crabs for shing bait and for hemolymph extraction for LAL production is leading to population decline. Veterinarians and researchers need to know how to properly examine the health of the horseshoe crab and monitor health to keep the species thriving. is study lls that gap through literature research and performed necropsies, of Limulus polyphemus. e results of this study include multiple detailed illustrations explaining internal and external anatomy, common disease states, anatomical sex comparison, inhabiting organisms, hemolymph extraction techniques, book gill anatomy, circulatory system diagram and a necropsy technique guide.

  • Cell Types, Morphology and Evolution of Animal Excretory Organs
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 21 June 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202006.0256.v1 Cell types, morphology and evolution of animal excretory organs Andrikou, Carmen; Gąsiorowski, Ludwik; Hejnol, Andreas University of Bergen, Department of Biological Sciences, Thormøhlensgate 55, 5006 Bergen, Norway Abstract Excretion and osmoregulation are fundamental processes of the organism, as they prevent the accumulation of toxic waste products in the body and control the osmotic differences between the cells and the environment. In most of the animals these phenomena are taking place through specialized organs, namely excretory organs, composed of diverse cell types that are performing tasks such as secretion and ultrafiltration. Although the morphology and embryology of excretory organs can differ dramatically, the common spatial arrangement of structural proteins and transporters as well as the similar transcriptional developmental programs underlying their formation suggests the homology of their cell types. In this chapter we discuss the current understanding of the evolution of excretory organs from a comparative morphological, developmental and functional perspective, flanked by an additional, cell-type perspective. We argue that a putative homologization of certain excretory cell types does not necessarily reflect the homology of the resulting organs, and that integrating all different levels of comparison is crucial for addressing evolutionary questions. 1. Introduction All animals (Metazoa) need to excrete metabolic waste products from their body (Larsen et al., 2014; Schmidt-Nielsen, 1997; Schmidt-Rhaesa, 2007). On a cellular level, this process is taking place via transmembrane proteins that are specialized for transporting these products in the context of ion gradients (Ichimura and Sakai, 2017; Larsen et al., 2014; O'Donnell, 2010; Schmidt-Nielsen, 1997; Weihrauch and O'Donnell, 2017).
