Surface Membrane Components of Circulating Invertebrate Blood Cells and Their Role in Internal Defense

  • Conference paper
Immunity in Invertebrates

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

For eukaryotic cells the importance of plasma membrane constituents in conveying chemical information regarding the extracellular environment is well established. Specific immune recognition and effector/regulatory functions in higher vertebrates are dependent upon a variety of immunocyte-associated membrane factors which include receptors for major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens [44], antigen-specific T-cell receptors [28,40], membrane immunoglobulins [71], Fc and complement receptors [13,17,54], hormone receptors [43], and glycosyltransferases [19]. Extensive knowledge of these cell surface components has been instrumental in helping to provide an understanding of the complex cellular and molecular interactions involved in the generation of immune responses in these animals.
