Histocompatibility Reactions in Invertebrates

  • Chapter
Invertebrate Immune Responses

Part of the book series: Advances in Comparative and Environmental Physiology ((COMPARATIVE,volume 24))

Abstract

There are compelling reasons to believe that the capacity of cells to discriminate between “self” and “non-self” is shared by all metazoans. The evolution of multicellular organisms must have been accompanied by the development of discriminative cellular recognition systems. Accurate discrimination is a fundamental requisite of systems that regulate the development and differentiation of clonally derived cells to produce cohesive tissues and organs.
