Antimicrobial Defensin and DNA Traps in Manila Clam Ruditapes philippinarum: Implications for Their Roles in Immune Responses
Although defensins have been isolated from a variety of metazoan, their role in cellular immunity has not been answered. In the study, we found that the hemocytes of the Manila clams Ruditapes philippinarum release defensin (designated as Rpdef3) in response to Vibrio parahaemolyticus challenge. The...
