Abstract:: Due to an interest in the evolutionary origins of vertebrate mechanisms of immunorecognition, researchers have frequently turned to deuterostome invertebrates as model organisms. The purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea), was selected for this study of putative immunorecognition molecules in a deuterostome invertebrate. Hemagglutinins, molecules which agglutinate red blood...

Abstract:: The central nervous system of Phidippus, while comparable to that of other spiders in most respects, is distinguished by the extraordinary development of visual processing centers, associated with the complex visually-directed behavior of these animals. The primary neuropile of the anterior medial eyes consists of two distinct columnar synapsing regions....

Abstract:: Adaptive immune capabilities of the Urochordate S. montereyensis were studied. Animals repeatedly injected with bacteria were bled and the following properties were measured in vitro: agglutinin, bactericidin, bacteria-cell association. Both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria were isolated from the gut of S. montereyensis and used as antigens at 10⁸...

Abstract:: The echinoderm axial organ is located centrally, at the meeting point of the animals' "circulatory" systems. This, and its unusual histology, have prompted the implication of a number of different functions for the organ, including circulation, excretion and host defense. None of these have been definitively proven. Claims that starfish...

Abstract:: Characteristics of bacterial clearance were investigated in the purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea). Primary clearance kinetics were determined for three bacteria, a marine Gram negative motile rod, a marine Gram positive non-motile rod, and a fresh water fish pathogen, Aeromonas salmonicida. Various doses of live bacteria were injected...
