Název v původním jazyce

Clotting factors and eicosanoids protect against nematode infections

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) of the genera Heterorhabditis are obligate and lethal insect parasites. In recent years they have been used increasingly as biological control agents. Infective juveniles occur free living in the soil and are capable ofseeking out hosts and penetrate them through the cuticle or natural orifices. EPNs are symbiotically associated with bacteria of the genera Photorhabdus. The bacterial symbionts are essential to kill the host (within 24-48 hours) and digest host tissues.Drosophila larvae are more resistant to nematode infection than Galleria mellonella, but both can be used as natural infection model. The tripartite model (Drosophila, nematodes, bacteria) was recently established and used to show an immune function fortransglutaminase, a conserved clotting factor. In this study we used different Drosophila mutants or RNAi lines with defects in clotting or other branches of the immune system.
