  • The role of the IRP1 protein, the authors found, is to posttranscriptionally repress the translation of fer1 mRNA, and the role of FER2 is to transport iron from the gut, via the hemolymph, to the peripheral tissues. —  Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences current issue
  • New types of clotting factors and defense molecules found in horseshoe crab hemolymph: their structures and functions. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
  • L-Granules contain all the clotting factors essential for hemolymph coagulation, protease inhibitors including serpins and cystatin, and anti-lipopolysaccharide (LPS) factor and several tachylectins with LPS binding and bacterial agglutinating activities. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
  • The co-localization of these proteins in the granules and their release into the hemolymph suggest that they serve synergistically to construct an effective host defense system against invaders. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
  • We have further demonstrated that RNAi-induced reduction of hemolymph levels of vitellogenin results in changes in foraging behavior and the responsiveness to sucrose of wild-type bees, supporting the forager-RGPH. —  PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles
