Title: The synthesis of antibacterial proteins in isolated fat body from Cecropia silkmoth pupae. Author: Faye I, Wyatt GR. Journal: Experientia; 1980 Nov 15; 36(11):1325-6. PubMed ID: 7449923. Abstract: Fat body from previously immunized diapausing pupae of the silkmoth, Hyalophora cecropia (Saturniidae), incubated in vitro, released antibacterial activity into the medium and incorporated 3H-leucine into the immunity proteins P1-P9. The release of antibacterial activity from fat body was also induced to some extent by injection of Ringer solution and, after 20 h in culture, by the injury of dissection.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
