Immune cells in teleost and elasmobranch fish, infected and unifected
Abstract
Nella tesi vengono analizzati diversi sistemi ospite-parassita per caratterizzare e confrontare la risposta infiammatoria indotta. In particolare, vengono approfonditi la dinamica del processo infiammatorio e il reclutamento delle cellule immunocompetenti nel sito di infezione o di danno tissutale. Inoltre vengono analizzate anche cellule immunitarie innate in sistemi privi di parassiti. The thesis analyzes various host–parasite systems in order to characterize and compare the induced inflammatory response. In particular, it investigates the dynamics of the inflammatory process and the recruitment of immunocompetent cells at the site of infection or tissue damage. In addition, innate immune cells are also examined in systems lacking parasites.
