In Drosophila melanogaster larvae, immune-inducible lamellocytes participate in recognizing and killing parasitoid wasp eggs. However, the sequence of events required for lamellocyte generation remains controversial. To study the cellular immune system, we developed a flow cytometry approach using in vivo reporters for lamellocytes as well as for plasmatocytes, the main hemocyte type in healthy larvae. We found that two different blood cell lineages, the plasmatocyte and lamellocyte lineages, contribute to the generation of lamellocytes in a demand-adapted hematopoietic process. Plasmatocytes transdifferentiate into lamellocyte-like cells in situ directly on the wasp egg. In parallel, a novel population of infection-induced cells, which we named lamelloblasts, appears in the circulation. Lamelloblasts proliferate vigorously and develop into the major class of circulating lamellocytes. Our data indicate that lamellocyte differentiation upon wasp parasitism is a plastic and dynamic process. Flow cytometry with in vivo hemocyte reporters can be used to study this phenomenon in detail.}, year = {2016}, eissn = {1553-7374}, pages = {e1005746}, orcid-numbers = {Andó, István/0000-0002-4648-9396} } @article{MTMT:1915261, title = {Definition of Drosophila hemocyte subsets by cell-type specific antigens}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1915261}, author = {Kurucz, Judit Éva and Váczi, Balázs and Márkus, Róbert and Laurinyecz, Barbara and Vilmos, Péter and Zsámboki, János and Csorba, Kinga and Gateff, E and Hultmark, D and Andó, István}, doi = {10.1556/ABiol.58.2007.Suppl.8}, journal-iso = {ACTA BIOL HUNG}, journal = {ACTA BIOLOGICA HUNGARICA (1983-2018)}, volume = {58}, unique-id = {1915261}, issn = {0236-5383}, abstract = {We analyzed the heterogeneity of Drosophila hemocytes on the basis of the expression of cell-type specific antigens. The antigens characterize distinct subsets which partially overlap with those defined by morphological criteria. Oil the basis of the expression or the lack of expression of blood cell antigens the following hemocyte populations have been defined: crystal cells, plasmalocytes, lamellocytes and precursor cells. The expression of the antigens and thus the different cell types are developmentally regulated. The hemocytes are arranged ill four main compartments: the circulating blood cells, the sessile tissue, the lymph glands and the posterior hematopoietic tissue. Each hemocyte compartment has a specific and characteristic composition of the various cell types. The described markers represent the first successful attempt to define hemocyte lineages by immunological markers in Drosophila and help to define morphologically, functionally, spatially and developmentally distinct subsets of hemocyles.}, year = {2007}, eissn = {1588-256X}, pages = {95-111}, orcid-numbers = {Laurinyecz, Barbara/0000-0003-0620-2239; Andó, István/0000-0002-4648-9396} } @article{MTMT:1913536, title = {A directed screen for genes involved in Drosophila blood cell activation}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1913536}, author = {Zettervall, CJ and Anderl, I and Williams, MJ and Palmer, R and Kurucz, Judit Éva and Andó, István and Hultmark, D}, doi = {10.1073/pnas.0403789101}, journal-iso = {P NATL ACAD SCI USA}, journal = {PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA}, volume = {101}, unique-id = {1913536}, issn = {0027-8424}, year = {2004}, eissn = {1091-6490}, pages = {14192-14197}, orcid-numbers = {Andó, István/0000-0002-4648-9396} } @article{MTMT:1912851, title = {Hemese, a hemocyte-specific transmembrane protein, affects the cellular immune response in Drosophila}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1912851}, author = {Kurucz, Judit Éva and Zettervall, CJ and Sinka, Rita and Vilmos, Péter and Pivarcsi, A and Ekengren, S and Hegedűs, Zoltán and Andó, István and Hultmark, D}, doi = {10.1073/pnas.0436940100}, journal-iso = {P NATL ACAD SCI USA}, journal = {PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA}, volume = {100}, unique-id = {1912851}, issn = {0027-8424}, year = {2003}, eissn = {1091-6490}, pages = {2622-2627}, orcid-numbers = {Sinka, Rita/0000-0003-4040-4184; Andó, István/0000-0002-4648-9396} }
