RESUMOEsta revisão tem por objetivo apresentar os dados sobre a imunidade inespecífica de metazoários pecilotérmicos antárticos obtidos por nosso grupo de pesquisa com animais antárticos. Trataremos em particular dos processos de fagocitose, inflamação e cicatrização em peixes antárticos popularmente chamados "cabeçudas" (Notothenia coriiceps = N. neglecta), em estrelas-do-mar antárticas (Odontaster validus) e em ouriços-do-mar antárticos (Sterechinus neumayeri). Palavras-chaves: Fagocitose, inflamação, cicatrização, resposta imune inespecífica, Antártica. ABSTRACT UNSPECIFIC IMMUNE RESPONSE OF ANTARCTIC ECTOTERMIC ANIMALS UNDER POLAR TEMPERATURES.This review presents data on nonspecific immune system of Antarctic metazoans poekiloterms. The phagocytosis, inflammation and wound repair were analysed in Antarctic animals, the big head fish (Notothenia coriiceps = N. neglecta), Antarctic starfish (Odontaster validus) and in Antarctic sea urchin (Sterechinus neumayeri).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
