“…A high mitotic frequency was identified in the APC and at the lateral edges of the HPT, whereas in the center of the tissue surrounding the ophthalmic artery, low mitotic activity could be detected (Noonin et al, 2012a). This finding is consistent with GhirettiMagaldi, who proposed that the walls of the ophthalmic artery do not comprise hematopoietic lobules but reticular connective tissue extending ventrally towards the digestive gland (hepatopancreas) (Ghiretti-Magaldi et al, 1977). Some primitive crustacean species have dividing hemocytes in circulation (Chirocephalus and Argulus), whereas this phenomenon is exceptional in more advanced species (Bauchau, 1981), and S-phase cells in circulation reflect prematurely released immature hemocytes or prohemocytes (Roulston and Smith, 2011).…”

“…Each lobule is surrounded by a membrane with one open end, and mitosis frequently occurs in the lobules (Ghiretti-Magaldi et al, 1977). The cells in the lobules are small with large nuclei, similar to those described in P. leniusculus (Chaga et al, 1995).…”

“…The cells in the lobules are small with large nuclei, similar to those described in P. leniusculus (Chaga et al, 1995). Ghiretti-Magaldi and coworkers also reported that within lobules, the plasma membranes of adjacent cells often form junctions (Ghiretti-Magaldi et al, 1977). In general, the HPTs in crustacean species studied thus far are similar in having a dorsal location surrounding the ophthalmic artery, with a structure of thin sheets of highly packed cells in lobules surrounded by connective tissue.…”

“…Similarly, Ghiretti-Magaldi et al described the premature release of prohemocytes (hemoblasts) from lobules, giving rise to agranular hemocytes (Ghiretti-Magaldi et al, 1977).…”

“…Studies of decapod crustaceans have shown that the HPT is located adjacent to or enveloping the ophthalmic artery (or the dorsal median artery) and on the dorsal and/or lateral sides of the cardiac stomach (Charmant, 1973;Ghiretti-Magaldi et al, 1977;Johnson, 1980;Martin et al, 1987).…”

Crustacean hemocytes are important mediators of immune reactions, and the regulation of hemocyte homeostasis is of utmost importance for the health of these animals. This review discusses the current knowledge on the lineages, synthesis and differentiation of hemocytes in crustaceans. Hematopoietic tissues, their origins, and the regulation of hematopoiesis during molting, seasonal variation and infection are discussed. Furthermore, studies concerning the molecular regulation of hemocyte formation in crustaceans are also described, and the different lineages and their molecular markers are discussed and compared with several insect species. Signaling pathways and the regulation of hematopoiesis by transcription factors are typically conserved among these arthropods, whereas cytokines and growth factors are more variable and species specific. However, considering the great diversity among the crustaceans, one should be cautious in drawing general conclusions from studies of only a few species.2

A "ventral organ" mainly made up of lipoprotein cells is observed in Jasus paulensis and all the Decapoda we have been studying. It is extensive during the early premolt stages because of the development of both number and size of cells. Sometimes, the presence of smaller finely granular cells is noted, chiefly in early premolt stages. Crystals are visible from stage D1' to stage D2 in extracellular spaces between the "adipocyte type cells." They are postulated to be calcium deposits. The "organ" contains many lipids; most of them are phospholipids (phosphatidyl-choline, phosphatidyl-ethanolamine) but a few are neutral fats. This "organ" seems to be only a preferential site for the accumulation of adipose tissues. The functions of this ventral tissue as well as those of the cyclic adipose tissue are discussed in relation to the storage of materials, synthesis of lipoproteins, and general metabolism in Crustacea.
