“…Furthermore, increased phagocytosis of bacteria was observed in oyster hemocytes when the bacteria were coated with lectins (64). Uhlenbruch et al (65) have shown that the hemolymph of H. pomatia and H. aspersa could agglutinate human cells. Hemagglutination of vertebrate erythrocytes by oyster hemolymph, Crassostrea virginica, has also been reported (66).…”

In invertebrates, the innate immune system protects against a wide range of microbiological infections. Several immunological processes are involved in the interactive immune response between snails and their parasites, including phagocytosis, nitric oxide synthesis, phenol oxidase activity, lysozymes, and lectin formation. The immunological responses connected to the interaction between snails and parasites are discussed in detail in the current research. Understanding the nature of these interactive reactions will enable scientists to explore approaches to eliminate and cure parasitic infections.
