Abstract
En 中文
• Cellular immunity in the centipede Scolopendra mutilans is functionally analyzed. • Granulocytes serve as predominant effectors for small-particle phagocytosis. • Plasmatocytes drive multicellular encapsulation against large foreign bodies. • Pathogen size determines the immune mode and involves microtubule dynamics.
