The adhesive properties of the coelomocytes of the sea cucumber, Holothuria polii, have been investigated by studying their ability to attach to glass coverslips in vitro, and their morphology examined by scanning electron microscopy. Both amoebocytes and spherule cells in cell suspensions attached themselves to glass coverslips, but spreading activity was restricted to an amoebocyte subset which assumed an extremely flattened morphology.

Abstract
The adhesive properties of the coelomocytes of the sea cucumber, Holothuria polii, have been investigated by studying their ability to attach to glass coverslips in vitro, and their morphology examined by scanning electron microscopy. Both amoebocytes and spherule cells in cell suspensions attached themselves to glass coverslips, but spreading activity was restricted to an amoebocyte subset which assumed an extremely flattened morphology.File in questo prodotto:
