Differential Production of Nitric Oxide and Hydrogen Peroxide among Drosophila melanogaster, Apis mellifera, and Mamestra brassicae Immune-Activated Hemocytes after Exposure to Imidacloprid and Amitraz

Abstract: Invertebrates have a diverse immune system that responds differently to stressors such as pesticides and pathogens, which leads to different degrees of susceptibility. Honeybees are facing a phenomenon called colony collapse disorder which is attributed to several factors including pesticides and pathogens. We applied an in vitro approach to assess the response of immune-activated hemocytes from Apis mellifera, Drosophila melanogaster and Mamestra brassicae after exposure to imidacloprid and amitraz. Hemocytes… Show more

“…At the cellular level, hemocytes (predominantly plasmatocytes and granulocytes) play an important role in immunity as they are involved in defense responses like phagocytosis, encapsulation, and nodulation, and show variations in their number in response to a foreign agent ( Kwon et al, 2014 ; Negri et al, 2014 ; Barakat et al, 2016 ). The adverse effects of insecticides on the hemocytes of honey bees have been reported ( Perveen and Ahmad, 2017 ; Sukkar et al, 2023 ) but similar studies for fungicides are lacking ( Inoue et al, 2022 ). Until now no information has been reported regarding the adverse effects of residual forms of captan and difenoconazole on honey bee broods.…”
