“…Thus, in response to stimulation, immune cells of echinoderms produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitrogen oxide (NO), etc. [1]. Additionally, cytokine-like substances such as interleukin IL-1-, IL-2-, IL-6-, as well as tumor necrosis factor-like molecules, were found in echinoderms also [2,3].…”

“…Additionally, cytokine-like substances such as interleukin IL-1-, IL-2-, IL-6-, as well as tumor necrosis factor-like molecules, were found in echinoderms also [2,3]. Several types of circulatory cells named coelomocytes play the key role in immune response of echinoderms, of which phagocytes and morulalike cells are the most abundant [1,4]. Echinoderm phagocytes are functionally similar to macrophages of vertebrates, as they perform phagocytosis and encapsulation of foreign material [4,5].…”
