“…However, PAHs can alter the fluidity of cell membranes [46] and restrict membrane deformation, which is essential to phagocytic endocytosis [28]. This result is supported by observations on the effects of a low-dose, short-term stimulation of phagocytosis on the bivalve response to contaminants such as diesel, metals [63,70], water from industrial sources [31], and pesticides [66].…”

“…The literature reports increasing hemocyte mortality in other invertebrate species (M. edulis, M. arenaria and M. truncata) at the same MeHg concentration (10 -4 M), suggesting similar mechanisms of toxicity (Brousseau et al, 2000;Fournier et al, 2001;Sauve et al, 2002). SEM observations showed the morphology of the S. plicata hemocytes, as distinguished by surface globosity indicating cytoplasmic granules of various sizes, and by the cell extrusions (lamellipodia and filopodia) indicating the spreading capacity on a glass support.…”

“…50% with respect to Hg 2+ (Marchi et al, 2004). Cu and Zn also showed significant immunosuppressive effects, with concentrations inducing 50% inhibition of phagocytosis ranging from 10 -5 to 10 -4 M, in the species Eisenia fetida, Lumbricus terrestris, Aporrectodea turgida and Tubifex tubifex (Sauve et al, 2002). The inhibition of phagocytosis suggests the same effects of these trace metals on the morphological features of hemocytes.…”
