Les travaux réalisés au cours de cette thèse traitent des interactions immunitaires hôtes-parasitoïdes et hôtes-parasitoïdes-symbiotes chez deux espèces hôtes « modèles » : Drosophila melanogaster et le puceron du pois Acyrthosiphon pisum. Le système hôte-parasitoïde D. melanogaster – L. boulardi présente à la fois un polymorphisme dans la...

This chapter reviews data available on parasitoid wasps' VLPs, mainly on the basis of their structure and composition. This leads to the discussion how to discriminate between virus-resembling VLPs and viruses, and to suggest that some of the VLPs might be cellular secreted vesicles, such as microvesicles and exosomes described in many...

Inactivation of host Rho GTPases is a widespread strategy employed by bacterial pathogens to manipulate mammalian cellular functions and avoid immune defenses. Some bacterial toxins mimic eukaryotic Rho GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) to inactivate mammalian GTPases, probably as a result of evolutionary convergence. An intriguing question...

Recent studies suggest that the pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) has low immune defenses. However, its immune components are largely undescribed, and notably, extensive characterization of circulating cells has been missing. Here, we report characterization of five cell categories in hemolymph of adults of the LL01 pea aphid clone, devoid of...
