The axial organ of the sea star Asterias rubens is a primitive immune organ. The B-like cells, when stimulated by various antigens, produce antibody substances correlating with Ig kappa genes, .On the other hand,component complement genes were found. For each component, one or several contigs were analyzed. It is said that Asterias forbesi, another sea-star, in earlier results, showed complement-like activity. A brief comparison with the complement system in sea urchin was performed, especially about the C3 component.
海星 Asterias rubens 的轴向器官是一种原始的免疫器官。B 样细胞受到各种抗原刺激后,产生与 Ig kappa 基因相关的抗体物质。另一方面,还发现了补体成分基因。对于每个成分,分析了一个或几个连续基因。据说,另一种海星 Asterias forbesi 在早期的研究结果中显示出类似补体的活性。与海胆的补体系统进行了简要比较,特别是关于 C3 成分。
