Live Immune Cells Identified for the First Time in a Coral and Sea Anemone
Specialized immune cells have been identified in the cauliflower coral and starlet sea anemone that can help to fight infection. The findings are important to improve understanding of how reef-building corals and other reef animals protect themselves from foreign invaders like bacteria and viruses found in and around coral reefs.
