Amassin, an olfactomedin protein, mediates the massive intercellular adhesion of sea urchin coelomocytes
Sea urchins have a fluid-filled body cavity, the coelom, containing four types of immunocytes called coelomocytes. Within minutes after coelomic fluid is removed from the body cavity, a massive cell–cell adhesion of coelomocytes occurs. This event is referred to as clotting. Clotting is thought to b...
