Immune response in insects: the role of phenoloxidase in defense reactions in relation to melanization and sclerotization

It is well known that activated prophenoloxidase (proPO) plays an important role in cuticular melanization and sclerotization. In addition, studies dealing with immune response of insects suggest that phenoloxidase (PO) is also critical in the defense reactions of insects against invaders. proPO is...
