Meanings
-
(not-comparable) immunologically quiescent
The level of Sp185/333 proteins in whole coelomic fluid (wCF; fluid plus cells) increases following immune challenge, as is evident from immunoquiescent sea urchins expressing little to no Sp185/333 proteins [10 ], while sea urchins challenged with LPS or PGN express many variants of Sp185/333 proteins in wCF [9 ].
