title: Engagement of Polian vesicles during Holothuria polii response to erythrocyte injection.
abstract: The Holothuria polii Polian vesicles are organs of inflammatory responsiveness. Under antigenic provocation, they respond with remarkable structural modifications. They are also able to produce brown bodies that represent a survival strategy, used by the holothuroid, to rid the body of non-self material presented to it.
