Michel Leclerc attempt to research lymphocytes also in Ophuirids at the level of the axial organ.On the other hand I try to study effects of the sea star IgKappa gene on human malignant cells. Since he was an independent researcher, he look for collaborators in the international network. A post of Research Director would be the welcome, in France or another country.

Does the Sea Star Discriminate Bence-Jones Protein from Rat IGG as Antigens?
Author(s): Michel Leclerc*
Immunocompetent cells were described in the sea star Asterina gibbosa: They recognize specifically various antigens as
HRP (Horse-radish peroxydase),Alkaline phosphatase, and trypsin. On the other hand when certain Asterina gibbosa
were immunized with Bence-Jones protein, other ones with Rat IGG: A crossed immune reaction occurs. The
potential sea star immune system is not broad enough to detect such antigens... View More»
