Expansion of Drosophila haemocytes using a conditional GeneSwitch driver affects larval haemocyte function, but does not modulate adult lifespan or survival after severe infection.

3 ): in HmlΔ - GeneSwitch larvae driving ras85D V12 , the number of cells was increased more than 30-fold, whereas larvae in which bax was driven showed a trend towards an increase in cell number, although this did not achieve statistical significance ( P =0.06; Fig. 3A–E ).
