Specialization of the macrophage plasma membrane at sites of interaction with opsonized erythrocytes

We incubated mouse peritoneal macrophages for 3-8 min at 37 degrees C with antibody-coated sheep erythrocytes and examined regions of close interaction between the two cell types by electron microscopy. At sites of focal macrophage-erythrocyte contact we observed a distinctive specialization of the...
