THE PARTICULATE HYDROLASES OF MACROPHAGES : II. BIOCHEMICAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL RESPONSE TO PARTICLE INGESTION

The influence of phagocytosis on the morphological and biochemical properties of macrophage hydrolase-containing granules has been studied in vitro. Following the uptake of large numbers of heat-killed bacteria, an intracellular rearrangement of hydrolytic enzymes occurred. This was associated with...
