[Partially common antigenicity of macrophages, epitheloid cells and foreign body giant cells. Experimental studies on...

By means of antimacrophage sera it is possible to demonstrate partially common antigenicity of monocytes with peritoneal macrophages, reticulum cells capable of phagocytosis, mast cells and Kupper's cells. The authors continued these studies important for the explantation of cytogenetical interrelations using a special method on epitheloid and giant cells of rats. The experiments aimed for the detection of possible partially common antigenicity with the above mentioned monocytes/macrophages system.
