Abstract

Cultured rat embryonic skin fibroblasts phagocytosed rat mast cell granules added to the medium or released from co-cultured mast cells by rabbit anti-rat IgE or Compound 48/80. Electron microscopy of fibroblasts incubated with mast cell granules revealed that granules adjacent to the plasmalemma were engulfed by long, thin cytoplasmic processes.
