Abstract

The expression and alterations in the expression of various receptors including Fc (IgG2b), complement and lectin-like receptors and other surface determinants including I-A antigens and surface mannosyl groups has been described on resident-, glycogen- andCorynebacterium parvum-elicited mouse peritoneal macrophages. The influence of chemotactic factors on the expression of these membrane constituents has also been studied.
