Abstract
WE have previously demonstrated that pinocytosis of autologous immurtoglobulins (Igs) altered by physical (heating at 80° C, X, γ or β-rays) or chemical agents ((NO3)2Hg; (NO3)2Pb) is significantly increased as compared with unaltered Igs1,2. We have now extended our investigations by studying the pinocytosis of unaltered Igs from various species. It is already known that Igs markedly increase pinocytosis by various types of cells4–8.
