Abstract

Changes in IgG-Fc and IgM-C3b receptors of mouse peritoneal leucocytes after in vivo stimulation with Ascaris suum adult extract were studied. Erythrocyte IgG-Fc rosettes were found to initially be decreased with A. suum stimulated neutrophils, eosinophils and macrophages in comparison with nonstimulated cells. IgG-Fc rosettes then increased with time and remained high for a 60 min exposure time. IgM-C3b rosette formation was lower with A. suum stimulated leucocytes throughout 60 min of exposure and dropped off dramatically after 30 min. Unstimulated leucocytes formed IgM-C3b rosettes sooner and maintained them at higher levels for a longer period of time than stimulated cells.
