Relationship between A-type and C-type particles in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells.
Intracisternal and intracytoplasmic A-type particles were discovered in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells. In addition, 'mature' and 'immature' C-type particles were also seen in the intercellular space. It is believed that A particles may represent a precursor or a formative stage of the C particles.
