[Formation of cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate in phagocytosis].
The content of cAMP in the phagocytizing macrophages increased, especially in the phagocytosis of live microbes. cAMP formed in phagocytosis was determined in the incubation medium, whereas in the cells its content remained practically unchanged. In the administration of E. coli 055 to the germ-free guinea pigs the concentration of cAMP was found to be increased in the mucosa cells of the small intestine and in the blood serum; this fact indicated that adenylcyclase system participated in the reactions of the interrelations of the microorganisms with the epithelial cells of the smal intestiine.
