title: [Free alveolar cells in experimental pulmonary emphysema. II. Morphological studies of cells and analysis of their adhesive properties].
abstract: Morphological analysis of cells sampled by lavage from alveoli was carried out. Analysis of their adherent properties on a nylon filter was also studied. Morphological analysis was carried out by light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The authors have demonstrated a correlation between adherence of the cells to the filter and morphological characteristics of the cells. SEM disclosed a very rich configuration of the cytoplasmatic membrane and/or formation of philopodia and pseudopodia. These results correlated with the extent of emphysemic pulmonary changes. Light microscopy showed a thin veil formed by the cell membrane in cells showing highest adherent properties.
