Phagocytosis of 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate copolymer particles by different types of macrophages.
Phagocytic activity (for 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate particles) in normal and thioglycollate- or proteose peptone-stimulated peritoneal macrophages, Peyer's patches macrophages, bone marrow macrophages and macrophage-like cell lines BWM, DCH 5, PU-5-lR and RAW 264.7, in suspension and after adherence to a substrate, was tested. Results of testing showed that 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate particles are advantageous for following the phagocytic activity of the above cell types.
