Appearance of Granules in the Cytoplasm of Tumour-Cell Cultures in Contact with Lysozyme

An Erratum to this article was published on 15 August 1959

Abstract

WE have tried to establish whether or not lysozyme added in appropriate concentrations to human tumour cell cultures can produce some morphological changes in such cells. The following human tumour cells were utilized : strain Af (H.Ep 2) of epithelial nature and strain A (H.S. 1) of mesenchymal origin. These strains were kindly supplied by Dr. A. Fjelde, State Serum Institute, Copenhagen.
