Effect of Cyclic AMP on Release of Lysosomal Enzymes from Phagocytes

Abstract

Phagocytosis of undigestible particles causes the selective extrusion of lysosomal enzymes from macrophages and polymorphonuclear leucocytes. The process can be modified by cyclic nucleotides, prostaglandin E, and colchicine.
