[Ultrastructural characteristics of autorosette formation in vivo].

The interaction of extravascular erythrocytes with lymphocytes, macrophages, polymorphonuclear leucocytes and fibroblast like cells in human gastric ulcer and in post-ulcer scar was studied by means of electron microscopy and cytochemical methods. It was shown that such interaction results in autologous rosette formation. There were also autorosette in the capillaries where autorosette forming cells were endothelial cells and lymphocytes. Many kinds of autorosette forming cells were connected with some peculiarities of ulcer process in the stomach.
