The interaction between human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes and the Lyme disease spirochete was investigated by incubating phagocytes with microorganisms adherent to plastic or glass surfaces. Both cell populations readily phagocytized and killed spirochetes, and antibodies facilitated but were not essential for phagocytosis.
通过将吞噬细胞与附着在塑料或玻璃表面的微生物一起孵育,研究了人类多形核白细胞和单核细胞与莱姆病螺旋体之间的相互作用。这两种细胞群体都能轻易地吞噬并杀死螺旋体,抗体有助于吞噬作用,但并非吞噬所必需。
