The present paper reports the in vitro release of lysosomal enzymes in the supernatant of cultures of rat peritoneal macrophages, with the addition of Candida albicans cells. Macrophages were taken from the rat peritoneal cavity 72 hr after non-specific activation with Brain-Heart-Infusion (B.H.I.)
Both peritoneal macrophages and cell populations containing multinucleate giant cells have been shown to release preferentially acid phosphatase and beta-glucuronidase. In both instances the relative proportion of the released enzyme is the same and is higher than the release of cytoplasmic LDH indi
