E lves Lymphocytes are capable of transforming into macrophages in vitro (16), and when stimulated with phytohaem agglutinin (PHA) may develop into nucleolated pyroninophilic cells which have a morphological resemblance to haematological stem-cells (7, 12, 22). Certain biochemical constituents have been studied in these various cells (15), and in this study the activity o f various enzymes will be com pared in the lymphocyte, the m acrophage, and the PHA-transformed cell. Methods Smears of leucocytes, m acrophages a n d PHA-transform ed cells were p rep a red as previously described (15). Alkaline phosphatase.
