The cytogenesis of ascitic phagocytes [PDF]
Judging from our vital observation conducted mainly by tissue culture, it was firmly demonstrated that ascitic phagocytes are not histiocytes but they are the cells closely related to monocytes and that the sites of the genesis are the milky spots of the

Unconventional secretion of a rhamnose-binding lectin by Botryllus schlosseri phagocytes
Botryllus schlosseri is a colonial tunicate diffuse in shallow waters of all seas and oceans. When B. schlosseri haemocytes are challenged with nonself, circulating phagocytes respond to the recognition of foreign molecules with the synthesis and ...

This discovery, along with follow-up studies, earned Metchnikoff the 1908 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. We have come a long way since those early discoveries. A hundred years later, we now
