Figure 7

Time course of phagocytic activity of human melanoma cells. A, Kinetics of melanoma cell phagocytic activity against yeast cells as evaluated by FACS analysis. Histograms are the mean ± sem of the percentages of either primary or metastatic melanoma cells containing the Congo Red-stained yeast particles at the various time points. B, Kinetics of melanoma cell phagocytic activity against latex beads calculated as phagocytic index (P.I.). Histograms are the mean ± sem of the P.I. of either primary or metastatic melanoma cells containing the latex beads at the various time points.
