Ultrastructural studies on cell fusion induced by Epstein-Barr virus or N-butyrate and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. Brief report

Abstract

The morphological changes which occur in Raji cells during EBV induced fusion are described. Of particular interest is the formation of local contacts between cells, at these points the plasmalemmae of the two cells become disorganized and cytoplasmic bridges are formed.
