Abstract
Adhesion followed by fusion of LP-X vesicles with the erythrocyte membrane is an important contribution to the erythrocyte enlargement in patients with intra or extra hepatic cholestasis. Adhesion of LP-X vesicles is demonstrated by thin section and freeze-etch electronmicroscopy. Fusion of LP-X with the erythrocyte membrane is deduced from biochemical data and freeze-etch electronmicroscopy in that the uptake of cholesterol and lecithin coincides with the increase in smooth areas on the fracture faces of the erythrocyte membrane.Entities:
