Abstract：
:The interaction of promastigotes of the protozoan parasite Leishmania tropica with mouse peritoneal macrophages in vitro was studied by scanning electron microscopy. Motile promastigotes attached to host cells by their flagellar tips to which the macrophages responded by producing rather closely fitting lamellar sheaths and progressively enveloping first the flagellum and then the body of the parasite. Lamellar advance during engulfment was rapid in the first 10 min but much slower later on. Fully engulfed parasites could be seen after 1 h but most parasites associated with host cells remained extracellular even after 4 h. On the other hand, parasites immobilized by fixation adhered by either their flagellar or somatic ends. Engulfment proceeded at a steady rate, and by 4 h most of them were completely engulfed. Both the attachment and engulfment stages of parasite uptake were inhibited by low temperature, cytochalasin D and mild fixation of macrophages. The rheological features of the host cells' response to parasite adherence indicate that invasion by parasites is through phagocytosis rather than penetration.
