Phagocytosis of OpZ by PMN after transendothelial migration. A: phagocytosis in control PMN and PMN after transendothelial migration in response to S. pneumoniae strain D39 or Ft LVS. At 1 and 5 MOI, percentage of PMN with ingested particles was similar in all 3 groups. B: mean fluorescence intensity was similar in control PMN and PMN after transendothelial migration in response to D39 when incubated with serum-opsonized zymosan particles at 1 and 5 MOI. Flow cytometry was used to determine mean fluorescence intensity per cell as a measure of the number of phagocytosed particles. Fluorescence was slightly enhanced in PMN after migration in response to Ft LVS at 1 MOI. Values are means ± SE (n = 5–6). *P < 0.05 vs. control.
