CELL CANNIBALISM IN CELL CULTURE OF HUMAN EPIDERMOID CARCINOMA A431

https://doi.org/10.1234/XXXX-XXXX-2012-4-7-9

Abstract

We determined certain stages of spontaneous formation of “cell-in-cell” structures in A431 cell line. Cell cannibalism was accompanied with morphological alterations in host and internalized cells and lisosome-mediated degradation of internalized cell.
