Tests of respiratory function showed a large number of obstructive syndromes; scanning electron microscopy highlighted qualitative and quantitative alterations of the alveolar macrophages; and transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of electron-dense cytoplasmatic inclusions indicating intense and active phlogosis (external inflammation). The granulocytes showed similar organelles, but on the contrary they had abundant electron-dense particles or electron-lucent granules in the cell cytoplasm. Their cytoplasm is rich in ribosomes, vesicles, vacuoles containing electron-dense material and large mitochondria; but the rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complexes are sparse. |
