Materials and MethodsAnimals. Mouse erythrocytes and peritoneal macrophages were obtained from Swiss mice maintained at The Rockefeller University, NY C5-deficient mouse serum was prepared from a C5-deficient strain of AKR mice (Jackson Laboratories, Bar Harbor, Maine). Erythrocytes. Sheep erythrocytes (E) in Alsever's solution (Animal Blood Center, Syracuse, NY) were washed three times in PD (solution" a" of Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (PBS)(15)] and suspended in medium 199 (Microbiological Associates, Bethesda, Md.) or in Veronal-buffered glucose containing Ca++, Mg++, and 0.1% gelatin (VBG)(16). Macrophage activator. Brewer thioglycollate medium was obtained from Difco Laboratories, Detroit, Mich., and a 4.05% aqueous solution prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions. Macrophages. The methods for harvesting and maintaining mouse peritoneal macrophages were those of Cohn and Benson (17), as previously modified (18). Cells were cultivated for 24-48 h in medium 199 with 20% heat-decomplemented (56 C, 30 min) fetal bovine serum (Grand Island Biological Co., Grand Island, NY), 100 U/ml of penicillin, and 100 gg/ml of streptomycin. In some experiments, mice were injected intraperitoneally with 1 ml of Brewer thioglycollate medium 4days before their peritoneal macrophages were harvested. Macrophages from these animals are designated activated. Latex beads, 1.1 k in diameter (Dow Chemical Co., Midland, Mich.) were washed three times in PD, suspended in PD at a concentration of 6 x 10 particles/ml, and stored at 4 C. Sera. 5 ml of normal rabbit serum was adsorbed at 4 C for 2 h with 10'mouse erythrocytes. The adsorbed serum was frozen at-70 C and used as a source of complement for cytotoxic assays. Serum was prepared from C5-deficient AKR mice and stored immediately in 0.2 ml aliquots at-70 C. It served as a source of C1423 in all experiments involving the use of complement-coated E.
