Descriptor formación de rosetas
Entry term(s) inmunocitoadherencia
Scope note: Formación in vitro de agregados constituidos por una célula (generalmente un linfocito) rodeada por células antigénicas o partículas portadoras de antígeno (usualmente eritrocitos, que pueden estar, o no, recubiertos por anticuerpo o por anticuerpo y complemento). La célula formadora de rosetas puede ser una célula formadora de anticuerpos, una célula memoria, una célula T, una célula portadora de anticuerpos citofílicos de superficie, o un monocito con receptores Fc. La formación de rosetas se puede usar para identificar poblaciones específicas de estas células.

Scope note: The in vitro formation of clusters consisting of a cell (usually a lymphocyte) surrounded by antigenic cells or antigen-bearing particles (usually erythrocytes, which may or may not be coated with antibody or antibody and complement). The rosette-forming cell may be an antibody-forming cell, a memory cell, a T-cell, a cell bearing surface cytophilic antibodies, or a monocyte possessing Fc receptors. Rosette formation can be used to identify specific populations of these cells.
