Abstract
⺠Human neutrophils develop 200 nm wide and very long extensions (cytonemes). ⺠Cytonemes consist of lined up membrane tubules and vesicles of the same diameter. ⺠Neutrophils establish contacts with cells and bacteria over distance via cytonemes. ⺠Proteome analysis and HPLC revealed secretory granular bactericides in cytonemes. ⺠Cytonemes are bactericide trafficking establishing direct contacts with destination.
