Acid phosphatase activity was examined ultracytochemically in gingival specimens to elucidate the response of plasma cells to Russell's bodies. The acid phosphatase activity was discernible in lysosomes of various morphology, some of which contained Russell's bodies. The acid phosphatase activity was stronger in the peripheries of such lysosomes, but weak activity was also found inside Russell's bodies. These findings indicated that at least some of Russell's bodies formed within the plasma cells were degraded in autophagolysosomes.
