In vitro growth of human myeloid leukemia bone marrow cells in liquid culture. 1978

A Ciani, and V Vanin, and A T Maiolo, and E E Polli

The myelopoietic cell growth, proliferation and differentiation of human bone marrow cells from 20 acute leukemia patients and 12 control subjects were studied by the diffusion chamber technique. The differences in proliferation patterns between normal and leukemic marrow cells are reported. Acute nonlymphatic leukemia cells do not differentiate in vitro, and retain the cytochemical characteristics of the inoculated cells. Leukemic blasts grow to form agglomerates while normal or more differentiated cells produce a population diffused over the membrane. No colony-stimulating factor is necessary for growth to occur, even for the leukemic population, which is unable to produce colony-stimulating activity.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.
