Suppression of in vivo granulopoiesis by anti-asialo GM1 serum. 1986

Y Sadahira, and M Mori, and M Awai

In vivo effects of anti-asialo GM1 (GA1) serum on hemopoiesis were studied by morphological examination of the blood, bone marrow, and spleen and by measuring the number of granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming units (CFU-GM) per femur after injecting of the anti-serum into mice intraperitoneally. The number of circulating lymphocytes markedly decreased 2 days after injection and then recovered, but circulating granulocytes gradually declined and reached a nadir at 6 days, then rapidly recovered. Granulopoietic activity in the bone marrow was reduced on day 2, but recovered profusely from day 4, followed by marrow neutrophilia on day 10. The spleen showed marked extramedullary granulopoiesis on days 6 and 10. CFU-GM per femur increased by 24 hours, reaching a maximum value 250% of normal on day 3, then returned to the normal level. CFU-GM growth was not affected by the treatment of anti-GA1 serum plus complement in vitro. These results suggest that the proliferating compartment of the myeloid series in the bone marrow was eliminated by anti-GA1 serum injection that led to a decrease in granulocytes and an increase in CFU-GM.

D007075	Immunoglobulin M	A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin.	Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM
D007106	Immune Sera	Serum that contains antibodies. It is obtained from an animal that has been immunized either by ANTIGEN injection or infection with microorganisms containing the antigen.	Antisera,Immune Serums,Sera, Immune,Serums, Immune
D008214	Lymphocytes	White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS.	Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D008264	Macrophages	The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.
