Trochanter bone marrow: a source of normal human colony forming cells. 1979

P G de Laforest, and B Rio, and F Triebel, and N Lasmayous-Riou, and J P Clarac, and J Tanzer

In vitro studies of human hemopoiesis are often limited by the availability of normal bone marrow. We have overcome this difficulty by taking advantage of the bone marrow fragments removed during total hip replacement. We report here a comparative study of the colony forming capacity of trochanter and sternal or iliac crest marrow from five hematologically normal donors. Our data indicate that trochanter marrow is a reliable source of normal in vitro granulocyte/macrophage colony forming cells.

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.
