DNA synthesis in mixed cultures of rat leukocytes and allogeneic dissociated skin cells. 1971

R K Main, and K C Cochrum, and M J Jones, and S L Kountz

A proliferative response (increased DNA synthesis measured by [(3)H]thymidine incorporation; maximum at the fifth day) occurs in mixed cultures of rat peripheral leukocytes and allogeneic dissociated skin cells. This response is allospecific and is greater than that occurring in mixed cultures of corresponding allogeneic leukocytes. This mitogenic property of dissociated skin cells is not shared with other nonlymphoid cell types, for example kidney cells. Cells from four isogenic rat strains have been studied; proliferative responses occurred in the mixed cell cultures only when cell donors differed by alleles at the Ag-B histocompatibility locus.

D002478 Cells, Cultured Cells propagated in vitro in special media conducive to their growth. Cultured cells are used to study developmental, morphologic, metabolic, physiologic, and genetic processes, among others. Cultured Cells,Cell, Cultured,Cultured Cell
D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
