Effect of antiserum on leukemia L5178Y cells: [3H]thymidine incorporation does not reflect DNA synthesis. 1982

J Woodcock-Mitchell, and T J Yang

1. The total amount of DNA present in L5178Y cells treated with antiserum in the absence of complement was decreased whereas the rate of incorporation of [3H]thymidine into DNA during a 1 hr pulse was increased as compared with those of controls. 2. This increase in specific activity of [3H]thymidine in the DNA of antiserum-treated cells appeared to be due, at least in part, to an increase in thymidine kinase activity.
