We investigated the effect of the human ligand for flt-3 (FL) on the committed progenitor colony formation of normal bone marrow (BM) (n = 9) and BM from four aplastic anaemia (AA) and three Diamond-Blackfan anaemia (DBA) patients. Methylcellulose committed progenitor cell assays were carried out using FL alone and in combinations with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-3 (IL-3) and c-kit ligand (KL). FL alone had a limited, though significant, effect on the production of granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming unit (CFU-GM) colonies from normal BM and showed an additive effect with IL-3 and GM-CSF separately, but not in combination. FL did not increase the stimulation of KL and did not have an effect on the production of erythroid progenitor colonies. FL had no effect on the AA and DBA BMs studied.

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.

D005199 Fanconi Anemia Congenital disorder affecting all bone marrow elements, resulting in ANEMIA; LEUKOPENIA; and THROMBOPENIA, and associated with cardiac, renal, and limb malformations as well as dermal pigmentary changes. Spontaneous CHROMOSOME BREAKAGE is a feature of this disease along with predisposition to LEUKEMIA. There are at least 7 complementation groups in Fanconi anemia: FANCA, FANCB, FANCC, FANCD1, FANCD2, FANCE, FANCF, FANCG, and FANCL.
