Dexter-type long-term cultures (LTC) were initiated with peripheral blood (PB) and/or bone marrow cells from 11 patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and 2 with myelodysplastic syndrome in blastic transformation. Marrow and PB cells from normal subjects served as controls. Assessment of nucleated cells and clonogenic progenitors in the adherent and nonadherent fractions of LTC revealed active hemopoiesis for greater than 5 wks in 4 of 8 cultures of AML blood, and 4 of 7 of AML marrow. The morphology and kinetics of nucleated cells and progenitors with putative normal (granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming units or CFU-gm), and abnormal (blast) phenotype in LTC from AML blood were similar to those from AML marrow, and adherent cells positive for collagen I and III and vimentin were found in both types of LTC. Growth of CFU-gm colonies ceased by wk 5-8 in AML cultures, significantly earlier than in LTC of normal marrow cells (survival of greater than 10 wks), which may indicate derivation of the CFU-gm from a transformed clone or deficiency of stromal function in the leukemic state. In most AML blood and AML marrow LTCs, growth of abnormal (blast) colonies continued until wk 4-6. This study demonstrates certain similarities of morphology and function between LTC of AML blood and AML marrow cells. LTC may provide a useful model for further analysis of circulating primitive hemopoietic progenitor cells in leukemic states.  相似文献

Bone marrow cells from 42 children with acute lymphocytic leukemia in remission and 19 normal adults were preserved in liquid nitrogen for periods of up to 50 weeks. Many factors in the process of cryopreservation were investigated in an attempt to optimize the recovery of the bone marrow colony forming cells. The effect of cryopreservation on the cells which produce colony stimulating activity also was investigated. With optimization of this technique, it was observed that approximately 100% of the bone marrow nucleated cells were recovered and approximately 50% of the total colony forming cells were viable after 50 weeks in liquid nitrogen.  相似文献

In long-term cultures of murine bone marrow, clonal succession of hemopoietic cells was observed as measured by karyologic analysis. There were high oscillations in self-renewal of CFUs in the cultures. A close correlation between the CFUmix karyotype and mitotic non-adherent cells in culture (but not between these cell types and CFUs) was revealed.  相似文献

Of 31 children affected with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia the quantitative behaviour of eosinophilie granulocytes was examined in the course of the disease. Nearly all patients were treated according to a chemotherapy scheme (Memphis IV). During this therapy the eosinophils greatly diminished initially increased significantly to subnormal values and to the values of healthy persons with persisting full remission. Another significant decrease occurred during the relapse and in the pre-final stage. During each following relapse a greater diminution of bone-marrow eosinophils could be observed. Simultaneously the decrease of eosinophils led to a shift in the degree of maturation. In this connection the similar behaviour of neutrophilic and eosinophilic granulocytes of the bone-marrow must be stressed. Eventually, the lbast excrescence in the bone-marrow and its therapy cannot solely be decisive for the findings made. Relations to the lymphocytic system can be referred to.  相似文献

Peripheral blood lymphocytes incubated with tumour cells or extracts may undergo blastogenesis. This is the basis of a technique studied in children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in childhood in an attempt to predict relapse. Samples of peripheral blood and bone marrow from 82 children with varying degrees of ALL were analysed. Cultures were prepared by incubating a lymphocyte suspension with an autologous bone-marrow suspension. Final ratios of lymphocytes to bone-marrow cells (L: BM) were 1: 1 and 2: 1. Control wells received bone-marrow or lymphocyte suspension only. Cultures were incubated for 72, 96, and 120 hours. All were pulse-labelled with 3H-TdR and radioactivity was measured by scintillation counting. Results were expressed as the stimulation index, calculated by dividing the mean counts per minute (cpm) of wells containing both lymphocytes and bone-marrow cells by the sum of the mean cpm for control wells. If the stimulation index exceeded 1 at 72, 96, or 120 hours at either L: BM ratio a positive response was recorded.Seventy-six children were in clinical remission at the time of testing (group A) and six were in clinical relapse (group B). In group A 24 patients showed stimulation and relapsed later at a mean time of 3·8 months (21 with marrow disease, two with testicular infiltration, and one with lung infiltration). Sixteen patients showed stimulation and had up to 4% blasts in their bone marrow but remained in remission. Nineteen other patients showed a positive response and several factors may have contributed to this: two underwent a “rebound” lymphocytosis after stopping treatment, nine had current or intercurrent infections, two had persistent unexplained bone-marrow lymphocytosis, but six had no causative symptoms and thus their responses were “true false-positives.” Seventeen patients from group A showed no response and remained in remission for a mean of 22·9 months after testing. None of the six children in group B responded, and at testing had 17-85% blasts in their bone marrow.During the study no patient relapsed who had not shown a positive response. The technique merits further study as a guide to the presence of leukaemic cells.  相似文献

Summary The 24-h culture of bone marrow from patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) and acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) gave more analyzable metaphase cells and improved chromosome morphology compared with direct preparations. Culture increased the proportion of cytogenetically abnormal cells, and in six bone marrows where the direct preparation failed, a result was obtained from the cultured preparation. The culture of bone marrow from patients with APL led to the detection of clones carrying the t(15;17) that were not found in direct preparations. Such sequestered clones were not found in AML and acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMMoL). Cultured preparations were no better than direct preparations from AMMoL.  相似文献

1. As compared with the peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy subjects the cells in the mononuclear fraction of peripheral blood and in the bone marrow of children with ANLL show a significant higher S- and G2 + M-phase. 2. A high proliferative activity correlate with a bad prognosis or with reaching no haematological remission. 3. Frequently, aneuploid cell populations will occur in the morphological subtypes M 4 and M 5.  相似文献

1. Compared with the peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy children the cell fractions in the S- and G2 + M-phase are significantly higher in the bone-marrow of those children affected with ALL. This increase was proved in the SR- and MR-group irrespective of the cytomorphological subtype and cytochemical reaction. In patients with relapses the percentage of S-phase cells is below 6%. 2. In about 30% of our patients (mainly in the SR-group with L1-morphology) an initial DNA-aneuploidy was identified. As the risk of relapse is higher in children without DNA-aneuploidy, this symptom has a pretherapeutical-prognostic significance. 3. In the phase of hematological full remission, DNA-frequency distribution correlates with the proliferative activity of normal hematopoiesis. It provides no additional information about the pretherapeutical risk.  相似文献

Bone marrow samples, from newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and normal individuals, were grown in methylcellulose and serially recultured under identical conditions. Specimens derived from normal individuals gave rise to multilineage and megakaryocyte colonies for one to two sequential cultures. Erythroid bursts and granulocyte-macrophage colonies were observed for three to five sequential cultures. Cultures initiated from samples of patients with CML showed a rapid decline of all types of colonies. Colonies were rarely seen for more than two sequential cultures. When pooled colonies and background cells were recloned separately, secondary colonies were mainly seen in cultures of background cells. This observation is consistent with the view that secondary colonies are more likely to arise from dormant clonogenic progenitors, rather than through cells that have formed primary colonies through a self-renewal process.  相似文献

Summary To date, the small size and slow growth of eosinophil colonies in vitro has hampered study of cloned eosinophils. We found enhanced eosinophil colony size and numbers in methylcellulose cultures of bone marrow cells utilizing defined supplemented bovine calf serum (DSBCS) in combination with EL4 conditioned medium (EL4-CM). At days 9, 16 and 23 significantly more eosinophil colonies and more cells/colony were present in cultures incubated with DSBCS/EL4-CM than in cultures incubated with fetal calf serum/EL4-CM. The ability to generate large numbers of eosinophils in vitro should facilitate study of cloned eosinophils. Supported in part by a grant from the National Institutes of Health, AI 20416, and by the Mayo Foundation. Editor's statement Previous approaches to in vitro culture of eosinophils generally have achieved, at best, mixed cultures of colonies of these cells and granulocyte-macrophage colonies. The improved culture methods described in this report produce more homogeneous eosinophil cultures and larger colonies of these cells. The procedure employs EL4 murine thymoma-conditioned medium, which apparently contains eosinophil colony-stimulating activity in the absence of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating activity.

There is reported about the treatment of refractory thrombocytopenia in a 9 years old boy following the autologous bone marrow transplantation for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The megakaryocytes were found diminished in the bone marrow smears. Controls of the thrombocyte count and the kinetics with radioactively labeled platelets of a donor spoke in favour of immunothrombocytopenia. Threatening bleeding complications challenged the use of all treatment possibilities. The irradiation of the spleen was without any success. After the splenectomy the thrombocyte count increased slowly, but after a remarkable lag phase, however. A diminished reproduction capacity of the bone marrow graft for special cell sorts has to be taken into account in such cases. The usual cytodynamics after splenectomy cannot be expected at all.  相似文献

Long-term liquid cultures of normal and cyclic hematopoietic (CH) dog bone marrow produce committed granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFU-GM) and differentiated granulocytes for several weeks. Analysis of in situ fixed cultures or of cells harvested from the culture supernatants revealed that the cells had ultrastructure and surface morphology characteristic of immature and mature myeloid cells. The surface morphologies of adherent cells from both normal and CH dogs were similar. The characteristic abnormalities previously reported in neutrophils obtained from CH dogs were not observed in neutrophils obtained from long-term marrow cultures of CH dogs. These results indicate that the cellular abnormalities in the neutrophils of CH dogs may be secondary manifestations of the disease and are not inherent to the pathogenesis of the hematopoietic cells.  相似文献

The bone-marrow of 26 patients not affected with hematological diseases and 10 patients with untreated leukemia was investigated according to Dexter in long-term cultures. Survival time and cell content of those long-term cultures started with normal bone marrow were not influenced significantly, if reinoculation was made with autologeneic or allogeneic bone marrow. Even without repeated inoculation, leukemic cells grew for a longer time in long-term cultures than normal bone marrow cells. As far as the outcome of the disease is concerned, no conclusion can be drawn from the duration of cultivating leukemic cells growth.  相似文献

Bone tissue composed of typical bone trabeculae containing ground substance with incorporated osteogenic cells and osteoblast layer was formed in organ cultures of bone marrow obtained from adult mice. Electron microscopic properties of the bone formed in vitro were identical to those of the bone tissue in vivo. The mineralization of the bone took place only in the presence of Na-beta-glycerophosphate in the culture medium.  相似文献
