Cell-cycle manipulation of human leukemic progenitor cells with humoral adjustment in vitro

|July 1, 1981
Abstract:
The cell-cycle change of human leukemic colony-forming cells was studied using a new agar culture method featuring daily feeding of new culture medium with or without leukocyte conditioned medium (LCM). Leukemic cells could be kept out of cycle by withholding LCM from daily feeding and put back into cycle by adding LCM to the daily feeding.

Differentiation of Common Myeloid Progenitor Cells
Common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) are oligopotent cells that can differentiate into granulocytes and macrophages. Granulocytes and macrophages are essential for protecting the body against bacterial, viral, or fungal infections. They migrate from the bone marrow into the circulating blood to reach specific tissue sites where they differentiate and help in immune surveillance. However, they survive only for a few days and must be continuously made available to the organism to maintain a robust...
Regulation of Hematopoietic Stem Cells
All blood and immune cells are produced from the multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by the process of hematopoiesis. However, they all have a limited life span. In addition, many are depleted in immune surveillance or combatting an injury or infection. This makes blood one of the most regenerative tissues. Hematopoiesis helps replenish these blood and immune cells, restoring the body's normal functioning. However, overproduction of blood and immune cells can make them cancerous or...
