Exposure to tumour cells has previously been shown to induce mast cells to degranulate and release heparin. Isolated mastsell granules were found to be mitogenic for endothelial cells in vitro. This effect was a property of mast-cell heparin, whose potency as a mitogen exceeded that of commercial he

Clonogenic cells from peripheral blood of I3/ I6 patients with T-cell malignancies generated colonies in methykellulose in absence of added growth factors or mitogenic stimulation. Spontaneous colonies were also obtained from purified cell fractions (E-OKT3-and/or E+ cells) in 13 7 ' and 57 % of the
We studied the effects of murine recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on murine hemopoiesis in methylcellulose culture. The GM-CSF was purified from cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae transfected with a cloned murine GM-CSF cDNA. In cultures of spleen cells from no
The extraction of xyloglucan from Rosa suspension-culture cell walls (not depectinated in hot aqueous solutions) with alkali was dependent on the temperature, with 2-3 times more being extracted at 37" than at 25". At 25', 6wNaOH was the optimal concentration, but it extracted only 2S-30% ofthexylog
Glial cell transplantation into myelin-deficient rodent models has resulted in myelination of axons and restoration of conduction velocity. The shaking (sh) pup canine myelin mutant is a useful model in which to test the ability to repair human myelin diseases, but as in humans, the canine donor sup
