Abstract

Fibroblast cultures derived from skin biopsies of patients with Fanconi anemia had doubling times (mean of five lines: 30.3 Β± 0.2 hours) significantly longer than randomly selected normal controls (mean of nine lines: 22.9 Β± 0.4 hours). Control cultures grew more slowly in the enriched media RPMI 1640 and McCoy's 5A than in MEM, while a culture from a patient with Fanconi anemia grew more slowly only in McCoy's 5A. Differences in growth characteristics between Fanconi anemia and normal cell cultures may be useful in analyzing the metabolic error determined by the Fanconi anemia gene.

## Abstract The ultrastructural findings of the bone marrow cells from 15 patients with acquired sideroblastic anemia are presented. The red cell precursors from all patients showed the presence of electron‐dense material in the mitochondria, representing most probably iron deposits. A great number
