Colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) produced by two simian virus 40(SV40) transformed macrophage cell lines ( BAMl and BAM3 ), and three hybrids derived from fusion between BAM3 and a Chinese hamster cell line (hs222-16) were examined. HM3-11 and HM3-14 produce two molecular species of CSF, which are

Abstract
This work was performed with L 428, a cell line established in 1978 from a patient with Hodgkin's disease. These in vitro cells represent counterparts of in vivo Hodgkin and Sternberg‐Reed cells. L 428 and its derived sublines produce a significant amount of colony‐stimulatling factor (CSF) compared to standard preparations of CSF (fetal liver conditioned medium). Hodgkin‐cell‐derived conditioned medium, tested in cord‐blood assays and in semi‐solid agar systems, induced myeloproliferation predominantly. Production of CSF is independent of fetal calf serum concentration in the cultures. L 428‐conditioined medium could provide an excellent source for characterization and purification of granulocyte CSF.
