Measuring Survival of Adherent Cells with the Colony-Forming Assay.
Measuring cell death with colorimetric or fluorimetric dyes such as trypan blue and propidium iodide (PI) can provide an accurate measure of the number of dead cells in a population at a specific time; however, these assays cannot be used to distinguish cells that are dying or marked for future death. In many cases it is essential to measure the proliferative capacity of treated cells to provid...
متن کاملClonogenic assay: adherent cells.
The clonogenic (or colony forming) assay has been established for more than 50 years; the original paper describing the technique was published in 1956. Apart from documenting the method, the initial landmark study generated the first radiation-dose response curve for X-ray irradiated mammalian (HeLa) cells in culture. Basically, the clonogenic assay enables an assessment of the differences in ...
متن کاملSurvival of highly proliferative colony forming cells after treatment of bone marrow cells with 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide.
We investigated the in vitro effects of 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4-HC) on human hemopoietic stem cells. Marrow cells were exposed to 4-HC and then assayed for mixed (CFU-GEMM), erythroid (BFU-E), megakaryocyte (CFU-M), and granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM) colony forming cells. We found that highly proliferative colony forming cells, especially CFU-GEMM and BFU-E, were relatively spared by ...
متن کاملInterferon-gamma stimulates the survival and influences the development of bipotential granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells.
The effects of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) on a highly enriched population of granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells (GM-CFC) were assessed. When added with myeloid growth factors (interleukin-3 [IL-3], granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor [GM-CSF], or macrophage-CSF [M-CSF]), IFN-gamma inhibited the formation of colonies in soft agar assays. Furthermore IFN-gamma stimulated a...
متن کاملInterferon-? Stimulates the Survival and Influences the Development of Bipotential Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Forming Cells
The effects of interferon-y (IFN-y) on a highly enriched population of granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells (GM-CFC) were assessed. When added with myeloid growth factors (interleukin-3 [IL-3], granulocyte-macrophage colonystimulating factor [GM-CSF], or macrophage-CSF [M-CSF]), IFN-y inhibited the formation of colonies in soft agar assays. Furthermore IFNy stimulated an increase in the ...
