The effect of erythropoietin on colonial growth of erythroid precursor cells in vitro.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is described for the colonial growth, in semi-solid medium, of erythropoietin-responsive erythroid cell precursors. The erythroid cell precursors were isolated by immune hemolysis from fetal mouse liver. Both the number of precursor cells triggered to proliferate and differentiate, and the size of the erythropoietic colonies formed, are directly dependent upon the concentration of erythropoietin included in the culture.

Differentiation of Mouse Yolk Sac Cells to Erythroid Cells in The Presence of Erythropoietin
Purpose: Yolk sac hematopoietic stem cells (YS-HSC) have two dominant characteristices: a larger reproductive capacity and the absence of the expression of MHC associated antigens. Therefore, these cells are promising candidates for transplantation, cell therapy and gene manipulation. There are controversial reports on the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on the differentiation of yolk sac cells...
متن کاملHemoglobin switching in sheep and goats. V. Effect of erythropoietin concentration on in vitro erythroid colony growth and globin synthesis
Erythroid colonies were generated in response to erythropoietin in plasma clot cultures of sheep and goat bone marrow cells. At low concentration erythropoietin only hemoglobin A (betaA globin) was synthesized in goat cultures, but at high concentrations 50% of the hemoglobin synthesized was hemoglobin C (betaC globin). This effect of erythropoietin on the expression of a specific beta globin g...
متن کاملIn vitro Induction of Fetal Hemoglobin in Erythroid Cells Derived from CD133 Cells by Transforming Growth Factor-b and Stem Cell Factor
Increased fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in b-globin gene disorders ameliorates the clinical symptoms of the underlying disease. 5-azacytidine, butyrate and hydroxyurea, have been shown to activate g-globin gene expression. It has also been found that hematopoietic growth factors can influence expression of g-globin in erythroid cultures and in animal models. This study was designed to evaluate the in ...
متن کاملA new candidate for the regulation of erythropoiesis. Insulin-like growth factor I.
The effect of pure human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I) on the colony formation of late stage erythroid precursor cells (CFU-e) from fetal mouse liver and adult bone marrow was studied in a serum-free culture system. We found that IGF I in physiological concentrations stimulated erythroid colony formation. The combined effect of IGF I and erythropoietin was smaller than the sum of their s...
متن کاملRetinoic acid enhances growth of human early erythroid progenitor cells in vitro.
We studied the effect of retinoic acid on the clonal proliferation of normal human early erythroid progenitor cells in vitro. Normal peripheral blood cells were cultured in methylcellulose with erythropoietin and the number of burst-forming units-erythroid (BFU-E) colonies were scored on day 12 of culture. All-trans retinoic acid increased the number of colonies in a dose-response fashion. Maxi...
