The effects of splenectomy and/or whole-body irradiation of nude mice before xenotransplantation of lymphoid cell lines, lymphoma, and leukemia were studied. Transplantation after whole-body irradiation resulted in the increased "take" rate of three cultured cell lines (two of T-cell-derived acute lymphocytic leukemia and one of B-cell derived acute lymphocytic leukemia) and in the tumorous gro...

acute lymphocytic leukemia cells to the level seen in 6C3HED mouse lymphoma. Asparagine requirement by other leukemic cells was inconsistent, and only four of 12 reached the level seen in acute lymphocytic leukemia. No other amino acid studied substituted for asparagine. Omission of asparagine, however, did not lower the uptake to the levels seen upon omission of cysteine, glutamine, histidine,...

Ribosomes were isolated and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was prepared from leukemic cells derived from the venous blood of patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia, acute undifferentiated leukemia, subacute myelocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, leukemic lymphosarcoma, leukemic reticuloendotheliosis, a cultured Burkitt lymphoma cell line, and phytohemagglutinin-stimulated normal lymphocyte...

cellular macromolecular fractions was studied in three human lymphoid cell lines (HR1K, RPM1 8226, and MOLT-4), in four lymphosarcomatous tumors, and in leukemic leukocytes obtained from the peripheral blood of three patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia, six with acute myelocytic leukemia, eight with chronic lympho cytic leukemia, and two with chronic myelocytic leukemia. Specific binding, ...

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society develops and distributes both detailed and easy-to-read booklets intended to help patients and caregivers communicate with healthcare providers about their treatment and support needs. The easy-to-read booklets initially were developed for newly diagnosed patients; however, the society has learned that all patients with cancer are likely to benefit from the infor...

Background: Scatter grams-graphic depictions of the cell populations in a blood sample are produced by automated analyzers. These scatter grams can be employed to screen for various hematological conditions, including anemia, leukemia, and other disorders examining gram’s population distribution patterning. Aims Objectives: In this study, we wish study generated Sysmex XN-series analyzer confir...

A murine monoclonal antibody (WI-5) was produced against a myeloid leukemia cell line (KG-1). The antibody was immunoglobulin G3K. It reacted only against KG-1 cells and failed to react against 33 other cell lines representing fibroblasts, solid tumors, and cells of myeloid and lymphatic origin. It also showed no reaction against normal red blood cells, granulocytes, platelets, monocytes, and T...
