Cells. Ten clones of myeloid leukemic cells were used. Three D+(nos. 9, 11, and 21) and three D-(nos. 5, 13, and 16) clones were isolated and clone-purified three times (3) from a myeloid leukemic cell line growing in culture obtained from an SL mouse with myeloid leukemia (10). The other four clones were four myeloid leukemic cell lines (1-4) (Sukster, Fibach, and Sachs, to be published) derived from four independently arising myeloid leukemias in SJL/J mice (11). The cells of all 10 lines produced leukemia after inoculation into adult animals and grew in suspension in liquid medium as myeloblasts. Cells were cultured in Eagle's medium with a 4-fold concentration of amino acids and vitamins and 10% (v/v) inactivated (560 for 30 min) horse or fetal-calf serum. The same results were obtained with both types of serum. In order to obtain the same concentration of cells for determinations of the percent of cells with receptors at 1, 2, 3, and 4 days after seeding, cells were seeded at 2.4, 1.2, 0.6, and 0.3 X 101 cells, respectively, in 5 ml of medium per 50-mm petri dish. The cells seeded at these four concentrations had the same growth rate. Normal mature macrophages and granulocytes were collected from the peritoneal cavity of mice 4 days after intraperitoneal injection of thioglycollate medium and 4 hr after intraperitoneal injection of 1% glycogen solution, respectively.The cells were washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, and suspended in Eagle's medium without bicarbonate, whose pH was adjusted to 7.0 with NaOH, before they were tested for surface receptors.Sensitization of Sheep Erythrocytes with Antibody and Complement. The erythrocytes were sensitized as described (12). Sheep erythrocytes stored at 4°in Alsevers solution were washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline and suspended in phosphate-buffered saline to give a 0.5% (v/v) suspension. An equal volume of 1:1500 dilution of rabbit antiserum directed against sheep erythrocytes was added, and the mixture was incubated for 30 min at 37°. The erythrocytes sensitized with antibody (EA) were washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline and suspended at 0.5% (v/v)
inEagle's medium without bicarbonate, pH 7.0. Erythrocytes sensitized with antibody and complement (EAC) were ob-
