In vitro production of granulocyte–macrophage colony‐stimulating activity by murine bone marrow and spleen following vinblastine administration IN VIVO
Abstract:The production of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating activity (CSA) by isolated murine femur shafts, non-dispersed bone marrow and spleens was assessed following administration of Vinblastine (VLB). These organs were removed from 2 h to 10 days post-VLB and allowed to condition endotoxin-free medium for 48 h. CSA activity was assessed using a soft agar cloning system. The data demonstrate that CSA elaboration was maximal 24 h post-VLB, corresponding to the nadir of bone marrow GM-CFC, and 6 h after sple… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
