“…Other workers have provided evidence that ALS destroys or neutralizes the functions of a variety of circulating and fixed tissue cells other than lymphocytes, including other leucocytes, splenic giant cells and even epithelial and connective tissue elements (see Yoffey and Courtice, 1970). The glomerular mesangeitis produced rapidly by the nephrotoxic action of ALS on the kidney (Lindquist et al, 1969) (Puck and Marcus, 1956) and in vivo (Revesz, 1958; van den Brenk and Shlarpington, 1971b), a "leucocyte stimulating factor " in granulopoiesis (Metcalf,1 970) which is also present in serum of irradiated mice (Morley et al, 1971;Rickard et al, 1971a, b), a portal blood factor acting as a hlutmoral agent in liver regeneration (Fisher et al, 1971), a HeLa cell stimulating factor in normal calf serum (Salmon and Hosse, 1971) and polyaminies derived from ornithine in tissues which stimulate normal aand neoplastic growth (Tabor and Tabor, 1964;Bucher and Malt, 1971 (Fig. 7).…”
