| Popis: | The survival of human megakaryocytic progenitor cells (CFU-MK) after freezing using a two-step cooling technique was studied in a methylcellulose culture system, using different stimulating activities and their combinations. The best growth stimulating activity for CFU-MK was found in plasma from aplastic patients (PAP). PAP was roughly three times more potent than optimal doses of human recombinant interleukin 3 (IL3), itself two times more active than our batch of phytohemagglutinin stimulated leukocyte conditioned medium (PHA-LCM). The addition of erythropoietin (EPO) to PHA-LCM doubled the number of megakaryocytic colonies, but had no effect on the number of CFU-MK stimulated by IL3. Of the two batches of PAP used, one was optimal and the other was significantly improved by the addition of PHA-LCM. The percentage recovery of CFU-MK after freezing reached 70 to 80% in cultures stimulated by PHA-LCM and IL3 ± EPO, and 58% in PAP-supplemented cultures. However, this last value was not significantly different from the previous ones. The percentage recovery of CFU-MK in each condition tested was similar to that obtained with the other myeloid progenitors, CFU-GM and BFU-E. However, the high CFU-MK stimulating activity of PAP is hindered by its high variability and shortage in supply. Thus it seems more appropriate to recommend the use of recombinant human IL3 because of its easily standardizable and consistent CFU-MK Stimulating activity. |
