Proliferation of myeloid precursor cells in a microagar culture system

A microagar-culture system for the in vitro study of myelopoiesis committed stem cells has been reported. Stimulation was induced by a commercially available conditioned medium obtained from culture of histiocytoma cells. The effect of different concentrations of conditioned medium and a linear relation between the seeded cells and the formed colonies has been established. The granulocytic-monocytic character of cell aggregates has been shown by morphologic studies. Further possibilities for the use of the described method have been briefly discussed.
