The persistence of hemopoietic stem cells in vitro.

Cells capable of forming colonies in spleens of irradiated mice (CFU) are lost temporarily when bone marrow cells from rats or mice are maintained in culture. Rat marrow CFU go through a minimum at about 3 days after which there is a slow increase in the number of CFU in culture, reaching a maximum at 9 days. Mouse marrow CFU reach a minimum at 3 days and a maximum at 7 days. Some rat marrow CFU persist in culture for as long as 28 days.

Purification of erythropoietin.

Erythropoietin, the hormone that is the primary regulator of erythrocyte production, has been purified from anemic-sheep plasma, with a purification factor of more than 1 million. Gel electrophoresis shows that the major contaminant is desialated erythropoietin.

The activities of the citric acid-cycle enzymes in rat bone-marrow cells.

The activities of the eight citric acid-cycle enzymes of rat bone-marrow cells were determined along with several other mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial enzymes. Four of the citric acid-cycle enzymes (aconitase, succinyl-CoA thiokinase, alpha-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase) have closely similar low activities; two [isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD) and citrate synthase] have intermediate activities; the remaining two (malate dehydrogenase and fumarase) have high activities. The other enzymes surveyed also exhibited a spread of three orders of magnitude, the mitochondrial enzymes showing no less variation than the others.
