Erythropoietic cell cultures from chick embryos.

Erythropoietic cell cultures from very early chick blastoderms survive for several days They show four to seven doublings of the erythroid cells and the appropriate morphological changes from proerythroblasts to mature erythrocytes Cell cycle times are the same as in ovo for the first day of culture, but slow down thereafter The hemoglobins of both the primitive and the definitive red cell series are produced. 5-Bromodeoxyuridine added to the cultures inhibits differentiation and hemoglobin synthesis, though not cell division, but quite soon the cells cease being sensitive The effect of the drug can be reversed by the addition of thymidine.

Developmental changes of erythropoiesis in cultured chick blastoderms.

The erythropoietic area of very early chick embryos was cultured as a tissue for up to nine days to study the changes in red cell type and hemoglobin type, the cell cycle time, the cell population kinetics, and the DNA synthetase activity of these cells. It was found that the area vasculosa without the participation of the embryo proper contained the information and the timing mechanism required to produce not only the early primitive erythroid cell population, but also in due course, the later definitive cell type, each with its appropriate hemoglobin types. Also the precursors of the definitive cell type are active in DNA synthesis and therefore are probably in cycle very early in the culture period.
