    Notes: Regulation of haematopoiesis was investigated by studying the response of haematopoietic tissues of mice to a perturbation of the steady state by vinblastine (VLB). Progenitor cells were quantified ly limiting dilution analysis of diffusion chamber cultures of haematopoietic cells and by the spleen colony technique. The diffusion chamber technique appears to assay granulocyte progenitor cells and those multipotent progenitor cells that become committed to granulopoiesis during chamber culture. The spleen colony technique probably assays multipotent progenitor cells.Decaying oscillatory responses to VLB were observed for progenitor cells as well as for differentiating cells in bone marrow. The period lengths of the diffusion chamber progenitor cell oscillations might indicate that these were induced by humoral feedback signal(s) from nonproliferative granulocytes. The oscillations of the multipotent progenitor cells of bone marrow were less pronounced and were earlier damped than those of the granulocyte progenitor cells. This may support the hypotesis that multipotent progenitor cells are regulated by more efficient mechanisms, which may depend on short range cell-cell interactions rather than long range humoral regulators.

    Notes: Mouse bone marrow cells have been cultured in diffusion chambers and their capacity to form spleen colonies in irradiated mice investigated after different culture periods. The number of spleen colony-forming units (CFU) in the chambers decreased during the first day of culture. The number then increased rapidly to a level significantly above the original chamber value on the third to fifth day of culture. By that time large numbers of granulocytes and macrophages had also appeared.Histological examination of spleen colonies showed that prior culturing did not alter the ratio between the different types of colonies.Cultured bone marrow cells which were transferred to new chambers retained granulopoietic capacity. This capacity increased between the first and second day of primary culturing. At this time hydroxyurea injections to chamber hosts revealed that the progenitor cells were proliferating.The results show that the granulopoietic progenitor cells of the chambers are stem cells, and that one progenitor cell type is identical with the CFU.

    Notes: Suspensions of mouse bone marrow cells, spleen cells, and blood leucocytes were cultured in diffusion chambers in dilution series in order to establish the minimum concentrations of haematopoietic stem cells (HSC). The observed frequencies of empty chambers after seven days of culture conformed to the expected frequencies of a null response in a Poisson distribution. The proportions of empty chambers could therefore be used to estimate the concentrations of HSC in the cell suspensions. The following numbers of HSC per 105 cells were found (with 95% confidence limits): Bone marrow: 50 (44-56). Spleen: 3.5 (2.8-4.3). Blood leucocytes: 1.4 (1.2-1.8). The mean (± standard error) HSC-content per femur, spleen, and milliliter blood when pooling cells from three to six donor mice was 8240 ± 600, 7660 ± 490, and 56 ± 6.5 respectively.For comparison, the HSC concentrations were also determined with the spleen colony technique; the ratio between the HSC-concentrations of bone marrow, spleen, and blood determined with the diffusion chamber technique was similar to that determined with the spleen colony technique.
