Abstract The source of an adequate supply of human bone marrow for transplantation purposes presents a distinct problem. The use of cadaver marrow has been suggested. Studies of 70 human cadaver bone marrow preparations obtained from 1.5 to over 102 hours postmortem were examined by tissue culture and photomicrographic technics to correlate the survival of leukocyte motility with the time postmortem. Motile cells were present in marrow up to and including 50 hours after death, thus suggesting the possibility of using such marrow as a practical source of viable marrow cells.

Abstract Using methods described, long-term tissue cultures of human bone marrow pass through three typical growth phases : (1) a myeloid phase during which myeloid cells can be recognized; (2) a round-cell phase during which histioid and monocytoid cells predominate; and (3) a fibroblastic phase which can be maintained thereafter. The three phases are of variable onset and duration. In a culture from a patient with carcinoma of the lung, isolated colonies of polygonal cells appeared on the 51st day of continuous cultivation. These were removed and subcultured. By means of trypsinization, the sheets of polygonal cells were transferred and subcultured in bulk and in a manner making it possible to obtain replicate cultures. The morphologic characteristics and growth behavior of the strain of cells (Detroit-6 strain) are similar to those observed for HeLa cells. The pattern of growth of the Detroit-6 strain is that of epithelial cells, presumably of metastatic origin from a carcinoma of the lung. The susceptibilities of the Detroit-6 strain to infection with various viruses (poliomyelitis, Coxsackie, herpes simplex, and influenza) are similar to those observed in the HeLa strain of human malignant epithelial cells originating from a carcinoma of the cervix. The possible values of long-term tissue culture of human bone marrow have been discussed.

Abstract In cultures of normal human bone marrow in a medium of 20 per cent horse serum and balanced salt solution, estrone stimulated granulopoiesis; testosterone inhibited fibroblast formation markedly and stimulated erythropoiesis; prednisolone inhibited fibroblast formation completely and allowed continued differentiation of all blood elements in smaller numbers.
