    Abstract:
    A comparative quantitative investigation of colony-forming ability of mouse bone marrow hemopoietic stem cells in the case of ordinary leukemia variant (P-388) and carminomycin-resistant variant (P-388/k) was carried out. Leukemia bearing mice received single injections of increasing doses of carminomycin on the 5th day after transplantation and 24 hours later the bone marrow was investigated for quantity of colony-forming units in the spleen (CFUs). Dynamics investigation of bone marrow cells in the case of P-388 and P-388/k (without treatment) reveals the common tendency to a decrease of these cells in the period before animal death. Sensitivity of colony forming cells (CFUs) to different doses of the antibiotic of mouse bone marrow in both cases (P-388 and P-388/k) was practically the same. Dynamics of CFUs in two populations of cells after a single injection of carminomycin in doses causing the killing of 50% of CFUs showed that the antibiotic inhibited CFUs equally (50%). However this inhibition in case of CFUs with P-388/k leukemia was almost five times longer than in the case of ordinary P-388 one. Based on the investigations conducted the second injection of the antibiotic to mice with P-388/k leukemia on the fifteenth day after the first one may be recommended.
