  • Title: The effect of bone marrow stromal cells on the cloning of human leukemia/lymphoma cell lines.
    Author: Seshadri R, Matthews C, Gardiakos C, Morley AA.
    Journal: Int J Cell Cloning; 1984 Sep; 2(5):277-85. PubMed ID: 6491390.
    Abstract:
    The cloning of established human leukemia and lymphoma cell lines at limiting dilutions in microwells and soft agar is described. Growth of most cell lines was improved by the addition of human AB serum and irradiated human bone marrow stromal cells. In general, the cloning efficiency in microwells was greater than in soft agar. The effect of bone marrow stromal cells appeared to be caused by a diffusable factor(s), but close cellular interaction could not be excluded since cloning in microwells produced consistent and optimal cell growth compared to growth in soft agar. It was concluded that cloning of leukemia and lymphoma cell lines in microwells was the preferred method and that similar techniques could improve the cloning of fresh leukemia and lymphoma cells.
