Title: Suppression of CFU-s activity by rabbit-anti-mouse brain serum can be overcome by treatment with papain. Author: van den Engh G, Platenburg M. Journal: Exp Hematol; 1978 Aug; 6(7):627-30. PubMed ID: 689124. Abstract: The suppression of CFU-s activity which is observed after incubation with rabbit-anti-mouse brain sera (RAMB) can be reversed by incubating the antibody coated cells with papain. Papain treatment does not alter the CFU-s membrane since pre-treatment with the enzyme does not protect CFU-s from the lethal effect of RAMB. This technique should allow the use of fluoresceinated or otherwise labelled RAMB for the selection of CFU-s.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
