The presence of mast cells in agar cultures

Experimental Hematology
J H McCarthyD Metcalf

Abstract

Using a specific stain and electron microscopy, small numbers of mast cells were detected in human bone marrow cultures. However, they were not detected in agar cultures containing murine bone marrow cells. In bone marrow cultures from three patients with acute myeloid leukemia the number of mast cells was elevated.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease with approximately 20,000 cases per year in the United States. AML also accounts for 15-20% of all childhood acute leukemias, while it is responsible for more than half of the leukemic deaths in these patients. Here is the latest research on this disease.
