Decrease of mast cells in W/Wv mice and their increase by bone marrow transplantation
Abstract
Production of tissue mast cells was evaluated in genetically anemic mice of W/Wv genotype and was found to be abnormal. In the skin of adult W/Wv mice the number of mast cells/cm was less than 1% of the number observed in the congeneic +/+ mice. No mast cells were detectable in other tissues of the W/Wv mice. After transplantation of bone marrow cells from +/+ mice the number of mast cells in the skin, stomach, caecum, and mesentery of the W/Wv mice increased to levels similar to those of the +/+ mice. These results show that the W/Wv mouse is a useful tool for the investigations concerning the physiologic roles and the origin of mast cells.

“They also showed that mast cells developed in WBB6F1-W/Wv mice that had been engrafted with bone marrow cells from the WT (wild type) littermate WBB6F1-+/+ mice [56].”

“However, the recipient W/Wv mice also were cured of their anemia [56], as was initially shown by Elizabeth Russell [57].”

In the citing paper
“Yukihiko Kitamura and colleagues discovered that (WB/Re-W/+ X C57BL/6-Wv/+)F1-”W/Wv” mice (now known as WBB6F1-KitW/KitW-v mice, since “W” later was shown to encode c-kit [54, 55]) not only had a moderate macrocytic anemia, a phenotype which had been reported decades earlier, but were profoundly deficient in tissue mast cells [56].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
