Abstract

Deterioration of the thymus gland during aging is accompanied by a reduction in plasma GH. Here we report gross and microscopic results from 24-month-old Wistar-Furth rats treated with rat GH derived from syngeneic GH3 cells or with recombinant human GH. Histological evaluation of aged rats treated with either rat or human GH displayed clear morphologic evidence of thymic regeneration, reconstitution of hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow, and multiorgan extramedullary hematopoiesis. Quantitative evaluation of formalin-fixed, hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections of bone marrow from aged rats revealed at least a 50% reduction in the number hematopoietic bone marrow cells, compared with that of young 3-month-old rats. This age-associated decline in bone marrow leukocytes, as well as the increase in bone marrow adipocytes, was significantly reversed by in vivo treatment with GH. Restoration of bone marrow cellularity was caused primarily by erythrocytic and granulocytic cells, but all cell lineages were represented and their proportions were similar to those in aged control rats. On a per-cell basis, GH treatment in vivo significantly increased the number of in vitro myeloid colony forming units in both bone marrow and spleen. Morphological evidence of enhanced extramedullary hematopoiesis was observed in the spleen, liver, and adrenal glands from animals treated with GH. These results confirm that GH prevents thymic aging. Furthermore, these data significantly extend earli…

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.
