Production of Colony-Stimulating Factor in Mitogen-Stimulated Lymphocyte Cultures

Parker, John W, Metcalf, Donald·1974·The Journal of Immunology

Abstract

The addition of phytohemagglutinin, pokeweed mitogen, concanavalin A or bacterial lipopolysaccharide to mouse spleen cultures strongly stimulated production of colony-stimulating factor (CSF), the humoral regulator of granulopoiesis and macrophage formation. Column-filtered spleen cells depleted of macrophages exhibited similar responses. Cultures of macrophage monolayers failed to produce elevated levels of CSF when stimulated by PHA or PWM. The results suggest that activated T- and B-lymphocytes can both produce significant amounts of CSF, providing a possible mechanism for stimulating macrophage formation in chronic immunologic or inflammatory responses.

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.
