Abstract excerpt
The regulatory roles of a number of early-acting growth factors on the generation of natural killer (NK) cells and B cells from primitive progenitors were studied. Experiments focused on the contributions of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulates factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) to the regulation of the early events of lymphopoiesis.Two progenitor populations isolated from human fetal liver were...
