Abstract excerpt
A three-dimensional culture system for the growth of primate and rodent bone marrow was developed in our laboratory. This method involves the seeding of stromal cells onto a nylon screen and the inoculation of fresh or cryopreserved bone marrow hematopoietic cells after stromal cell processes had extended across 3 to 4 out of every 5 mesh openings. Stromal cells attach, grow, and secrete matrix proteins which...
