Abstract excerpt
We have established a human IL-5 (hIL-5) dependent cell line, JYTF-1, derived from TF-1 parental human erythroleukemic cells by long-term cultivation in the presence of hIL-5. The ED50 values of hIL-5 for both TF-1 and JYTF-1 cell lines remained similar. However, when cells were grown in an optimal concentration of IL-5, some TF-1 cells but not JYTF-1 cells died via apoptosis. Although the rates of DNA synthesis...
