Article Description

A detailed analysis of the cell recruitment and of the cell generation pattern of normal lymphocytes and chronic lymphatic leukaemia (CLL) lymphocytes, simulated by phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), was performed by the bromodi‐oxyuridine (BUdR) Hoechst technique. It was found that in normal cultures the majority of cells divide two or three times, producing an early peak of DNA synthesis, while only a few cells grow exponentially and pass through many rounds of replication. On the contrary, the majority of CLL responsive cells grow exponentially, producing a delayed peak of DNA synthesis, while cells which divide only two or three times are scarce or absent. No difference in the minimal cell cycle length of the normal and the CLL exponentially growing population was found. In addition, a cell population recruited into cycle for the first time 5–6 days following PHA stimulation was observed in normal cultures but not in CLL cultures. Copyright © 1981, Wiley Blackwell.
