Colony-forming cells have been found in the peripheral blood of man and have been grown in vitro by use of a soft agar gel technique. It has been possible to collect these cells with a blood-cell separator in numbers similar to those found in the peripheral circulation. Repeat leukapheresis of the same donor does not reduce the number of circulating colony-forming cells.
在人类外周血中已发现集落形成细胞,并利用软琼脂凝胶技术在体外使其生长。使用血细胞分离机能够收集到数量与外周循环中相似的这些细胞。对同一供体重复进行白细胞单采术并不会减少循环集落形成细胞的数量。
