In vitro Appearance of Large Human Histamine-Containing Basophilic Cells
Abstract
The appearance of large human basophilic cells containing histamine was followed to reflect cell maturation in cultures of peripheral blood leukocytes. Aliquots were taken on day 0 and after 7, 9-10 and 14 days in culture, and the basophilic cell numbers were determined in 200 microliter cytospin specimens stained with Wright's stain. The number of small basophils initially present declined during the culture period. The number of spontaneously …
