Effect of prednisolone on the growth of human bone marrow cells in vitro.

The addition of prednisolone to autostimulatory cultures of human bone marrow in agar results in the formation of an increased number of granulocytic aggregates. The effect is dependent on the concentration of cultured cells and does not occur at low cell concentration. The increase in aggregate num...
