The in vitro cellular synthesis of hemoglobin components in various media and its relevance to the concept of stenogenic and eurygenic states of differentiation.
The increase above normal in the rate of synthesis of human fetal hemoglobin in incubated cells from adults, as observed previously, is only relative. The addition of serum to the incubation medium tends to reestablish the normal ratio of rates. In the absence of serum the decrease in rates of synthesis affects most strongly the hemoglobin component, whichever it be, that is synthesized more intensively at the cell stage under consideration. This is brought out by the comparison of the effects of different media on fetal and adult cells. The data lead to the definition of the concept of stenogenic and eurygenic states of differentiation.
