Effects of salubrinal on colony-forming unit- granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM). Approximately 2.5x10⁴ bone marrow-derived cells were prepared and seeded onto a 35-mm gridded dish supplemented with 30 ng/ml murine M-CSF and 20 ng/ml RANKL. Three dosages of salubrinal (1, 2, and 5 μM) were administered, and cells were cultured for 7 days. A: Salubrinal-induced reduction in CFU-GM numbers in the RANKL-injected mice using three dosage of salubrinal. The images exhibit the 4 different CFU-GM cultures, in which the circles indicate the colonies. B: Comparison of CFU-GM numbers in the vehicle control and RANKL-injected mice with and without in vitro administration of salubrinal. The representative microphotographs are shown, displaying 4 CFU-GM cultures with colonies in circle. Bar = 500 μm.
