The authors aim to discover osteogenic precursor cells in chinchilla rabbits appearing in the medullary cavity after removal of bone marrow. For this purpose the authors modified a model of medullary curettage. Pieces of tissue for electron-microscope autoradiography were incubated in medium with /sup 3/H-thymidine. To discover the proliferative properties of cells of the regenerating bone marrow tissue, an electron-microscopic autoradiographic investigation was carried out. It was found that DNA synthesis took place mainly in undifferentiated cells, endothelial cells, and differentiated cells.
