“When PCTs (plasma cell tumors) became more available, many workers attempted to establish them in tissue culture. The story was always the same: ‘We have put the PCT cells in culture ... will call you back next week to report the progress’—but the calls never came because the cells failed to sustain their initial growth and died.”
