FACS indicates fluorescence-activated cell sorter.
Real-time quantitative PCR was carried out for human microsatellite DNA (Supplemental Methods) on BM samples at various periods after transplantation. PCR data for PB samples at the matching time points were all negative. Analyses were repeated at least once to confirm data reported. Minimal detection limit = 0.0001%
Flow cytometry analyses for human CD34 or CD45 was carried out at various periods after transplantation. Twenty thousand to 50 000 events were acquired for a single analysis per animal at the noted time point
Animal no. 1757 was analyzed by PCR for human GAPDH (Figure S1)
