The presence of LTC-IC was determined weekly by the quantification of GM-CFC–derived colonies as described in the text. Values shown represent GM-CFC colonies/105 cells plated. Each number (± SD) is the mean of 3 wells in 2 separate experiments, using 2 independent chimeric animals. (−) Cultures performed without ganciclovir. (+) Cultures performed in the presence of ganciclovir.
