RBC indicate red blood cell; for other abbreviations, see Table 2.

F3-150

Age in weeks.

F3-151

The percentage of mice with thromboses needs clarification in a larger cohort of animals. This does not detract from the conclusions that the 11 mice with donor cells present at necropsy do not have thrombi.

F3-152

Each mouse was injected with approximately 5 × 1013 +a/+a total PB cells.
