Designated numbers of muscle-derived nucleated cells or lineage-negative (Lin) BM cells17 of chimeric mice were transplanted into lethally irradiated secondary Ly-5.2 recipient mice along with radioprotective cells. At 6 months later, PB was collected from the secondary recipients, and the levels of engraftment were analyzed by flow cytometry. Nucleated PB cells were stained with anti-Ly-5.1 and either anti-Gr-1 and anti-Mac-1, anti-Thy-1.2, or anti-B220.

BM indicates bone marrow; PB, peripheral blood; G/M, granulocytes and/or monocytes; T, T lymphocytes; B, B lymphocytes; ND, not determined.

The experimental mice correspond to experiments 5 and 6 in Table 3.

F4-151

The percentages of cells within each lineage that expressed Ly-5.1.

The cells were prepared as described previously.17
