Untreated mice received no treatment at all. TBI-only mice received 5 Gy TBI but no LN cells. BM cells in all experiments and RBCs and WBCs in experiments 1 and 3 were counted on a Z2 Coulter Counter. CBCs were performed in experiments 4 using a Hemavet analyzer. Data presented are means ± standard error.
