Thy-1.1lowSca-1+Lin cells were stained and separated based on levels of Rh-123 and BodVer staining in the absence or presence of the indicated P-gp blockers. In each case, the brightest 15% (Rh-123low and BodVerlow) of total cells were sorted, and cell cycle analysis was performed for each cell population. Each number represents the percentage of cells in the S/G2/M regions of the DNA histogram (mean ± SD) as determined in three or four separate sorting experiments except as noted.
