CD34c-kit−/lowCD15+ cells grown by SCF + TPO at 3 weeks were sorted by flow cytometry, and replated at 2,000 cells per well containing SCF + TPO, SCF + G-CSF, or SCF + GM-CSF, as described in Materials and Methods. The cells were serially harvested, and processed for staining with May-Grünwald Giemsa, ALP, or a MoAb for CD35. The results shown are from one representative experiment of three. Similar results were obtained in the other two experiments.

Abbreviations: MB, myeloblasts; PMC, promyelocytes; MC, myelocytes; MMC, metamyelocytes; BC, band cells; Segm, segmented cells; ALP, alkaline phosphatase.
