Approximately 1 to 2 × 105 fluorescently labeled, AA4.1+ FL cells were transplanted into lethally irradiated adult recipients. At 5, 16, or 48 hours posttransplantation, recipient bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and liver were examined for the number of fluorescently tagged cells. Results are depicted as the mean number (±SD) of fluorescent cells per 107 cells counted.
