Cells were individually deposited per well in 96-well plates containing serum-free media with designated cytokines. Incubations were performed for 14 days at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2/95% air. Each well was scored positive for proliferation when ≥5 cells were identified. Data represent the number of positive wells/total number of wells seeded.
Abbreviations: MC, mast cells; Other, includes erythrocytes, myeloid cells, lymphocytes, and megakaryocytes.
