Freshly isolated or cultured (SFT3 for 5 days) CD34+ CB cells were sorted into CD34+ Fas+ and CD34+ Fas subpopulations and investigated for cell cycle distribution following staining with 7-AAD and anti-Ki-67 (“Materials and methods”). Results are from 3 separate experiments for freshly isolated and cultured cells; mean values (SEM).
