SHIP–/– WBM and purified HSCs have compromised reconstituting activity. (A) CRU activity calculated based on the percentage of global repopulation in the PB by donor WBM cells (SHIP–/– [▪] and WT [▦]). (B) Percentage of global repopulation of PB by SHIP–/– (▪) and WT (▦) donor in a CRU assay. (C) Percentage of lymphoid and myeloid PB cells derived from SHIP–/– (▪) or WT (▦) WBM 16 weeks after transplantation in a CRU assay. (D) FACS plots show the level of PB reconstitution 16 weeks after KTLS transplantation in a representative DC assay mouse using sorted SHIP–/– and WT KTLS cells. (E) Percentage of global reconstitution 16 weeks after transplantation of sorted KTLS (SHIP–/– [▪] and WT [▦]) (n = 11 over 2 different experiments). (F) Proportion of lymphoid and myeloid PB cells derived from SHIP–/– (▪) or WT (▦) WBM 16 weeks after KTLS transplantation. (G) Percentage of global reconstitution 12 weeks after sorted KFLS transplantation (SHIP–/– [▪] and WT [▦]) (n = 7). Significance was established using the unpaired student t test (Prism 4): **P < .001; *P < .01; ++P < .005; and +P < .05 (mean ± SEM).
