Limiting dilution assays of adult BM and umbilical CB. (A) Southern blot analysis of human cell engraftment in the BM of mice transplanted with 1 to 8 × 106 BM cells. Mice were treated with alternate-day injections of human cytokines and killed 6 weeks posttransplant. Human:mouse DNA controls are given as percent human DNA.
