Figure 3. Thrombocytosis in CALRdel/+ mice is transplantable. (A) Plasma THPO level is not significantly altered in CALRdel/+ mice. (B) Donor chimerism is comparable in the primary noncompetitive BM transplants. BM cells from CALRdel/+ or control mice (2 × 106 per recipient) were transplanted into irradiated (2 × 550 cGy) CD45.1 C57BL/6 recipients. Donor chimerism in peripheral blood was analyzed by using flow cytometry with CD45.1 and CD45.2 antibodies and was derived as a percentage of CD45.2+ cells in whole nucleated blood. (C) Time course of blood counts showing significantly increased platelet counts in the recipients of CALRdel/+ BM. (D) Time course of blood counts showing significantly increased platelet counts in the secondary transplant recipients of CALRdel/+ BM. BM cells from the primary recipients of CALRdel/+ or control BM (5 × 106 cells per recipient) were transplanted into irradiated (1 × 400 cGy) KitW41/W41 (CD45.1) recipients. (E) Donor chimerism was comparable in the secondary noncompetitive BM transplants. Donor chimerism in peripheral blood was analyzed by using flow cytometry as above. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. *P < .05; ***P < .001.
