Schematic representation of donor irradiation and harvest delay schedule.
BALB/c male donors were irradiated (1 Gy) 0, 6, 12, and 24 weeks prior to bone marrow harvest and intravenous infusion of 40 × 106 bone marrow cells into female BALB/c recipients treated with 1 Gy WBI. Percent engraftment was measured 8 weeks after transplantation by FISH for Y chromosomes.
