Engraftment of normal male bone marrow cells into hosts irradiated 12 months earlier (1 Gy).
Female BALB/c recipient mice were given 0 or 1 Gy WBI prior to immediate or 12-month delayed infusion of 40 × 106 male bone marrow cells intravenously. Engraftment was evaluated by FISH at 8 weeks after transplantation. Significant differences were observed between time 0 and 12 months for 1 Gy groups and with age-matched controls within each time group. Mean ± SE is shown.
