KGF pretreatment improves reconstitution of peripheral T-lymphocyte populations.

(A) The mean absolute number of donor-derived and host-derived mature T lymphocytes in the spleens of allogeneic BMT recipients (n = 4-5 in each group) conditioned with 900 cGy radiation determined over 3 months after BMT. P values of comparisons of donor-derived CD4 and CD8 cells are shown above bars: *P < .02; NS, P > .05. (B) The mean absolute cell number of donor-derived and host-derived T lymphocytes in the lymph node of allogeneic BMT recipients conditioned with 900 cGy radiation determined over 3 months after BMT (n = 4-5 in each group).P values of comparisons of donor-derived CD4 and CD8 cells are shown above bars: *P < .04; NS,P > .05.
