Table 1.
Conditioning | NOD mice | % chimeric recipients |
---|---|---|
Anti-CD3 | Prediabetic | 100 (8/8) |
Diabetic | 25 (4/16) | |
Anti-CD3/anti-CD8 | Prediabetic | 100 (8/8) |
Diabetic | 96 (30/31) |
The percentage of donor-type cells among blood mononuclear cells from the chimeric recipients 8 weeks after HCT was usually >30%, and donor-type cells were not detectable in nonchimeric recipients.
