Thymus cell number 1 month after bone marrow transplant with cytotoxically defective allogeneic T cells
| BM Transplant | Cells/thymus* |
|---|---|
| C3H.SW → C3H.SW | 22.0 × 106–35.8 × 106 |
| B6 → C3H.SW | 0.0 × 106–2.6 × 106 |
| B6-perforin 0/0 → C3H.SW | 0.0 × 106–8.1 × 106 |
| B6-gld → C3H.SW | 15.4 × 106–28.8 × 106 |
*
Total numbers of thymocytes recovered from recipient thymi at 33–39 days after transplantation of MHC-matched allogeneic bone marrow and 2.5 × 106 cytotoxically defective donor T cells. Recovery numbers are expressed as number of thymus cells per mouse.
