The total cell output from an initial input of 5,000 cells per fraction ± SEM of three replicates at the end of each experiment is indicated, confirming that the α₆^bri10G7^dim population has the greatest long-term proliferative capacity. 

^*The total cell output of the α₆^bri10G7^dim fraction was significantly higher than the α₆^bri10G7^bri fraction and UF cells (P < 0.05). 

^†Output from a single well.
