Paf is necessary for proper HSC and progenitor development. (A) FACS of thymocytes from Paf+/+ and Paf−/− mice stained for intracellular PAF. (B) Total number of cells in BM, thymuses, and spleens of Paf+/+ and Paf−/− mice. (C) Representative staining profiles for BM HSC and progenitor populations. (D and E) Absolute cell numbers in the BM of 8-wk-old (D) or 6-mo-old (E) Paf+/+ and Paf−/− mice. (F) Representative staining profiles and absolute number of CLPs in the BM of 8-wk- and 6-mo-old mice. Plots are gated for LinSca-1lowc-kitlow cells as defined in (C). (G) Representative staining profiles and absolute cell numbers of ETPs in the thymus of 8-wk-old mice. (H) Representative staining profiles for myeloerythroid progenitors. LSK cells (defined in C) were subdivided into CMPs, GMPs, and MEPs as indicated. (I and J). Absolute cell numbers of LSKs, CMPs, GMPs, and MEPs in the BM of 8-wk-old (I) or 6-mo-old (J) mice. Each symbol represents a mouse combined from 3–6 experiments. Horizontal bars indicate the mean. Numbers in parentheses are the fold change of cell numbers for Paf−/− relative to Paf+/+ mice. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001.
