A) No statistically significant differences were found in the number of cells surviving, for MASCs between the wildtype mice (mean=1602) and weaver mice (wv/+, wv/wv) (mean=2857), or for ESNPs between wildtype mice (mean=3794) and weaver mice (wv/+, wv/wv) (mean=2722), nor between the two donor populations.
B) The migration distance of the transplanted cells also showed no statistically significant differences between the experimental conditions or between the donor populations. For MASCs, an average migration distance of 472um was found in wildtype mice, and an average of 800um was found in weaver mice. For ESNPs, an average of 733um was found in wt animals versus an average of 651um in weaver mice.
