Flow cytometric analysis of subpopulations of hematopoietic and endothelial progenitor cells in bone marrow of chimeric mice. A: Representative results showing green fluorescent protein (GFP)+ precursor cells in both the Saline 30 d and CCl₄ 30 d groups (side bar = ancestry gating). CD45+/CD34+ (hematopoietic) and CD45+/CD133+ (endothelial) cells were identified; B: Representative results showing GFP-subpopulation precursor cells in the Saline 30 d and CCl₄ 30 d groups (side bar = ancestry gating). No progenitor cells were found in the GFP-subpopulation; C: Graphic of the percentage of GFP+/CD45+/CD34+ cells (hematopoietic progenitor cells); D: GFP+/CD45+/CD133+ (endothelial progenitor cells) in peripheral blood of the Saline 30 d and CCl₄ 30 d groups. No significant difference was detected between the groups by Student’s t test.
