Table 3. Ex vivo expansion of CB CD34⁺ cells over 14 days.

	HIF1α/KD	CTRL
Total cells	82.09±7.16	80.27±9.03
CD34+ cells	21.91±4.52*	30.02±3.99
CD34+CD38− cells	15.65±4.12*	24.83±4.03
CD34+CD38+ cells	92.33±11.30	91.98±8.31

The effect of ex vivo expansion of HIF1α/KD cells on CB CD34⁺ cells was assayed according to the methods described above.
