A, Detection of host male cells in human female hearts transplanted in male recipients. B, Number of BMPCs present in the recipient infarcted mouse myocardium 48 hours after BMPC injection. C, The fraction of CD45-positive BMPCs decreases from 12 to 48 hours following cell implantation. Results are mean±SD. *P<0.05 vs. 12 h; **P<0.05 vs. 24–36 h. Adapted from reference 88.
