Cell layers of each line were established in 24-well plates. Five hundred human CB CD34+ cells per well were planted on the stromal cell layers and cultured for 6 weeks. Clonogenic progenitors generated in the culture at each time point were evaluated by culturing a fraction of the cells harvested. The colonies were counted at day 14. The number of colonies indicates the mean ± SD of triplicate cultures.
