Evaluation of Platelet Number and Spleen MK Count in Control Mice and Transgenic Mice During and After GCV Treatment

Mean Decrease in Platelet Count (%) Mean No. of MK Per Spleen Section
Control mice treated with GCV  Unchanged 20 ± 6  
Transgenic mice last stage of GCV treatment  93% 1 ± 1  
48 h to 6 d into recovery  78%  2 ± 1 
15 to 20 d into recovery  40%  16 ± 1 
Mean Decrease in Platelet Count (%) Mean No. of MK Per Spleen Section
Control mice treated with GCV  Unchanged 20 ± 6  
Transgenic mice last stage of GCV treatment  93% 1 ± 1  
48 h to 6 d into recovery  78%  2 ± 1 
15 to 20 d into recovery  40%  16 ± 1 

Each group was composed of 2 mice; the mean number of MK was evaluated on a minimum of 6 sections per spleen.
