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 |
