Evaluation of Erythroid and Nonerythroid Progenitors in Spleens From Normal and Fas-Deficient C57BL/6-lpr/lpr Mice

CFU-GM CFU-Mix Per Spleen (×100) BFU-E
C57BL/6-lpr/lpr 1,017.1 ± 325.0 109.3 ± 54.1  108.6 ± 38.9 
  P < .001  
C57BL/6  29.6 ± 5.9 2.8 ± 1.9  3.0 ± 1.5 
CFU-GM CFU-Mix Per Spleen (×100) BFU-E
C57BL/6-lpr/lpr 1,017.1 ± 325.0 109.3 ± 54.1  108.6 ± 38.9 
  P < .001  
C57BL/6  29.6 ± 5.9 2.8 ± 1.9  3.0 ± 1.5 

Total CFU-C were quantified in spleens from 6-month-old mice using MethoCult M3434 medium. Colonies were scored on day 7 to 8 and analyzed for the presence of erythroid cells. Data represent means ± SEM from 3 separate experiments.
