Mice were given various mAb treatments or NRS 2 days before irradiation. Irradiated mice (4 mice/group) received 1 × 106 allogeneic BMC. Eight days later a soft-agar colony assay was grown to assess hematopoietic progenitor content.

*

Values significantly greater (P < .003) than in mice receiving NRS and mAb 4D11.

Values significantly greater (P < .005) than in mice receiving mAb 4D11 or YE1-48 in experiment B.
