Values represent the mean percentage ± 1 SEM in total cells of bone marrow, thymus, spleen, blood, and lymph nodes or in total lymphocytes of peritoneal cavity. Numbers in parentheses correspond to the number of mice.

*

 The percentage of pre-B cells in bone marrow was determined for each individual mouse by subtracting the percentage of B220loCD43+ (pro-B) cells from the percentage of B220loIgM (pro-B + pre-B) cells.
