NA indicates not applicable due to absence of human CFU; ND, not done.

A cell-dose–limiting dilution of transduced CD34+ cells (MOI = 200) transplanted into NOD/SCID recipients shows successful lentiviral vector gene transfer into both primary and secondary SRC. Bone marrow from high-cell-dose primary transplant recipients (groups V and VI) were transplanted into secondary recipients with one donor for one recipient mouse for group VI donors and one donor for three recipient mice for group V donors. FACS analysis for engraftment (CD45) and GFP expression was performed along with colony analysis for GFP expression by microscopy. Multilineage engraftment was seen as defined by the presence of CFU-GM and a minimum of 5 human lymphoid cells (CD19) and 5 human myeloid cells (CD15 or CD33) per 20 000 mouse bone marrow mononuclear cells.
