Data represent mean values of triplicate experiments ± SD.

*

When compared with control group, the statistical difference withP value < .02 was observed.

G-CSF indicates granulocyte colony-stimulating factor; CFU-HPP, high proliferative potential colony forming cell; CFU-GM, granulocyte macrophage colony-forming unit.
