CD34+ fetal liver cells were obtained by FACS sorting (CD34+CD38−, 99% pure, experiment 1), labeled with CFSE and injected intrathymically (it) into RAG2−/−γc−/− transplanted with a human fetal thymus liver graft. The expression of cell surface antigens was determined in the thymus graft 6 weeks after injection using PE-labeled antibodies CD4, CD123, CD1a, and the TC-labeled antibodies CD8, CD34, and CD45RA. Isotype control antibodies were used to set the cursors. Electronic gates were placed on CFSE+ and CFSE− cells, and the percentages of different subpopulations were determined in each gate and are indicated in the table.
