Number of mast cells in various tissues at 10 weeks after bone marrow transplantation


Tissue examined

B6-+/+ to WBB6F1-W/Wv
Peritoneal cavity   49 ± 5  
Mesentery   7.1 ± 0.4  
Stomach   412 ± 31  
Spleen   2.3 ± 0.9  
Skin
 
119 ± 10

Values represent the number of mast cells in each combination of donors and recipients. Results are mean ± SE of 5 mice and are given as the number per 103 peritoneal cells, number per mm2 mesentery and spleen, and number per cm stomach and skin. The number of mast cells in each combination of donors and recipients was less than 0.1 for B6-tg/tg to WBB6F1-W/Wv mice. P < .01 by t test when compared with the values observed in WBB6F1-W/Wv mice transplanted from B6-+/+ donors. WBB6F1-W/Wv mice were irradiated with 2 Gy before transplantation.
