FACS-based analysis of surface immunostaining was used to determine the average percentage of cells expressing a specified surface marker in each cell population analyzed.

*

Enzyme digestion diminishes the intensity of c-kit immunostaining as detailed in “CD45+ SP tip cells possess phenotypic characteristics distinct from bone marrow HSCs.”

Lin indicates CD3, B220, CD11b, GR-1, and Ter-119.
