Figure 1. FX−/− mice develop a myeloproliferative disorder. (A) FACS analysis of the percentage of granulocytes (Gr-1+), B lymphocytes (B220+), and erythrocytes (TER119+) in the bone marrow in 3- to 4-month-old control mice (WT; n = 8), FX−/− mice reared on fucose-supplemented chow until 12 weeks of age, and then on standard chow for at least 4 weeks (n = 8; FX−/−, no fucose), and FX−/− mice reared on fucose-supplemented chow until use (n = 8; FX−/−, with fucose). (B) May-Grünwald-Giemsa–stained cytospins of marrow cells showing increased segmented neutrophils () and myeloid progenitor cells () in the bone marrow of FX−/− mice (no fucose). (C) Differential blood counts on May-Grünwald-Giemsa–stained cytospins of marrow cells showing percentage of myeloid progenitor cells at various developmental stage and mature neutrophils (WT, n = 8; FX−/−, no fucose, n = 9; FX−/−, with fucose, n = 9). (D,E) FACS analysis of bone marrow myeloid progenitors (CMP: Lin−c-kit+Sca-1−IL7R−CD34+FcγRIIlow; GMP: Lin−c-kit+Sca-1−IL7R−CD34+FcγRII+; MEP: Lin−c-kit+Sca-1−IL7R−CD34lowFcγRIIlow). (F) FACS analysis of CLP compartment (Lin−c-kitlowSca-1lowIL7R+). Bar graphs represent the average total number of CLP cells (± SD) from 2 tibias and 2 femurs of each mouse.
