hematopoietic system
• decrease in the colony forming ability of bone marrow cells when culture on complete methylcellulose-based medium, with a decrease in the number of BFU-E, CFU-G, and CFU-GEMM colonies
|
• bone marrow or megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors cultures on methylcellulose-based medium with erythropoietin produce fewer and smaller colonies
|
• decrease in erythrocyte numbers is more severe following phenylhydrazine treatment and noncompetitive transplantation
|
• in the bone marrow
|
• decrease in the percentages of most hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, including LT-HSCs, ST-HSCs, MPP2, MPP3/4, CMPs, MEPs, and MKPs, in the bone marrow
• decrease in the percentages of preMegE, PreCFU-E, and CFU-E/proerythroblast in the bone marrow
• minimal affect on CLPs and GMPs
|
• decrease in the percentage of terminally differentiated erythrocytes in the bone marrow
• decrease in number of red brood cells and Retic-Es
• however, no effects on white blood cell counts
|
• decrease in percentages of long term (LT) and short term (ST) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow
• mild effect on HSCs in the fetal liver and spleen
|
• in the bone marrow
|
• in a competitive transplantation assay bone marrow cells have a lower reconstitution capacity compared to cells from wild-type controls
