Radiation dose as a factor in host preparation for bone marrow transplantation across different genetic barriers

  • 1. Rijksuniversiteit Groningen (Netherlands)

Description

Engraftment of donor bone marrow in relation to total body irradiation (TBI) dose was studied in syngeneic (B6→B6), MHC-compatible (BALB.B→B6) and MHC-incompatible allogeneic (BALB/c→B6) murine bone marrow transplantation (BMT) models. The steep dose-response relationships show how engraftment is critically dependent on TBI dose, as well as the genetic disparity between donor and host. (author)
