Figure 2: Mean number of peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM)- derived mononuclear cells at 3 time points following LAD instrumentation (baseline, 45days, 90days). Fresh peripheral blood and BM mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated by Ficoll Histopaque density-gradient centrifugation. There were no differences in the total peripheral or BM MNCs isolated for each time point observed (P=NS). |
