Abstract
The infection of newborn mice with a mouse erythroblastotic virus increases the number of hematopoietic stem cells in the spleen. Upon retransplantation of these stem cells into intermediate recipient mice certain growth parameters (doubling time, self renewal and extinction probability, etc.) which are abnormal when measured by techniques which avoid the intermediate recipient step, appear to be reverted toward normal values. The βnormalizationβ of the stem cells is explained by the change in the environment supporting CFU growth during transplantation.

The past year has brought forth some exciting developments in the use of murine xenotransplantation systems to study the biology and transduction of human hematopoietic stem cells. The effects of cytokines have been studied by injection into the mice or by treatment of the cell inoculum prior to inj
