Hematopoiesis support potential of HD and MM ASCs compared with autologous MSCs. CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells were cocultured with HD/MM ASCs or MSCs. At days 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35, nonadherent hematopoietic cells were counted (a) and tested for hematopoietic progenitor content (b) burst forming unit (BFU)-erythroid (BFU-E), (c) colony forming unit (CFU)-granulocytes (CFU-G), (d) CFU-monocytes (CFU-M), (e) CFU-granulocyte macrophages (CFU-GM), and (f) mixed CFU. Data are the number of CFU (independent experiments).
