Abstract excerpt
To better characterize acute myeloid leukemia (AML) development in non-obese diabetic (NOD)/severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice, we transplanted samples from patients with AML or KG-1 and EOL-1 cell lines. We found 9/12 primary AML samples and both cell lines to engraft within 2-8 weeks, with 5-80% human cells in bone marrow. Compared with freshly isolated AML cells, percentages of human CD33+, CD38+,...
