Comparison of human hematopoietic cell engraftment in NSG versus NOD/SCID mice. Nonmanipulated umbilical cord blood CD34+ cells (1 × 104–5 × 104 per mouse) were transplanted into sublethally irradiated (300 cGy) NSG or NOD/SCID mice and human cell engraftment in the bone marrow (% human CD45+ cells) analyzed 8 weeks later by flow cytometry. Multi-lineage engraftment was similar in both strains (data not shown). mice per cohort; *NS2 versus NOD/SCID, .
