Effect of 5 days or 5 weeks of exercise on a treadmill on the number of HSPCs in PB and BM. (a) The number of HSPCs circulating in PB (left panel) and BM (right panel) after 5 days or 5 weeks of exercise on a treadmill (effort) compared with nonexercising mice (control). (b) The increase in the number of clonogenic progenitors (CFU-GM, left panel, and BFU-E, right panel) in BM after 5 days or 5 weeks of exercise on a treadmill (effort) compared with nonexercising mice (control) ( mice/group).
