The optimal time interval between termination of radiation therapy and marrow grafting has been studied in an animal model of syngeneic bone marrow transplantation, using a limiting number of bone marrow cells. Optimal survival was achieved when reconstitution took place 24 h following termination of radiation therapy at all cell doses studied, including 5 x 10(4), 2 x 10(5) and 1 x 10(6) cells/recipient. The worst results were observed when bone marrow cells were infused immediately after irradiation. These results suggest that reconstitution of lethally irradiated recipients requires migration of irradiated host marrow cells and establishment of adequate 'bone marrow space', which is optimal at 24 h following termination of whole body irradiation.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.
