Growth, viability and differentiation of cells from CD34+ HSCs in vitro prior exposure to malaria antigens. CD34+Lin− cells were isolated using a CD34 isolation kit and cultured in StemlinII™ medium supplemented with suitable growth factors for 10 days. The differentiated leukocytes derived from HSCs were characterized by flow cytometry. The data shown in bar graphs represent cell growth (a), and viability (b) over 10 days (Mean ± SD), with the data being obtained from ten individual cord blood samples. The pie charts show the cell population found on day 10 of HSC cultures using flow cytometry characterizations (c), and the relative number of cells in the three groups; mononuclear cell, polymorphonuclear cell and haematopoietic stem cell (d) (% of total cells). The data are mean values obtained from ten individual cord blood samples
