Couple questions:

- you're using bone marrow stem cells and using the same confusing acronym as mesenchymal stem cells. As someone who has been out of active research for several years, what is the difference? And are there other acronyms that are accepted?

- BM stem cells through bone marrow harvest used to be the order of the day for repopulating immune systems following irradiation of marrow for some leukemias. Nowadays the state of the art is that those stem cells can be harvested by fractioning whole blood, so you only have the hassle of a blood donation, rather than the serious and not to be sneezed at act of penetrating cortex to harvest marrow. Is there any reason you can't get this from whole blood?

Thanks
