What is human myeloid progenitor cells CLT-008?

Pronunciation: /ˈjumən myeloid* proʊˈʤɛnɪtər sɛlz clt* eɪt/

human myeloid progenitor cells CLT-008

Definition

Early- to late-stage myeloid progenitor cells derived from adult human stem cells with potential hematopoietic activity. Upon infusion, human myeloid progenitor cells CLT-008 proliferate into mature myeloid cells, including granulocytes, macrophages, platelets, and erythrocytes. These myeloid progenitor cells die within forty-five days after a burst of hematopoiesis. This agent cannot create lymphoid cells, including T cells associated with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
