    Bone resorption restored in osteopetrotic mice by transplants of normal bone marrow and spleen cells.

    Abstract

    Capacity to resorb bone and calcified cartilage was restored permanently in mice with inherited osteopetrosis by the intravenous administration of cell suspensions prepared from spleen and bone marrow of normal littermates. Beginning near active growth plates as early as 2 weeks after transplantation, replacement of the abnormal spongiosa continued until medullary cavitites were fully expanded.
