ABSTRACT:
A composition and a method for supporting bone marrow transplantation are disclosed. The composition comprises a therapeutically acceptable amount of human B cell differentiation factor, or its biological equivalent, optionally in combination with an auxiliary agent selected from IL-1, IL-3, IL-4, IL-5, G-CSF, GM-CSF, and M-CSF. The composition also promotes the proliferation of hematopoietic cells in vitro.
