peripheral blood progenitor cells

peripheral blood progenitor cells
(PBPC), peripheral blood stem cells stem cells found in the peripheral blood rather than the bone marrow; their numbers can be artificially increased by exposure to hematopoietic growth factors so that they can be extracted before myeloablative chemotherapy and later infused as an autologous bone marrow transplantation.
