Immature megakaryocyte colony-forming cells from cord blood are more radiosensitive than mature ones, and specific cytokine combinations alter their radiation survival curves.

Does not support cytokine use in radiation protocols; leaves open progenitor radiosensitivity effects in human thrombopoiesis.
Kashiwakura et al. (2000) studied this question.
