The process in which transplanted bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells begin to grow in the bone marrow of the host and to manufacture new white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets
The process of infused donor stem cells homing to the marrow of a recipient and producing blood cells of all types Engraftment is first evident when new white cells, red cells and platelets begin to appear in the recipient's blood following stem cell transplantation
The process by which newly transplanted stem cells migrate to and nest in the appropriate site of the recipients body and start producing normal quantities of normal mature cells
The process by which transplanted or transfused cells (for example, after a bone marrow transplant) begin to grow and reproduce themselves within the recipient
