Stumptailed monkeys (Macaca arctoides) received a lethal nitrogen mustard injection. Autologous bone marrow reinjection resulted in survival of the majority of animals. Treatment with an anabolic steroid accelerated erythropoietic and leukopoietic recovery. This appears to be related to increased erythropoietin production and increased number of colony forming units in the bone marrow.
