Question 2

Correct Answer:

Verified

The presence of chimerisms indicates complete infusion of donor HSCs into the recipient. The method of detection is through variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphisms, which separate out donor DNA/RNA from recipient DNA/RNA. Complete chimerisms exist if there is only donor DNA/RNA present. A complete chimerism indicates a successful stem cell transplant.
