Abstract Background and Purpose Currently there are no widely accepted guidelines for
chimerism analysis testing in hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) patients. The …

Abstract Analysis of chimerism after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is
important for assessing engraftment and the early detection of graft failure. In addition, the …

A major end point of nonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the
attainment of either mixed chimerism or full donor hematopoiesis. Because the majority of …

Quantitative chimerism analysis is a diagnostic tool used to monitor engraftment kinetics
after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. It reflects the proportion of recipient and donor …

Analysis of short tandem repeats (STR) is the predominant method for post‐transplant
monitoring of donor engraftment. It can enable early detection of disease relapse, level of …

This review highlights literature pertinent to chimerism analysis in the context of
hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). We also conducted a survey of testing practices of …

Approaches to the measurement of lymphohematopoietic chimerism have evolved from
laboratory research to important clinical tools. However, there has been no logical …

Abstract Analysis of donor chimerism has become a routine method for the documentation of
engraftment after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In recent years …

Background Quantification of chimerism showing the proportion of the donor in a recipient is
essential for the follow-up of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation but can also be useful …

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment for most hematologic
diseases. To evaluate the level of donor engraftment, chimerism must be carefully monitored …
