Chimerism analysis has become an important tool for the peri-transplant surveillance of
engraftment. It offers the possibility to realize impending graft rejection and can serve as an …

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

Background. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have immunomodulatory effects. The aim was
to study the effect of MSC infusion on graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Methods. We gave …

Seven patients underwent treatment with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), together with
allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). MSCs were given to three …

Purpose Reduced intensity conditioning regimen (RIC) is increasingly used in
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Unrelated donor (UD) transplants have …

Allogeneic haematological stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has developed into
immunotherapy. Donor CD4+, CD8+ and natural killer (NK) cells have been reported to …

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have emerged as a heterogeneic
immunoregulatory population that can expand in response to inflammatory signals …

Abstract Analysis of donor chimerism is an important diagnostic tool to assess the risk of
relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation, especially in patients lacking a specific …

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is increasingly being used for
treatment of hematologic malignancies, and the immunologic graft-versus-tumor effect (GVT) …

Because human white adipocytes display a high turnover throughout adulthood, a
continuous supply of precursor cells is required to maintain adipogenesis. Bone marrow …
