Mixed hematopoietic chimerism following bone marrow transplantation for hematologic malignancies.
Twenty-nine of 172 patients (17%) who received an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) from histocompatible sibling donors for hematologic malignancies were mixed hematopoietic chimeras; ie, they had a mixture of donor and host hematopoietic or lymphohematopoietic cells at greater than or equal to 14 days after transplantation. Twenty-four of the 29 mixed chimeras (83%) have remained in cont...
متن کاملGene therapy and bone marrow transplantation
Despite the tremendous advances in antiretroviral combination therapy over the last decade, eradication of HIV from the infected organism is still an elusive goal. Lifelong therapy is associated with potential long-term toxicity, adherence problems, and development of drug resistance. Thus, gene therapy approaches targeting viral eradication are still attractive. Here a number of studies have f...
متن کاملGene therapy and bone marrow transplantation.
Retrovirus-mediated gene transfer into hematopoietic stem cells has been shown in mice, large animals, and humans. Transduction efficiency has been high in mice but has remained low in large animals and humans. Improved transduction efficiency into hematopoietic progenitor cells of large animals and humans has been achieved in vitro by enriching for CD34+ cells, adding growth factors to the tra...
متن کاملALLOGENIC BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTATION IN APLASTIC ANEMIA
Eighteen patients, twelve men and six women, with aplastic anemia underwent allogenic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA-matched siblings during the period of 1990 to 1996. The conditioning regimen was cyclophosphamide with or without busulfan, depending on the cause of aplasia. Antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) and cyclosporine were used for rejection and acute GVHD prophylaxis, respe...
متن کاملBone Marrow Transplantation in Thalassemia (Part 2)
During the last two decades conventional therapy has improved the prognosis of thalassemia. However, despite such improvement it still remains a progressive disease with treatment-related complications such as hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and cardiac disease. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) can prevent or delay progression of the aforementioned complications. The importance of clinical research...
