متن کاملActivated eosinophils in upper gastrointestinal tract of patients with graft-versus-host disease.
Digestive tract damage during graft-versus-host reaction (GVHR) causes high morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis is often late because biopsies are performed when clinical signs are severe and pathologic markers of early inflammatory lesions are lacking. Eosinophils are inflammatory cells, cytotoxic in vitro to digestive epithelium; they are found in biopsy specimens taken during acute flare-ups ...
متن کاملGraft-Versus-Host Disease of the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract After an Autologous Stem Cell Transplant
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in recipients of autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT) is less common compared to recipients of allogeneic SCT, but its existence has been well documented. Similarly, the diarrheal component of the disease is highlighted when discussing its gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations, with less emphasis given to upper GI symptoms like nausea and vomiting. We prese...
متن کاملTocilizumab, tacrolimus and methotrexate for the prevention of acute graft-versus-host disease: low incidence of lower gastrointestinal tract disease
We conducted a phase 2 study in which patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation received tocilizumab in addition to standard immune suppression with tacrolimus and methotrexate for graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis. Thirty-five patients were enrolled between January 2015 and June 2016. The median age of the cohort was 66 (range: 22-76). All patients received bus...
متن کاملGraft-versus-host disease after liver transplantation
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following liver transplantation (LT) is an uncommon complication but has high mortality and represents a major diagnostic challenge. GVHD occurs when immunocompetent donor lymphocytes originating from the transplanted liver undergo activation and clonal expansion, allowing them to mount a destructive cellular immune response against recipient tissues. Humoral GV...
