Mutual Interference between Cytomegalovirus and Reconstitution of Protective Immunity after Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a therapy option for aggressive forms of hematopoietic malignancies that are resistant to standard antitumoral therapies. Hematoablative treatment preceding HCT, however, opens a "window of opportunity" for latent Cytomegalovirus (CMV) by releasing it from immune control with the consequence of reactivation of productive viral gene expression and recu...
متن کاملRelationship between Molecular Chimerism and Graft Versus Host Disease after Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Background: Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is considered as a curative therapy for a broad range of diseases. However, complications such as relapse and graft versus host disease (GVHD) may be observed following BMT. Chimerism analysis serves as a reliable indicator of transplant outcome. Complete chimerism refers to the complete replacement of hematopoietic system by donor cells, while mixe...
متن کاملImmune reconstitution and immunotherapy after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
APPROXIMATELY 10,000 autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplants are performed worldwide each year for malignant diseases.1 Results of randomized trials in recent years suggest that high-dose chemotherapy followed by infusion of autologous HSCs can offer prolonged disease-free survival in hematologic malignancies including non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in relapse,2 acute myelogenous leukemia,...
متن کاملImmune Reconstitution after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
The timely reconstitution and regain of function of a donor-derived immune system is of utmost importance for the recovery and long-term survival of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Of note, new developments such as umbilical cord blood or haploidentical grafts were associated with prolonged immunodeficiency due to delayed immune reconstitution, raising ...
متن کاملImmune reconstitution after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has proved to be an effective treatment for certain hematologic malignancies. However, relapse rates are high during the first year after transplantation. These relapses are attributed to the failure of high-dose chemotherapy to eradicate minimal residual malignant disease. In allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, the higher antit...
