CLINICAL TRIALS AND OBSERVATIONS Lethal hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type II
Griscelli syndrome (GS) was diagnosed in a 2-year-old patient with oculocutaneous albinism and immunodeficiency, but sequencing of RAB27a revealed only a heterozygous mutation. Due to impaired natural killer (NK) and T-cell cytotoxicity implying a high risk of developing hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), he was prepared for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Unexpectedly, a...
متن کاملCLINICAL OBSERVATIONS, INTERVENTIONS, AND THERAPEUTIC TRIALS Treatment of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis with HLH-94 immunochemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) comprises familial (primary) hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHL) and secondary HLH (SHLH), both clinically characterized by fever, hepatosplenomegaly, and cytopenia. FHL, an autosomal recessive disease invariably fatal when untreated, is associated with defective triggering of apoptosis and reduced cytotoxic activity, resulting in a widespread accum...

متن کاملCrosstalk of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells with the Cellular Components of the Immune System
Using the potential of immune regulatory cell populations for cellular therapy constitutes an attractive tool to obliterate imbalances of immune responses in inflammatory disorders. In this context, adoptive transfer of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) represents a relatively novel approach and its impact on the immune system has not been completely clarified. In this thesis we aimed to study t...
متن کاملI-12: Objective Embryo Assessment Utility of Time-Lapse
Background Traditionally, embryo incubation and assessment daily has been under a light microscope, these observations are inevitably restricted to specific times and considering that the development of the embryo is a dynamic process, several critical stages in between observations may go unnoticed. For this reason, the new technologies, time lapse monitoring, have focused on the research for ...
