Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantation for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia - 10/13

چکیده
Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) refers to a procedure in which hematopoietic stem cells are infused to restore bone marrow function in cancer patients who receive bone-marrowtoxic doses of cytotoxic drugs, with or without whole-body radiation therapy. Bone marrow stem cells may be obtained from the transplant recipient (i.e., autologous HSCT) or from a donor (i.e., allogeneic HSCT). They can be harvested from bone marrow, peripheral blood, or umbilical cord blood and placenta shortly after delivery of neonates. Although cord blood is an allogeneic source, the stem cells in it are antigenically “naïve” and thus are associated with a lower incidence of graftversus-host disease (GVHD).

Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) which give rise to different blood cell types are present within the bone marrow microenvironment, especially in flat bones such as skull, vertebrae, pelvis and chest. Interacting factors such as stromal derived factor-1/CXCR4, very late antigen-4/vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, Lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1/ intercellular adhesion molec...

A potential factor influencing hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (HSCT) outcome is the presence of donor-derived alloreactive natural killer (NK) cells. This retrospective analysis studied the impact of NK alloreactivity based on the missing KIR ligand, for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients undergoing non-T-cell depleted HLA-identical sibling HS...
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...

Background: Somatic mutations in the hotspot region of the DNA-methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) gene were recurrently identified in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It is believed that DNMT3A mutations confer an adverse prognosis for AML patients. These lines of evidence support the need for a rapid and cost-efficient method for the detection of these mutations. The present study aimed to establish h...

متن کاملAssessment of Cyclosporine Serum Concentrations on the Incidence of Acute Graft versus Host Disease Post Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment option for hematological disorders. Cyclosporine (CsA) is one of the major immunosuppressive agents for the prophylaxis against graft versus host disease (GvHD). In this retrospective study, we evaluated the effects of CsA serum levels on the incidence of acute GvHD and transplant outcomes. 103 adult patients rece...
