Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into neurons and astrocytes after transplantation in the spinal cord of rats with ischemia/reperfusion injury. Although bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are known to protect against spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury through anti-apoptotic effects, the precise mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, bone marrow mesenchymal ste...

Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasia (BPDCN) is a rare hematological malignancy whose pathogenesis has not yet been elucidated. Skin, bone marrow, and lymph node involvement can be observed, it generally seen in men old adults. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) features of skin marrow biopsy are essential for diagnosis. There no standardized treatment options this malignancy, the prognosis pa...

experimental and clinical studies have shown that intracoronary transplantation of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (bmscs) has resulted in regenerated infarcted myocardium and improved left ventricular (lv) function.the aim of this pilot study was to assess the benefical effectsof intracoronary transplantation of bmsc in patients with oldmyocardial infarction (omi). autologous bms...

chediak - higashi syndrome (chs) is a rare, primary immunodeficiency disorder with an autosomal recessive (ar) inheritance and characterized by re¬current infection, partial occulocutaneous albinism and an accelerated phase. in this report we describe clinical and laboratory findings from 6 chs pa¬tients. clinical and laboratory information of six patients who were referred to our center during...

Longitudinal data were analysed on the lung function of 25 of 29 survivors of childhood leukaemia or lymphoma, who had been conditioned with cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation before allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, to test whether children are particularly vulnerable to pulmonary damage after transplantation. None developed chronic graft-versus-host disease. Transfer factor and...

Autologous bone marrow transplantation has curative potential in patients with both Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who have relapsed following conventional therapy. Autologous bone marrow transplantation allows administration of higher doses of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or combined-modality therapy than is otherwise possible, often resulting in increased cure rates (20% to ...

background bone marrow transplantation (bmt)is nowadays used in various hematological disorders including leukemias. hemophilia a & b are sex linked bleeding disorders in which there are various genetic abnormalities in factor viii & ix genes. among various hematological disorders, bleeding disorders mainly hemophilia in now widely treated using plasma derived and recombinant factor viii & ix c...

We have investigated approaches to induce graft-versusleukemia (GVL) effect in autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) without graft-versus-host disease to improve survival and cure in leukemia. The present study shows that bone marrow transplantation (BMT) using syngeneic bone marrow activated with interleukin-2 (ABM) for 24 hours in vitro, followed by interleukin-2 (IL-2) therapy, was s...
