Benefits of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy for B-Cell Lymphoma.

The aim was to study the benefits and risks of anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells in adults with B-cell lymphoma. From October 2015 to October 2021, we treated five patients with B-cell lymphoma, comprising two with mantle cell lymphoma, one case of Burkitt lymphoma, one case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and one case of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma. The patients were given the FC regimen 5 days before the infusion of anti-CD19 CAR T-cells.

[Expression and clonal proliferation of TCR Vbeta subfamilies of peripheral T-cells in acute myeloid leukemia patients].

This study was purposed to investigate the expression and clonal proliferation of receptor (TCR) Vbeta subfamilies of the T-cells in acute leukemic patients at different disease status (onset, complete remission or relapse) and to analyze the influence of the leukemic cell load on anti-leukemic effect of peripheral T-lymphocytes of the patients. Gene sequences of peripheral TCR Vbeta 24 families from 11 leukemic patients and 3 normal donors were expanded by RT-PCR. Genescan technique was applied to evaluate clonal expression of the TCRVbeta subfamilies, clonal characteristics of the CDR3 from peripheral blood of AML patients at different disease status.

[Large scale expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells from umbilical cord blood by magnet stirred culture system].

The aim of this study was to expand hematopoietic progenitor cells at large scale by magnet stirred culture system. Mononuclear cell from umbilical cord blood were cultured in serum-free medium with stem cell factor, FIT-3 ligand and thrombopoietin. Firstly, the role of magnet on cell growth and colony-forming was studied by static culture on 0, 25 and 50 mT.
