CD7-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has shown promising initial complete remission (CR) rates in patients with refractory or relapsed (r/r) T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL). To enhance the remission duration, consolidation with allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is considered. Our study delved into the outcomes of 34 patients with r/r T-ALL/LBL who underwent allo-HSCT after achieving CR with autologous CD7 CAR-T therapy.

However, the duration of remission requires improvements. Whether bridging to a second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) after CAR-T therapy can improve long-term survival remains controversial.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 199 hematological malignancy patients who received allo-HSCT2 as a salvage treatment post allo-HSCT1 relapse between November 2012 and October 2021.
Results: The median age at allo-HSCT2 was 23 (range: 3-60) years.
Background And Objectives: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is a treatment for hematopoietic diseases. However, most cured female patients may suffer from premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) after HCT, which is mainly caused by the pre-HCT conditioning regimen. Hence, this study aims to explore the impact of HCT treatment on reproductive and ovarian functions in female survivors.

Comparisons of safety and efficacy of allo-HSCT following complete remission (CR) achieved by CAR-T therapy by chemotherapy for B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) has not been reported. We performed a parallel comparison of transplant outcomes in 105 consecutive B-ALL patients who received allo-HSCT after achieving CR with CAR-T therapy (n=27) or with chemotherapy (n=78).

Our study is to demonstrate that IBMFS with disease-specific characteristics requires a tailored conditioning regimens to enhance engraftment and reduce regimen related toxicities. : We retrospectively analyzed 42 patients diagnosed with IBMFS and transplanted with an alternative donor graft at our center from November 2012 to August 2018.

With this background, we compared outcomes among 377 cases of CR following consecutive HID-HSCT for AML (CR) to 86 MUD and 92 MSD-HSCT cases. All patients received BU-based myeloablative conditioning and an unmanipulated graft within the same period.

However, it is unclear whether an HID-HSC transplant also augments the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect among refractory/relapsed (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients who are not in remission (NR). We conducted a retrospective analysis of 124 R/R AML patients with NR status who underwent HID-HSCT between April 2012 and December 2016 and compared these to 27 R/R AML patients who underwent an ISD-HSCT within the same timeframe.

Due to the low content of soil organic carbon, increasing the application rate of nitrogen fertilizer would not lead to a continuous increase of maize yield at present. The combined application of organic fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer is widely regarded as a measure to simultaneously increase grain yield and soil organic carbon; however, the effect of organic fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer application on NO emissions from farmland in the North China Plain is unclear.

However, studies on haplo- and MUD transplantation in SAA are lacking. The present study retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of 89 young SAA patients who underwent unmanipulated alternative HSCT between September 2012 and September 2016 at our single center.

Coastal wetlands contribute about 75% to the global oceanic CH emissions, thus play a vital role in global C cycles. In this paper, we provided a perspective on researches on metabolic, phylogenetic, and ecological diversity of the methanogenic archaea and the regulating environmental factors in coastal wetlands. Because of the presence of more favorable electron acceptors such as sulfate, methanogenesis via CO reduction and acetate fermentation are limited by availability of substrates, and hydrogenotrophic and acetotrophic methanogens generally express low relative abundance.

Herein, we report a single cohort retrospective analysis of 567 cases of HLA mismatched allogeneic HSCT patients from the Lu Dao-pei Hematology Center, transplanted between September 11, 2012, and November 20, 2014. Of these cases, 306 patients underwent HLA class I and II antibody testing within one month before transplantation.

Objective: To analyze the clinical and laboratory features of 9 cases of gammadeltaT cell lymphoma or leukemia.
Methods: From 2007 to 2011, 9 patients with gammadeltaT-cell lymphoma/leukemia were diagnosed in our hospital. The immunophenotype of the abnormal cells were detected by flow cytometry, clonal gene rearrangement of IgH, TCRgamma, TCRdelta by PCR, chromosome karyotype analysis by G banding, acute leukemia gene and the DNA of type 1 - 8 human herpes virus by multiple nested PCR, The gammadeltaT cells were determined by T cell with TCR gammadelta chain, the malignant gammadelta T cells by the abnormal expression of T cell antigens and the precursor malignant gammadelta T cells by the expression of CD34, TDT, CD99, CD1 a or acute leukemia genes.
By the soil respiration system of Li-6400, the characteristics of soil respiration with and without litter were investigated to explore the litter's contributions to soil respiration and its correlations with the input of litter and environmental factors under different land-use types in Sanjiang Plain. Results demonstrated that the average contribution of litter to soil respiration ranged from - 0.21 to 0.

The results showed that under aerobic condition, there were no significant effects on the mineralization of SOC and contents of DOC as the net nitrogen input was 1 mg x g(-1) (N1), however, they were significantly higher than control and N1 treatments when nitrogen input increased to 2 and 5 mg x g(-1) (N2, N3), and the amount of DOC was respectively 187.22% and 203.

Background & Objective: The presence of Coxsackie and adenovirus receptor (CAR) on target cell surface is required for efficient adenovirus transfection; lack or down-regulated expression of CAR on cancer cells is the main cause of inefficiency of adenovirus-based gene therapy. This study was to evaluate enhancive effect of trichostatin A (TSA), a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, on the transfection efficiency of adenovirus in ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780, and explore its possible application to adenovirus-based gene therapy.
Methods: mRNA and protein levels of CAR on A2780 cells were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot before and after treatment of TSA.
