Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to evaluate the thrombotic risk associated with autologous cell therapy products (CTPs) used in critical limb ischemia, as well as to compare two types of CTPs (bone marrow vs. peripheral blood) for their thrombogenic potential.
  • - Patients displayed high cardiovascular risk factors with notable inflammatory and coagulation markers, but both types of CTPs showed low levels of thrombin generation post-implantation.
  • - After 24 hours, while the PB-CTP group remained stable, the BM-CTP group showed increased levels of certain markers, and only one patient experienced deep vein thrombosis after receiving PB-CTPs, indicating good tolerance overall.

Background: The development of flow cytometry as a useful tool for the detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is potentially hampered by the fact that a normal subset of B-cells with a similar immunophenotype is present in the peripheral blood. This subset of CLL-like cells is not well defined in terms of frequency.

Methods: Here, we performed a multicenter study with a panel of four-color antibody combinations possibly useful for the detection of MRD in CLL, to establish the levels of normal CLL-like cells in 49 healthy controls.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a poor treatment option for nodular basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas. As a result, the search for new photosensitizers with better effectiveness is of current interest. The photocytotoxicity of conjugates (P-R) of a water-soluble tri-cationic porphyrin (P-H) having similar efficiency of production of singlet oxygen, the PDT cytotoxin, has been assessed in vitro.
