Injection of neonatal bone marrow cells from mice lacking the gene encoding suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) into irradiated syngeneic 129/Sv or C57BL/6 mice led to a decreased survival, more rapidly occurring in 129/Sv than in C57BL/6 mice. Moribund mice did not exhibit the acute or chronic diseases developed by Socs1-/- mice but developed a pathology characteristic of graft-versus-host disease with typical chronic inflammatory lesions in the liver, skin, lungs, and gut. The results indicate that cells derived from the Socs1-/- bone marrow are autoaggressive but did not identify the cell types involved. Failure of the engrafted Socs1-/- marrow cells to reproduce the tissue damage typical of Socs1-/- disease indicates that loss of SOCS1 from target tissues may also be required for the development of the Socs1-/- diseases, such as fatty degeneration of the liver, polymyositis, or corneal inflammation.

Functional cartilaginous tissues can potentially be engineered by bringing together numerous microtissues (µTs) and allowing them to fuse and re-organize into larger, structurally organized grafts. The maturation level of individual microtissues is known to influence their capacity to fuse, however its impact on the long-term development of the resulting tissue remains unclear. The first objective of this study was to investigate the influence of the maturation state of human bone-marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hBM-MSCSs) derived microtissues on their fusion capacity and the phenotype of the final engineered tissue.

Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is used to restore bone marrow function after high-dose chemotherapy. For apheresis, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is standard of care, but obtaining sufficient stem cells can be challenging. Other mobilization agents include plerixafor and PEGylated G-CSF (PEG-G-CSF).

PurposeChimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell CD19 therapy has changed the treatment paradigm for patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It is frequently associated with potentially severe toxicities: cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), and admission to PICU is often required. Some biomarkers seem to correlate with CRS severity.

Bone is a multifaceted tissue requiring orchestrated interplays of diverse cells within specialized microenvironments. Although significant progress has been made in understanding cellular and molecular mechanisms of component cells of bone, revealing their spatial organization and interactions in native bone tissue microenvironment is crucial for advancing precision medicine, as they govern fundamental signaling pathways and functional dependencies among various bone cells. In this study, we present the first integrative high-resolution map of human bone and bone marrow, using spatial and single-cell transcriptomics profiling from femoral tissue.

Background: The management of multiple myeloma is challenging because the disease is incurable and unexpected relapses can threaten a patient's survival. Several assessment systems are currently available, but they often require invasive or costly procedures (e.g.
