In an attempt to assign the Colton blood group locus (CO) we have successfully revisited chromosome 7. CO is linked to the argininosuccinate synthetase pseudogene 11 locus (ASSP11) with z = 5.79 at theta = 0.07 for combined paternal and maternal meioses. We propose a 7p position for CO.

Post-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) blood processing is an important component of blood management during cardiac surgery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate several methods of processing post-CPB residual blood. Using a multi-institutional national database (SpecialtyCare Operative Procedural rEgistry [SCOPE]), 77,591 cardiac surgical operations performed in adults (>18 years) between January 2017 and September 2022 were reviewed.

This study evaluates the implementation of a blood culture (BCx) algorithm in the neurology ICU (NICU) to reduce BCx event (BCE) rates. Results show a reduction in BCE rates, without increasing adverse outcomes. The findings support the feasibility of BCx algorithms for improving diagnostic stewardship in the specialized NICU population.

Background: Atorvastatin (ATO) is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor used to lower blood cholesterol, but it causes renal injury in high doses. Thymoquinone (TQ), is a natural antioxidant that has been shown to protect the kidney through its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, & antiapoptotic, effects.
Objective: The current study aimed to investigate whether posttreatment TQ could reverse ATOinduced renal injury, and the possible mechanism of action by which TQ produced such an effect.
Origins of T-cell-mediated autoimmunity in acquired aplastic anaemia.

Division of Hematology-Oncology, Department of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Acquired aplastic anaemia (AA) is an autoimmune bone marrow failure disease resulting from a cytotoxic T-cell-mediated attack on haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Despite significant progress in understanding the T-cell repertoire alterations in AA, identifying specific pathogenic T cells in AA patients has remained elusive, primarily due to the unknown antigenic targets of the autoimmune attack. In this review, we will synthesize findings from several decades of research to critically evaluate the current knowledge on T-cell repertoires in AA.

The management of autoimmune diseases is currently limited by therapies that largely suppress the immune system, often resulting in partial and temporary remissions. Cellular immunotherapies offer a targeted approach by redirecting immune cells to correct the underlying autoimmunity. This review explores the latest advances in cellular immunotherapies for autoimmune diseases, focusing on various strategies, such as the use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells, chimeric auto-antibody receptor (CAAR) T cells, regulatory T cells (Tregs), and tolerogenic dendritic cells (TolDCs).
