Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are currently exploited in numerous clinical trials to investigate their potential in immune regulation, hematopoesis or tissue regeneration. The most common source of MSCs for clinical use is human bone marrow. To generate sufficient numbers of cells relevant to clinical use in most cases the high volumes (20-50 ml) of bone marrow aspirates are taken.
Methods: In this pilot study, 8 healthy bone marrow donors were included. Two different MSC extraction methods were evaluated: MSCs extraction from 60 ml of bone marrow using density gradient and MSCs extraction from 6 ml using red blood cell (RBC) lysis.
Results: Our results showed that after RBC lysis the efficient amount of human MSCs can be isolated from 10 times less bone marrow volume (6 ml). Moreover, using small volume of bone marrow the adequate therapeutical dose of MSCs could be achieved during similar period of time (3-4 weeks). In conclusion, we have shown that MSCs isolation using RBC lysis is an effective and more advantageous method in comparison to standard MSCs isolation using density-gradient. Using RBC lysis from small volume of bone marrow the same amount of MSCs were obtained as usually using large volume and density-gradient.

Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin with sequencing (ATAC-seq) is a powerful, high-throughput technique for assessing chromatin accessibility and understanding epigenomic regulation. Neutrophils, as a crucial leukocyte type in immune responses, undergo substantial chromatin architectural changes during differentiation and activation, which significantly impact the gene expression necessary for their functions. ATAC-seq has been instrumental in uncovering key transcription factors in neutrophil maturation, revealing pathogen-specific epigenomic signatures, and identifying therapeutic targets for autoimmune diseases.

Macrophage infiltration and activation is a key factor in the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, aerobic glycolysis induced by m6A methylation modification plays a key role in M1-type activation of macrophages, but the specific mechanism remains unclear in DN. In this study, the expression of m6A demethylase Fto in bone marrow derived macrophages and primary kidney macrophages from db/db mice.

However, in a minority of patients, the malignant plasma cells are also localized outside the bone marrow, either at the level of peripheral blood (plasma cell leukemia) or at the level of soft tissues (extramedullary multiple myeloma). These two rare forms of aggressive MM (ultrahigh-risk (uHR) MM as MM leading to death within 24-36 months) are both associated with some molecular features and with a limited response to current treatments.

Background: Clonal mature B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (B-LPDs) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasia characterized by the proliferation of mature B lymphocytes in the peripheral blood, bone marrow and/or lymphoid tissues. B-LPDs classification into different subtypes and their diagnosis is based on a multiparametric approach. However, accurate diagnosis may be challenging, especially in cases of ambiguous interpretation.

Background: Resistance to chemoimmunotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) necessitates effective prognostic biomarkers. Although F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) has shown potential for efficacy assessment, it has been mainly evaluated in immuno-monotherapy setting, lacking elaborations in the scenarios of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. To tackle this dilemma, we aimed to build a non-invasive PET/CT-based model for stratifying tumor heterogeneity and predicting survival in advanced NSCLC patients undergoing chemoimmunotherapy.
