Objective: To analyze the effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of patients with recurrent refractory B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and the related factors affecting the prognosis.
Methods: The clinical data of 47 cases of recurrent refractory B cell NHL treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Survival curves were drawn by Kaplan-Meier, and survival analyses were performed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to analyze the prognostic factors.
Results: The complete remission rate was 51.06% before autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, but it increased to 65.96% after transplantation. The median survival time was 21 months, the 3 years progression-free survival rate was 40.43%, and the 3 years overall survival rate was 48.94%. The results of unvariate analysis showed that no using the rituximab in the first treatment and incomplete remission shown by PET/CT before transplantation all were the risk factors (P<0.05) affecting the prognosis. By multifactor analysis, it was found that the incomplete remission shown by PET/CT before transplantation was a risk factor for the prognosis(P<0.05).
Conclusion: The application of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with relapsed and refractory B cell NHL can improve the clinical efficacy, and the incomplete remission shown by PET/CT before transplantation is more adverse to the patients' prognosis.

Peripheral nerves promote mouse bone marrow regeneration by activating b2 and b3 adrenergic receptor signaling, raising the possibility that non-selective b blockers could inhibit engraftment after hematopoietic cell transplants (HCTs). We observed no effect of b blockers on steady-state mouse hematopoiesis. However, mice treated with a non-selective b blocker (carvedilol), but not a b1-selective inhibitor (metoprolol), exhibited impaired hematopoietic regeneration after syngeneic or allogeneic HCTs.

Introduction: CAR-T therapy has transformed the treatment landscape for relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL).
Areas Covered: This article reviews the existing evidence for using CAR-T therapy as a second-line treatment. Two major phase 3 trials, ZUMA-7 and TRANSFORM, have shown that axi-cel and liso-cel, respectively, offer superior outcomes compared to historical standard chemoimmunotherapy and consolidation with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HCT).

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is less common in autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) recipients than in allogeneic SCT recipients. However, some cases of severe GVHD, especially involving the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, have been documented. We present a patient with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) exhibiting severe GI-GVHD after ASCT with busulfan/thiotepa conditioning.

Autosomal recessively inherited variants in the JAGN1 gene lead to congenital neutropenia, early-onset bacterial infections, aphthosis and skin abscesses due to aberrant differentiation and maturation of neutrophils. In addition, bone metabolism disorders and a syndromic phenotype, including facial features, short stature and neurodevelopmental delay, have been reported in affected patients.

This retrospective study aimed to stress the advantages of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in treating primary MM. Ninety-four MM patients who underwent initial parallel sequential auto-HSCT were selected. Data on efficacy (efficacy evaluation, renal function and hemoglobin recovery), immune reconstitution (B-cell subsets, immunoglobulin levels, T-cell subsets, NK cells, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR)) and hematopoietic reconstitution times were collected and analyzed.
