Monolayer cultivation of the radiated bone marrow was performed in 39 lymphogranulomatosis patients with a long-term remission attained after radiotherapy according to the radical program. In 41 patients, the non-radiated bone marrow was also subjected to monolayer cultivation. Counts were made of the total number of myelokaryocytes and myelogram. Analysis of the punctates from the radiated areas has shown that the growth of fibroblast colonies occurred where complete or partial recovery of the cellularity was detected and the total focal dose per bone marrow was less than 35 Gy. With the use of large doses the growth of the colonies was detected in none of the cases. In the radiated areas, the patients commonly manifested bone marrow aplasia. Investigation of the punctates from intact areas pointed to the growth of the colonies in the majority of cases whereas the myelogram count to the increased percentage of the reticular cells, lymphoid and erythroid elements.

Youthful Stem Cell Microenvironments: Rejuvenating Aged Bone Repair Through Mitochondrial Homeostasis Remodeling.

Extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from mesenchymal stem cells regulates antioxidant properties and bone metabolism by providing a favorable extracellular microenvironment. However, its functional role and molecular mechanism in mitochondrial function regulation and aged bone regeneration remain insufficiently elucidated. This proteomic analysis has revealed a greater abundance of proteins supporting mitochondrial function in the young ECM (Y-ECM) secreted by young bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) compared to the aged ECM (A-ECM).

Neutrophils play key protective roles in influenza infections, yet excessive neutrophilic inflammation is a hallmark of acute lung injury during severe infections. Phenotypic heterogeneity is increasingly recognized in neutrophil populations; however, how functional variation in neutrophils between individuals determine the diverse outcomes of influenza remains unclear. To examine immunologic responses that may drive varying outcomes in influenza, we infected C57BL/6 (B6) and A/J mice with mouse-adapted influenza A virus A/PR/8/34 H1N1.

Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a chronic systemic bone metabolism disorder. Promotion in the patterns of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) differentiation towards osteoblasts contributes to alleviating osteoporosis. Aucubin, a natural compound isolated from the well-known herbal medicine Eucommia, was previously shown to possess various pharmacological effects.

Facilitating neuronal differentiation of stem cells and microenvironment remodeling are the key challenges in cell-based transplantation strategies for central nervous system regeneration. Herein, the study harnesses the intrinsic pro-neural differentiation potential of nerve-derived extracellular matrix (NDEM) and its specific affinity for cytokines to develop an NDEM-gelatin methacryloyl(gelMA)-based bifunctional hydrogel delivery system for stem cells and cytokines. This system promotes the neural differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and optimizes the therapeutic index of Interleukin-4 (IL-4) for spinal cord injury (SCI) treatment.

Real Life Blood Management Practices in Thalassemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome Patients.

Anemia

Department of Hematology, Mehmet Akif Inan Egitim Ve Arastirma Hastanesi, Sanliurfa, Turkey.

The effect of pretransfusion hemoglobin on transfusion burden, thrombosis, and mortality in thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndrome is unclear. We aimed to study the pretransfusion hemoglobin and erythrocyte transfusion burden and investigate the effects of these variables on each other in real-life in thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Adult patients with thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndrome who received at least one erythrocyte concentrate unit outpatient at Sanliurfa Mehmet Akif Inan Training and Research Hospital during 1 year were included in the study.
