Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) reside in specific microenvironments that facilitate their regulation through both internal mechanisms and external cues. Bone marrow endothelial cells (BMECs), which are found in one of these microenvironments, play a vital role in controlling the self-renewal and differentiation of HSCs during hematological stress. We previously showed that 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC) administration of exogenous 27HC negatively affected the population of HSCs and progenitor cells by increasing the reactive oxygen species levels in the bone marrow. However, the effect of 27HC on BMECs is unclear. To determine the function of 27HC in BMECs, we employed magnetic-activated cell sorting to isolate CD31 BMECs and CD31 cells. We demonstrated the effect of 27HC on CD31 BMECs and HSCs. Treatment with exogenous 27HC led to a decrease in the number of BMECs and reduced the expression of adhesion molecules that are crucial for maintaining HSCs. Our results demonstrate that BMECs are sensitively affected by 27HC and are crucial for HSC survival.

Background: A 73-year-old female with a 3 year history of Alzheimer's disease was treated within the protocol of The Alzheimer's Autism and Cognitive Impairment Stem Cell Treatment Study (ACIST), an IRB approved clinical study registered with clinicaltrials.gov NCT03724136.
Method: The procedure consists of bone marrow aspiration, cell separation using an FDA cleared class 2 device, and intravenous and intranasal administration of the stem cell fraction.

Purpose Of The Study: The preclinical study aimed to compare the healing of segmental bone defects treated with biodegradable hyaluronic acid and tricalcium phosphate-based hydrogel with the established autologous spongioplasty. Another aim was to evaluate the hydrogel as a scaffold for osteoinductive growth factor of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and stem cells.
Material And Methods: The study was conducted in an in vivo animal model.

This study retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of 61 pediatric patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) between 2011 and 2023. Patients were categorized into primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDD), primary immune dysregulation disorders (PIRD), and congenital defects of phagocyte number or function (CDP). Median ages at diagnosis and HSCT were 9 and 30 months, respectively.

Background: The histologic classification of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) as alveolar (aRMS) or embryonal (eRMS) is of prognostic importance, with the aRMS being associated with a worse outcome. Specific gene fusions (PAX3/7::FOXO1) found in the majority of aRMS have been recognized as markers associated with poor prognosis and are included in current risk stratification instead of histologic subtypes in localized disease. In metastatic disease, the independent prognostic significance of fusion status has not been definitively established.
