Thromboxane A (TXA), a prothrombotic factor that induces platelet aggregation and thrombosis, acts as a vasoconstrictor by activating TXA receptors (TP receptors). TXA is extremely unstable and metabolizes into three major metabolites: 2,3-dinor thromboxane B (2,3-dinor-TXB), 11-dehydro TXB(11-dh-TXB), and 11-dehydro-2,3-dinor TXB(11-dh-2,3-dinor-TXB). 8-Iso-prostaglandin F(8-iso-PGF), a prostaglandin-like compound widely considered the best biomarker of oxidative stress, can also activate TP receptors.

Background And Objectives: The most widely used method of platelet cryopreservation requires the addition of 5%-6% dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), followed by its pre-freeze removal via centrifugation, to minimize toxicity. However, this adds complexity to the pre-freeze and post-thaw processing. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to simplify platelet cryopreservation by reducing the DMSO concentration and omitting the requirement for pre-transfusion removal.

Objective: To present a young girl with pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) and concurrent severe hemolytic anemia who underwent fertility preservation and cryopreservation. Clinical symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and new strategies for fertility protection and preservation in PKD patients who require allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell therapy are explored.
Case Presentation: Six-year-old girl with persistent unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia and severe hemolytic anemia since birth, continuous elevation of bilirubin levels and severe splenomegaly.

Background: Several adult studies show mixed reports in clinical outcomes between cryopreserved and fresh stem cell products, with majority reporting no significant differences and others report that there are differences in outcomes. There is limited literature reporting its impact on outcomes in pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT).
Objective: To compare clinical outcomes between fresh vs cryopreserved stem cell treatment in pediatric HSCT.

The biological products used in orthopedics include musculoskeletal allografts-such as bones, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage-as well as biological therapies. Musculoskeletal allografts support the body's healing process by utilizing preserved and sterilized donor tissue. These allografts are becoming increasingly common in surgical practice, allowing patients to avoid more invasive procedures and the risks associated with donor site morbidity.
