We studied myeloid and lymphoid recovery during a period of 12 months following HLA matched allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in 15 patients. Patients were divided into three groups. Each group contained 5 patients according to the source of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HST): 1) related bone marrow transplantation (BMT), 2) allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) and 3) matched unrelated donor transplantation (MUD). The rate and pattern of recovery of granulocytes, lymphocytes (T-cell subsets, B-cells, NK cells, subsets of CD45) were studied by cell counting and flow cytometry. Our results suggest faster recovery of PMN after PBSCT. Higher CD4 cell counts observed in the PBSCT group may have an impact on a lower incidence of opportunistic infections. Chronic GvHD mediated GvL effect seems to be more important in blood stem cell transplanted patients and this may have an influence on disease free survival.

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

January 2025

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.
