This work established the cytotoxic, antioxidant and anticancer effects of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) manufactured with fennel extract, especially on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as well. CuNPs caused cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner for two NSCLC cell lines, A549 and H1650. At 100 μg/ml, CuNPs reduced cell viability to 70% in A549 cells and 65% in H1650 cells.

Background/aim: Despite the donor-exchange program implementation for highly sensitized (HS) patients, no improvement in waiting list in those HS patients with 100% calculated panel reactive of antibodies (cPRA) is observed. Recently, it has been published the treatment with imlifidase in desensitization algorithm. However, there are low-risk strategies to reduce cPRA.

Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a recognized cause of allograft dysfunction in lung transplant recipients due to the presence of donor-specific anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies (DSAs). Here, we reported that a 69-year-old woman with underlying connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) developed recurrent fever with elevated white blood cells, C-reactive protein (CRP) and new ground-glass opacities on chest computed tomography (CT) early after double lung transplantation. After a thorough investigation for infection, rejection and relapse of primary immune diseases, the patient was found to be panel-reactive antibody (PRA) positive and DSAs positive.

Aim: To investigate the effects of anti-human Leucocyte Antigen (HLA) antibody positivity on early hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) results in patients with thalassemia major (TM).
Methods: One hundred and twenty-four HLA-matched HSCTs were performed in patients with TM between 2015 and 2022. Ninety-one patients were screened for anti-HLA antibodies by testing panel reactive antigens (PRA).

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the reasons for kidney transplant dysfunction by analyzing allograft biopsy findings. We also compared clinical outcomes and graft survival rates in patients with and without de novo donor-specific antibodies (DSA).
Methods: This retrospective observational cohort study included 79 patients who underwent kidney allograft biopsy.
