A 13-year-old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, who was being treated with chemotherapy (including vindesine), developed paraplegia without paresthesia, which mimic Guillain-Barré syndrome. Spinal fluid analysis showed a normal protein level, vindesine neuropathy seemed to be the cause of the patient's neurological symptoms.

Article Synopsis
- This study examines the relationship between Nrp-1(+) T cells and CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) to understand their roles in regulating immune responses.
- It involves experiments with BALB/c mice, using flow cytometry to analyze T cell populations and bioluminescence imaging to assess their effects on the ability of natural killer (NK) cells to kill melanoma cells.
- Results show that Nrp-1(+) T cells not only express higher levels of Nrp-1 compared to standard Tregs but also have a stronger negative impact on NK cell-mediated tumor cell killing, indicating that Nrp-1(+) T cells could represent a
