Original Source: Cyclophosphamide and/or Mycophenolate Mofetil With or Without Tacrolimus in Treating Patients Who Are Undergoing a Donor Bone Marrow or Peripheral Stem Cell Transplant for Hematologic Cancer

RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, and radiation therapy before a donor bone marrow or stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune system and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against...

Altered balance between Th1 and Th17 cells in circulation is an indicator for the severity of murine acute GVHD.

Disbalance of Th1 and Th17 can lead to inflammatory diseases and autoimmunity. Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is now considered as a compound and dysregulated immune response. Both Th1 and Th1...

Anti-host isohemagglutinin production is associated with a higher risk of acute GVHD in ABO-incompatible transplantation.

We retrospectively analyzed the association between anti-host isohemagglutinin (IH) production and the development of acute GVHD. Of 189 patients who received minor or major/minor ABO-incompatible hem...

High-dose cyclophosphamide for graft-versus-host disease prevention.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Administration of high-dose cyclophosphamide after transplantation inhibits both graft rejection and graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in mouse models of allogeneic blood or marrow t...

Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD) - an update : Part 2: Prognosis and therapy of GvHD.

Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) remains one of the major complications after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) and is responsible for morbidity, mortality and decrease in quality of life of...

Expression of α4β7 integrin on memory CD8(+) T cells at the presentation of acute intestinal GVHD.

Acute intestinal GVHD remains a major source of morbidity after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). α4β7 integrin is a cell surface molecule that mediates lymphocyte trafficking to...
