Retrospective Analysis of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions in Pediatric Patients With Mixed Chimerism After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Complement Factor H-Related Proteins FHR1 and FHR5 Interact With Extracellular Matrix Ligands, Reduce Factor H Regulatory Activity and Enhance Complement Activation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Components of the extracellular matrix (ECM), when exposed to body fluids may promote local complement activation and inflammation. Pathologic complement activation at the glomerular basement membrane and at the Bruch’s membrane is implicated in renal ...

Carbohydrate recognition and complement activation by rat ficolin-B [PDF]

, 2010
Ficolins are innate immune components that bind to PAMPs and structures on apoptotic cells. Humans produce two serum forms (L-and H-ficolin) and a leukocyte-associated form (M-ficolin), whereas rodents and most other mammals produce ficolins-A and -B ...

Intracellular complement Factor H promotes tumor progression through modulation of cell cycle and actin cytoskeleton

Communications Biology
Overexpression of complement genes in the tumor microenvironment, including Factor H (FH), is a strong predictor of poor prognosis in multiple cancers. Its canonical functions in the bloodborne complement cascade, though, cannot explain this prognostic ...

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
