Breakdown of thymic tolerance - an etiologic link between acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the standard therapy for many disorders of the haematological system. Its use is limited by the major complication acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Development of acute GVHD predisposes

Cytokines in Graft-versus-Host Disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2015
Abstract Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation whereby transplanted naive and marrow-derived T cells damage recipient tissue through similar mechanisms to those that allow destruction of malignant cells, the therapeutic intent of bone marrow transplantation.
