Graft-vs-host disease [PDF]

open access: yesDermatology Online Journal, 2013
We present a case of chronic graft-versus-host disease in a 61-year-old woman with a history of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia that was treated with an allogeneic bone marrow transplant from an unrelated donor. The patient initially presented with erythematous patches on the trunk and extremities that evolved into reticulated, hyperpigmented ...

Prevention of graft-vs.-host disease [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2012
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative treatment for many malignant and non-malignant hematologic disorders. However, graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) remains a major complication of allogeneic HCT and limits the success of this approach.This paper reviews recent developments in the prevention of acute and chronic GVHD.

Donor single nucleotide polymorphism in ACAT1 affects the incidence of graft-versus-host disease after bone marrow transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) is an enzyme that converts cholesterol to cholesteryl esters. A recent in vivo study reported that inhibiting ACAT1 enzyme activity upregulates the membrane cholesterol levels of T cells, enhancing ...

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

Macrophage regulation of graft-vs-host disease

open access: yesWorld Journal of Clinical Cases, 2020
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has become a curative choice of many hematopoietic malignancy, but graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) has limited the survival quality and overall survival of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Understanding of the immune cells' reaction in pathophysiology of GVHD has improved, but a review on the role of ...
