Syngeneic Graft-vs-Host Disease

Archives of Dermatology, 1987
Graft-vs-hostD) can be a lethal complication of bone marrow transplantation. The acute form of the disease most often occurs by day 60 after transplant and may affect any or all of three major target organs, namely, skin, liver, and gastrointestinal ointestinal tract.1y ute GVHD terized by a dermatitis that begins as a pruritic macular exanthem on the ...

Ocular Graft vs. Host Disease

The Ocular Surface, 2005
Acute graft vs host disease (GVHD) is thought to be mainly a Th1 inflammatory-mediated process, whereas chronic GVHD involves primarily Th2 inflammation. To elucidate new strategies for the treatment and prevention of ocular GVHD, it is important to understand the pathophysiologic connection between systemic and organ-specific acute and chronic GVHD ...

CNS angiitis in graft vs host disease

Neurology, 2002
Graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) is a potentially treatable cause of progressive neurologic decline after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The authors present histologic confirmation of CNS granulomatous angiitis in a child with chronic GVHD after BMT. Since cranial MRI showed only nonspecific findings, CNS vasculitis associated with GVHD after BMT may ...

Skin Changes in Graft-vs-Host Disease

Southern Medical Journal, 1976
In this review of the clinical and histopathologic manifestations of the graft-vs-host reaction, the characteristic changes in the skin are given particular emphasis, since they are among the earliest and most obvious signs of this syndrome. The acute and chronic forms of graft-vs-host disease are distinguished, with notation of their different ...

Life-threatening graft-vs-host disease

Clinics in Dermatology, 2005
Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (SCT) is considered standard therapy for a variety of malignant and nonmalignant diseases. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) still represents today a major complication of hematopoietic SCT. Two types of GVHD have traditionally been recognized on the basis of the time of onset following transplantation, distinct ...

Graft-vs-Host Disease

2000
The transplantation of healthy hematopoietic stem cells into a patient with aplastic anemia or leukemia is potentially curative therapy, but the development of acute graftvs-host disease (GVHD), which often occurs even when the donor and recipient are siblings fully matched at the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci, significantly limits survival.The ...

[Graft vs host disease].

Pathologie-biologie, 2006
Graft vs host disease is a serious immunological complication of allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation, leading to a significant morbidity and mortality. It occurs when donor T lymphocyte react to foreign host cells. The physiopathology is a more complex process implicating host tissues damage caused by the conditioning regimen, cytokines ...

Antigen presentation in graft-vs-host disease

Experimental Hematology, 2003
Graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) and the sequela of immunosuppression used to prevent it remain major causes of morbidity and mortality in allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). In particular, GVHD and ineffective T-cell immune reconstitution significantly decreases the enthusiasm for offering alloSCT to patients with non-malignant inherited ...
