The Korean Journal of GastroenterologyAcute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Steroid-refractory cases have poor outcomes, so an accurate diagnosis, particularly differentiation from cytomegalovirus colitis,

OncoImmunology, 2017 The demethylating agent 5-azacytidine (AZA) has proven its efficacy in the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia. In addition, AZA can demethylate FOXP3 intron 1 (FOXP3i1) leading to the generation of regulatory T cells (Treg).

Toll-Like Receptor Stimulation by MicroRNAs in Acute Graft-vs.-Host Disease
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Acute graft-vs.-host disease (aGVHD) is a frequent complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), accounting for substantial morbidity and mortality associated with this treatment modality.

The IL-12 Cytokine and Receptor Family in Graft-vs.-Host Disease
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is performed with curative intent for high- risk blood cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes; yet the development of acute and chronic graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) remain preeminent causes of ...

Cytokine Detection and Modulation in Acute Graft vs. Host Disease in Mice
Mediators of Inflammation, 1994 A murine model for acute lethal graft vs. host disease (GVHD) was used to study the role that a number of cytokines play in the development of lethal GVHD. In this study we focused on the role of IL-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α.

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2018 The most effective treatment of steroid refractory acute graft vs. host disease (aGvHD) is not yet established and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) appear to be a promising therapy for the condition. We report single center case series of three patients, who

Activated protein C protects from GvHD via PAR2/PAR3 signalling in regulatory T-cells
Nature Communications, 2017 Graft-vs.-host disease is a complication of allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Here the authors show that activated protein C signals via PAR2/PAR3 to expand Treg cells, mitigating the ...
