Transplant acceptance-inducing cells as an immune-conditioning therapy in renal transplantation
The transplant acceptance-inducing cell (TAIC) is a type of immunoregulatory macrophage with the capacity to specifically dampen allogeneic rejection responses to a degree allowing safe minimization of conventional immunosuppressive therapy. In the first part of this report, the production and phenotype of the human TAIC is described.

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

HLA-DPB1 matching status has significant implications for recipients of unrelated donor stem cell transplants. [PDF]
Studies in unrelated donor (UD) hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (HSCT) show an effect of the matching status of HLA-DPB1 on complications. We analyzed 423 UD-HSCT pairs. Most protocols included T-cell depletion (TCD).

Targeting the Spleen as an Alternative Site for Hematopoiesis [PDF]
Bone marrow is the main site for hematopoiesis in adults. It acts as a niche for hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and contains non-hematopoietic cells that contribute to stem cell dormancy, quiescence, self-renewal and differentiation.

MECHANICAL CONDITIONING OF GREENHOUSE-GROWN TRANSPLANTS [PDF]
Since chemical growth retardants are no longer labelled for use on vegetable transplants, mechanical conditioning provides an alternative method of controlling excessive stem elongation under greenhouse conditions. Mechanical conditioning includes brushing or shaking treatments that physically impact or displace the plant and generally reduce plant ...
