The 2016 revision to the World Health Organization classification of myeloid neoplasms and acute leukemia

Daniel A. Arber, Attilio Orazi, Robert P. Hasserjian et al. · 12 Apr 2016

The World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues was last updated in 2008. Since then, there have been numerous advances in the identification of unique biomarkers associated with some myeloid neoplasms and acute leukemias, largely derived from gene expression analysis and next-generation sequencing that can significantly improve the diagnostic…

Human mesenchymal stem cells modulate allogeneic immune cell responses

Sudeepta Aggarwal, Mark F. Pittenger · 20 Oct 2004

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells found in several adult tissues. Transplanted allogeneic MSCs can be detected in recipients at extended time points, indicating a lack of immune recognition and clearance. As well, a role for bone marrow-derived MSCs in reducing the incidence and severity of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) during allogeneic transplantation has recently…
