ALLOGENIC BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTATION IN APLASTIC ANEMIA
Eighteen patients, twelve men and six women, with aplastic anemia underwent allogenic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA-matched siblings during the period of 1990 to 1996. The conditioning regimen was cyclophosphamide with or without busulfan, depending on the cause of aplasia. Antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) and cyclosporine were used for rejection and acute GVHD prophylaxis, respe...
متن کاملBone Marrow Transplantation in Thalassemia (Part 2)
During the last two decades conventional therapy has improved the prognosis of thalassemia. However, despite such improvement it still remains a progressive disease with treatment-related complications such as hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and cardiac disease. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) can prevent or delay progression of the aforementioned complications. The importance of clinical research...

متن کاملTolerance induction by bone marrow transplantation in a multiple sclerosis model.
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in rats is a highly valuable model of multiple sclerosis (MS) because it mimics major hallmarks of the human disease. EAE induced with myelin-oligodendrocyte-glycoprotein (MOG) in DA rats is relapsing/remitting, and lesions in the central nervous system show inflammation, demyelination, and axonal and neuronal loss. Recently, bone marrow transplan...
متن کاملBone marrow transplantation as a strategy for tolerance induction in the clinic.
The only way to overcome the need for life-long immunosuppression in a transplant recipient is to induce tolerance. Deletional tolerance can be reliably achieved with the induction of mixed chimerism through transplantation of donor bone marrow (BM). Despite the development of increasingly milder BM transplantation (BMT) animal models, BM engraftment in humans still requires considerably toxic ...
