What Is Adacolumn® Adacolumn® Is an Adsorptive Type Leukocytapheresis Column, That Contains Cellulose Acetate Beads Bathed in Physiologic Saline For Granulocyte and Monocyte Adsorption (GMA) apheresis to treat patients with active IBD What is Adacolumn® Adacolumn® is an adsorptive type leukocytapheresis column, that contains cellulose acetate beads bathed in physiologic saline. As blood passes through the Adacolumn®, granulocytes and monocytes/macrophages that are known to promote inflammatory bowel disease are Adacolumn® selectively adsorbed to the beads. What is treatment with Adacolumn® The Adasystem, consiting of Adacolumn®, Adamonitor and Adacircuit, is needed to perform the treatment. Adacolumn® was CE-marked in 1999. For treatment with the Adacolumn® blood access is made via a simple veno- puncture in one of the patient’s arms. The blood passes through the Adacolumn® where activated granulocytes and monocytes/mac- rophages are removed and the blood returns to the patient via a venopuncture in the opposite arm. The extracorporeal flow rate is 30 ml/min and the duration of one treatment session is 60 min. A small dose of heparin is used as an anticoagu- lant.

  • For Inflammatory Bowel Disease
    250 NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR CLINICAL EXCELLENCE INTERVENTIONAL PROCEDURES PROGRAMME Interventional procedures overview of leukapheresis (white cell apheresis) for inflammatory bowel disease Introduction This overview has been prepared to assist members of the Interventional Procedures Advisory Committee (IPAC) in making recommendations about the safety and efficacy of an interventional procedure. It is based on a rapid review of the medical literature and specialist opinion. It should not be regarded as a definitive assessment of the procedure. Date prepared This overview was prepared in August 2004. Procedure names • Leukapheresis • White cell apheresis. • Leukocyte removal therapy. • Selective granulocyte and monocyte adsorption apheresis. • Leukocytapheresis. Specialty society • British Society of Gastroenterology. Description Indications Inflammatory bowel disease. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are the most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease. Ulcerative colitis causes inflammation and ulceration of the rectum and sometimes the colon. Symptoms include bloody diarrhoea and rectal bleeding. Crohn’s disease usually causes inflammation and ulceration of the small and large intestines, but it can affect any part of the digestive tract. The main symptoms are abdominal pain, diarrhoea and weight loss. Both of these are chronic conditions, characterised by periods of clinical relapse and remission. The incidence of ulcerative colitis is around 10 to 20 per 100,000 per year in the UK and the incidence of Crohn’s disease is approximately 5 to 10 per 100,000 per year.1 Current treatment and alternatives Conservative treatments include dietary measures, and medications to control inflammation. Immunosuppressants may be used if other medical therapies are ineffective at maintaining remission. Patients with ulcerative colitis that does not respond to medical therapy may be treated with surgery to remove the colon.

Current methods to study TAM have not been replicated across cancer types and often do not include exogenous growth factors from the tumor, a key factor in TAM differentiation in vivo. Methods: In this study, an in vitro method to generate monocyte- derived TAM using tumor- conditioned media (TCM) and a cytokine cocktail containing IL-4, IL-10, and M-CSF was utilized to study the phenotype, morphology, and function of TAM across multiple cancer types. TCM was generated from two breast cancer cell lines and an Epstein-Barr virus-positive lymphoma cell line. The properties of in vitro generated TAM were compared to in vitro generated M1 and M2- like macrophages and TAM isolated from patients with cancer. Results: TAM generated in this fashion displayed an increase in CD163/CD206 co-expression compared to M2- like http://jitc.bmj.com/ macrophages (87 and 36%, respectively).

These are primarily microbes (germs)—tiny, infection-causing Bacteria: organisms such as bacteria, viruses, streptococci parasites, and fungi. Because the human body provides an ideal environment for many microbes, they try to break in. It is the immune system’s job to keep them out or, failing that, to seek out and destroy them. Virus: When the immune system hits the wrong herpes virus target or is crippled, however, it can unleash a torrent of diseases, including allergy, arthritis, or AIDS. The immune system is amazingly complex. It can recognize and remember millions of Parasite: different enemies, and it can produce schistosome secretions and cells to match up with and wipe out each one of them.

Signore1 & F. Jamar2 & O. Israel3 & J. Buscombe4 & J. Martin-Comin5 & E. Lazzeri6 Received: 27 April 2018 /Accepted: 6 May 2018 # The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Introduction Radiolabelled autologous white blood cells (WBC) scintigraphy is being standardized all over the world to ensure high quality, specificity and reproducibility. Similarly, in many European countries radiolabelled anti-granulocyte antibodies (anti-G-mAb) are used instead of WBC with high diagnostic accuracy. The EANM Inflammation & Infection Committee is deeply involved in this process of standardization as a primary goal of the group. Aim The main aim of this guideline is to support and promote good clinical practice despite the complex environment of a national health care system with its ethical, economic and legal aspects that must also be taken into consideration. Method After the standardization of the WBC labelling procedure (already published), a group of experts from the EANM Infection & Inflammation Committee developed and validated these guidelines based on published evidences. Results Here we describe image acquisition protocols, image display procedures and image analyses as well as image interpre- tation criteria for the use of radiolabelled WBC and monoclonal antigranulocyte antibodies. Clinical application for WBC and anti-G-mAb scintigraphy is also described. Conclusions These guidelines should be applied by all nuclear medicine centers in favor of a highly reproducible standardized practice. Keywords Infection .

  • Leukocytosis and Natural Killer Cell Function Parallel Neurobehavioral Fatigue Induced by 64 Hours of Sleep Deprivation
    Leukocytosis and natural killer cell function parallel neurobehavioral fatigue induced by 64 hours of sleep deprivation. D F Dinges, … , E Icaza, M T Orne J Clin Invest. 1994;93(5):1930-1939. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI117184. Research Article The hypothesis that sleep deprivation depresses immune function was tested in 20 adults, selected on the basis of their normal blood chemistry, monitored in a laboratory for 7 d, and kept awake for 64 h. At 2200 h each day measurements were taken of total leukocytes (WBC), monocytes, granulocytes, lymphocytes, eosinophils, erythrocytes (RBC), B and T lymphocyte subsets, activated T cells, and natural killer (NK) subpopulations (CD56/CD8 dual-positive cells, CD16- positive cells, CD57-positive cells). Functional tests included NK cytotoxicity, lymphocyte stimulation with mitogens, and DNA analysis of cell cycle. Sleep loss was associated with leukocytosis and increased NK cell activity. At the maximum sleep deprivation, increases were observed in counts of WBC, granulocytes, monocytes, NK activity, and the proportion of lymphocytes in the S phase of the cell cycle. Changes in monocyte counts correlated with changes in other immune parameters. Counts of CD4, CD16, CD56, and CD57 lymphocytes declined after one night without sleep, whereas CD56 and CD57 counts increased after two nights. No changes were observed in other lymphocyte counts, in proliferative responses to mitogens, or in plasma levels of cortisol or adrenocorticotropin hormone. The physiologic leukocytosis and NK activity increases during deprivation were eliminated by recovery sleep in a manner parallel to neurobehavioral function, suggesting that the immune alterations may be associated with biological pressure for sleep.
