Meyer, DO, MPH Slide 1: Title Slide Hello, my name is Erin Meyer. I am the medical director of apheresis and associate medical director of Transfusion Services at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus Ohio. Welcome to this Pearl of Laboratory Medicine on “Transfusion Support in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant or HSCT.” Slide 2: Transfusion Support for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) The objectives of my talk are a brief overview of the different types of HSCT followed by a review of the sources of HSCT available and transfusion thresholds for patients receiving the different types of HSCT. Finally, I will discuss ABO-incompatible HSCT with a focus on the complications of and transfusion support for each possible ABO-incompatible combination. Hematopoietic stem cells came to light after the dropping of the atomic bombs in 1945. People who survived the initial explosions later died of bone marrow failure from radiation. A series of sentinel experiments by Till and McCulloch in the 1960s then showed that transfer of bone marrow cells from donor mice into lethally irradiated recipient mice resulted in the formation of colonies of myeloid, erythroid, and megakaryocytic cells in the recipient’s spleen approximately 7-14 days later. Stem cells have two very unique properties: the ability to self-renew and the ability to regenerate. The field of stem cell biology has only grown and HSCTs are able to be transplanted now to recipients to help a variety of diseases.

  • Hematopoietic Stem Cell Therapy) in MS
    FAQ About HSCT (Hematopoietic Stem Cell Therapy) in MS There is growing evidence that autologous HSCT is not for everyone with MS but may be highly effective for people with relapsing MS who meet very specific characteristics. The National Medical Advisory Committee of the National MS Society has written an article reviewing evidence related to the optimal use of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT, commonly known as bone marrow transplants) for the treatment of specific types of relapsing multiple sclerosis. The committee’s findings are published in JAMA Neurology (online October 26, 2020). Q. What is HSCT for multiple sclerosis? A. HSCT (Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation) attempts to “reboot” the immune system, which is responsible for damaging the brain and spinal cord in MS. In HSCT for MS, hematopoietic (blood cell-producing) stem cells, which are derived from a person’s own (“autologous”) bone marrow or blood, are collected and stored, and the rest of the individual’s immune cells are depleted by chemotherapy. Then the stored hematopoietic stem cells are reintroduced to the body. The new stem cells migrate to the bone marrow and over time produce new white blood cells. Eventually they repopulate the body with immune cells. Q. What is the idea behind autologous HSCT (aHSCT) for MS? A. The goal of aHSCT is to reset the immune system and stop the inflammation that contributes to active relapsing MS. Q. Is aHSCT an FDA-approved therapy option for people with MS? A. The medications and procedures used in aHSCT are already approved by the FDA. Publication of the outcomes from well-controlled clinical studies of aHSCT therapy will encourage greater acceptance and use by the medical community.

Here, we combined single cell profiling, deep-learning, mathematical modelling and in vivo functional studies to explore how hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) division patterns evolve with age. We trained an artificial neural network (ANN) to accurately identify cell types in the hematopoietic hierarchy and predict their age from their gene expression patterns.

Acrylic, latex, enamel on canvas printed with an image of myxofibrosarcoma with metastases to the artist’s lung, 26" × 36". Transfusion Support Issues in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Claudia S. Cohn, MD, PhD Background: Patients receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation require extensive transfusion support until red blood cell and platelet engraftment occurs. Rare but predictable complications may arise when the transplanted stem cells are incompatible with the native ABO type of the patient. Immediate and delayed hemolysis is often seen. Methods: A literature review was performed and the results from peer-reviewed papers that contained reproducible findings were integrated. Results: A strong body of clinical evidence has developed around the common complications experienced with ABO-incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. These complications are discussed and the underlying pathophysiology is explained. General treatment options and guidelines are enumerated. Conclusions: ABO-incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantations are frequently performed. Immune-related hemolysis is a commonly encountered complication; therefore, health care professionals must recognize the signs of immune-mediated hemolysis and understand the various etiologies that may drive the process.
