Personalized Medicine's Coming of Age: One Drug, One Patient
Clin Cancer Res. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-23-2194. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA dendritic cell/myeloma fusion vaccine, given with lenalidomide and GM-CSF, did not result in a statistically significant increase in CR rates at 1-year post-transplant but was associated with a significant increase in circulating multiple myeloma-reactive lymphocytes indicative of tumor-specific immunity.PMID:37733765 | DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-23-2194

The history of vaginoplasty: Technical and sociological advances
Ann Chir Plast Esthet. 2023 Sep 19:S0294-1260(23)00075-4. doi: 10.1016/j.anplas.2023.07.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTechnical advances in gender-affirming genital surgery have allowed the modern surgeon to create a vagina, vulva and clitoris from a male sex. This surgery, commonly known as vaginoplasty, should in fact be identified as aidopoiesis, since it is not a question of improving an already existing vagina but of creating a female sex. Numerous technical advances made since 1930 throughout the world now offer a safe and proven surgical strategy for female genital gender affirmation. Most of these techniques a...

CD45-antibody-drug conjugate clears tissue resident myeloid cells from their niches enabling therapeutic adoptive cell transfer
bioRxiv. 2023 Sep 7:2023.09.05.556397. doi: 10.1101/2023.09.05.556397. Preprint.ABSTRACTTissue resident myeloid cells (TRM) in adults have highly variable lifespans and may be derived from early embryonic yolk sac, fetal liver or bone marrow. Some of these TRM are known pathogenic participants in congenital and acquired diseases. Myeloablative conditioning and hematopoietic stem cell transplant can replace long-lived brain TRM resulting in clinical improvements in metabolic storage diseases. With the advent of antibody-drug-conjugate (ADC) targeted cell killing as a cell selective means of transplant conditioning, we asses...

Therapeutic benefits of nitric oxide in lung transplantation
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Sep 19;167:115549. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115549. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLung transplantation is an evolutionary procedure from its experimental origin in the twentieth century and is now recognized as an established and routine life-saving intervention for a variety of end-stage pulmonary diseases refractory to medical management. Despite the success and continuous refinement in lung transplantation techniques, the widespread application of this important life-saving intervention is severely hampered by poor allograft quality offered from donors-after-brain-death. This has necessitated...

In vitro oxygen imaging of acellular and cell-loaded beta cell replacement devices
This article aims to establish the protocols and demonstrate a few examples of in vitro oxygen imaging of BAP devices using EPROI. All pO2 measurements were performed using a recently introduced 720 MHz/25 mT preclinical oxygen imager instrument, JIVA-25â„¢. We began by performing pO2 calibration of the biomaterials used in BAPs at 25 mT magnetic field since no such data exist. We compared the EPROI pO2 measurement with a single-point probe for a few selected materials. We also performed trityl OX071 toxicity studies with fibroblasts, as well as insulin-producing cells (beta TC6, MIN6, and human islet cells). Finally, we p...

Endothelial cell activation mediated by cold ischemia-released mitochondria is partially inhibited by defibrotide and impacts on early allograft function following liver transplantation
This study aimed to assess whether DAMPs present in the organ preservation solution (OPS) after cold ischemic storage (CIS) contribute to exacerbating the endothelial response to an inflammatory challenge and whether defibrotide treatment could counteract this effect. The activation of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was analyzed after challenging with end-ischemic OPS (eiOPS) obtained after CIS. Additionally, transwell assays were performed to study the ability of eiOPS to attract lymphocytes across the endothelium. The study revealed that eiOPS upregulated the expression of MCP-1 and IL-6 in HUVE...

Human CD34 < sup > + < /sup > -derived complete plasmacytoid and conventional dendritic cell vaccine effectively induces antigen-specific CD8 < sup > + < /sup > T cell and NK cell responses in vitro and in vivo
In this study, we aimed to dissect the phenotypic identity of these non-DCs and their potential immune modulatory functions on the potency of cDCs and pDCs in stimulating tumor-reactive CD8+ T and NK cell responses, in order to obtain rationale for clinical translation of our DC-complete vaccine. The non-DC compartment was heterogeneous and comprised of myeloid progenitors and (immature) granulocyte- and monocyte-like cells. Importantly, non-DCs potentiated toll-like receptor-induced DC maturation, as reflected by increased expression of co-stimulatory molecules and enhanced cDC-derived IL-12 and pDC-derived IFN-α product...

Disseminated Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infection in a Tertiary Referral Hospital in South Korea: A Retrospective Observational Study
CONCLUSION: D-NTM disease is rare in a tertiary referral center in South Korea. They occur primarily in immunocompromised patients at a relatively young age. Careful investigation of the underlying immune status is required when treating patients with D-NTM disease.PMID:37727920 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2023.0046

Pain management for liver transplant recipients
We present current evidence-based literature that reviews optimal pain management strategies for this challenging patient demographic.RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple studies have shown that thoracic epidurals provide superior pain control in open hepatic resections. Recent data suggests thoracic epidurals may be safely considered in select liver transplant recipients with normal preoperative coagulation status; however, this evidence is limited, and further studies are needed. When the risks of coagulopathy prohibit epidural placement, truncal blocks such as transversus abdominis plane blocks or quadratus lumborum blocks and abd...

Coagulation management during liver transplantation: monitoring and decision making for hemostatic interventions
Curr Opin Organ Transplant. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1097/MOT.0000000000001101. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: Rebalanced hemostasis describes the precarious balance of procoagulant and antithrombotic proteins in patients with severe liver failure. This review is aimed to discuss currently available coagulation monitoring tests and pertinent decision-making process for plasma coagulation factor replacements during liver transplantation (LT).RECENT FINDINGS: Contemporary viscoelastic coagulation monitoring systems have demonstrated advantages over conventional coagulation tests in assessing the patient's coagu...

Low-MFI (median fluorescence intensity) pre-transplant DSA (donor specific antibodies) leading to anamnestic antibody mediated rejection in live-related donor kidney transplantation
We present two cases of live-related donor kidney transplants (LDKTs) with low-MFI pre-transplant DSA values who experienced an early acute antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) as a result of an anamnestic antibody response by DSA against HLA class II antibodies. These results were confirmed by retesting of both pre-transplant and post-transplant archived sera from patients as well as freshly obtained donor cells. Our examples indicate a possible ABMR in patients with low MFI pre-transplant DSA. Reclassification of low vs. high-risk may be appropriate for some patients with low-MFI DSA."PMID:37730185 | DOI:10.1016/j.trim.2023.101931
