Cytomegalovirus infection mimicking juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia showing hypersensitivity to granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor.

13 Dec 2009 We describe an infant with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection presenting as transient myeloproliferation resembling juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). The patient fulfilled the international diagnostic criteria of JMML, including hypersensitivity ... Read more...

Characterization of natural killer and natural killer-like T cells derived from ex vivo expanded and activated cord blood mononuclear cells: implications for adoptive cellular immunotherapy.

24 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: Cord blood (CB) is limited by the absence of available donor effector cells for post-unrelated CB transplantation adoptive cellular immunotherapy. We reported the ability to ex vivo expand (EvE) CB mononuclear cells (MNC) after short-term ... Read more...

Dynamics of alpha-globin locus chromatin structure and gene expression during erythroid differentiation of human CD34(+) cells in culture.

12 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study has been to establish serum-free culture conditions for ex vivo expansion and differentiation of human CD34(+) cells into erythroid lineage and to study the chromatin structure, gene expression, and ... Read more...
