Bone Marrow-Derived Buffy Coat Can Supplement the Bone Marrow Stimulation Technique for Articular Cartilage Repair
" Bone Marrow-Derived Buffy Coat Can Supplement the Bone Marrow Stimulation Technique for Articular Cartilage Repair Bone marrow stimulation (BMS) has been used as a popular operating technique to repair defect of knee articular cartilage. However, the regenerated tissue from BMS is known as a …

Transplant anxieties : discourses about bone marrow
… examines the various discourses in the Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) network in South Africa. The organisations in the network which were observed using participant observation were the South African Bone Marrow Registry and the Sunflower Fund to complement this, the researcher …

Immune reconstitution post bone marrow transplantation
… immune reconstitution following T-cell depleted bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and to compare this with the recovery following autologous grafts. to document the cell surface expression of CD95 in an attempt to comment on the role played by FAS mediated apoptosis in …

Bone marrow transplantation in infancy and childhood
During a bone marrow transplant there is a major risk of infection either due to the specific disease or as a result of the required preconditioning. Severely neutropenic patients benefit from receiving prophylactic antimicrobial agents within a protected environment and the thesis opens with a …

Mechanisms underlying enhanced bone marrow adipogenesis in diabetes
… shown that diabetes enhances adipogenesis in the bone marrow and reduces the number of marrow-resident vascular regenerative stem cells. In this study, I have determined the mechanisms of deleterious bone marrow adipogenesis, which may alter the cellular composition of the marrow and lead to the …

Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cell for Equine Joint Disease
… but potentially deleterious side effects. Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMNC) are a rich source of macrophage progenitors that are anti-inflammatory and promote inflammation resolution. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of intra-articular BMNC therapy to improve …

The role of HLA-G in bone marrow transplantation
The human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G has been considered to be an important tolerogeneic molecule playing an essential role in maternal-fetal tolerance, which constitutes the perfect example of successful physiological immunotolerance of semi-allografts. In this context, we investigated the …

The Lived Experience of a Bone Marrow Transplant Survivor
Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) has progressed from an experimental therapy to a viable treatment for cancer. While the prospects for long-term survival following the procedure has increased, little is known about the quality of this survival. The present study was intended to explore the …

Targeted Multistage Delivery of Nanoparticles to The Bone Marrow
<p>Bone marrow is a target organ site involved in multiple diseases including myeloproliferative disorders and hematologic malignancies and metastases from breast and prostate. Most of these diseases are characterized with poor quality of life, and the treatment options are only palliative due to …

The Characterization of Hematopoiesis in Murine Fetal Bone Marrow
… before reaching their final resting place in the bone marrow (BM). Many resources have been invested in understanding the roles of the different niches HSCs encounter along their journey. A greater understanding of HSC niche regulation could provide clues for HSC maintenance and expansion in …

Bone Marrow Charges in Individuals With Extramedullary Malignant Neoplasms
The problem of changes in the bone marrow of patients with extramedullary malignant neoplasms was inspired by the finding of bronchogenic carcinoma in an individual, who, during life, had a severe anemia and a marked leukemoid blood picture with eosinophilia. Diagnostic procedures and therapy were …

Psycho-social problems identified by adult bone marrow transplant survivors
Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) offers many patients who are diagnosed with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma and aplastic anaemia the opportunity of increased survival. Chemotherapy is one of the most common forms of treatment for cancer patients en-route to BMT, which is often a concomitant stressor …

Advancing techniques for engineered tissue models of the bone marrow
… in organisms. These rare cells reside within the bone marrow and are the functional units of hematopoietic stem cell transplants, also known as bone marrow transplants. Methods to model the bone marrow and expand hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo are constantly evolving; however, models that …

Cellular and molecular immunotherapeutics derived from the bone marrow stroma
The bone marrow contains a multipotent stromal cell, commonly referred to as a mesenchymal stem cell (MSC). There has been recent interest in the clinical use of MSCs for cell-based therapy because: (1) bone marrow aspiration is a routine method used in medicine thereby allowing for easy …

A chromosomal analysis of bone marrow cultures of inbred mice
… to study variation's in chromosome number from bone marrow cells. Chromosome counts were made from 20 animals at each level of inbreeding except at the 73 percent level where only 13 animals were available. The chromosome number was determined for 24 countable cells per animal at each level, and …

The Effects of Leucogenenol On Benzene Induced Bone Marrow Suppression In Rabbits
The problem. These experiments were to determine the extent of leucocytosis and antibody production, stimulated by leucogenenol, in an animal whose white blood cells have been reduced by the action of benzene. Procedure. The white blood cell counts of rabbits were depressed to 1500 ± 500 cells per …

Bone Marrow Derived Progenitor Cells and Their Contributions to the Thymic Stroma
… EpCAM+ cells are present in both the thymus and bone marrow (BM), suggesting that the CD45+EpCAM+ population may be recruited from a hematopoietic derived population in the BM, providing an additional source of progenitor cells that contribute to the maintenance of the thymic stroma. …
