Effect of hematologic response on outcome of patients undergoing transplantation for primary amyloidosis: importance of achieving a complete response.

abstract：:Our preliminary results suggest the existence of quantitative and qualitative differences in immune cells and type1 and type2 cytokines between granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) primed bone marrow (G-BM) and G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood grafts (G-PB). Our findings suggest that lower T-cell hyporesponsi...
