abstract：BACKGROUND:Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT cells) may suppress graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic transplantation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic potential of iNKT cells from major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-mismatched donors for preventing GVHD after allogeneic...

abstract：BACKGROUND:Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is usually classified as either warm or cold type. During the past few decades, mixed types (Mxs) have also been described in a number of cases (6%-8% of AIHA), often without serologic data to support the diagnosis. In this study, we demonstrate that the incidence of Mx AIH...
