Recent advances in CAR-T cell therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia.

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a fatal and refractory haematologic cancer that primarily affects adults. It interferes with bone marrow cell proliferation. Patients have a 5 years survival rate of less than 30% despite the availability of several treatments, including chemotherapy, allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT), and receptor antagonist drugs. Allo-HSCT is the mainstay of acute myeloid leukaemia treatment. Although it does work, there are severe side effects, such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In recent years, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapies have made significant progress in the treatment of cancer. These engineered T cells can locate and recognize tumour cells in vivo and release a large number of effectors through immune action to effectively kill tumour cells. CAR-T cells are among the most effective cancer treatments because of this property. CAR-T cells have demonstrated positive therapeutic results in the treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia, according to numerous clinical investigations. This review highlights recent progress in new targets for AML immunotherapy, and the limitations, and difficulties of CAR-T therapy for AML.

Efficiency measurement and inefficiency analysis of low-carbon logistics in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, China.

Under the dual-carbon goals, enhancing the green development level of logistics industry and realizing its low-carbon transformation are important issues that need to be solved urgently. Amidst the continuous escalation in the total energy consumption of the national logistics industry, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region has exhibited a favorable descending trajectory in this respect. It is necessary to investigate the underlying reasons. Based on the panel data from 2012 to 2021, the DEA and Malmquist index are employed to analyze the low-carbon logistics efficiency of the BTH region from both static and dynamic perspectives. Furthermore, the inefficiency analysis is conducted to identify the deficiencies of low-carbon logistics industry in this region. Results show that (1) from the static perspective, the development of low-carbon logistics industry in the BTH region is relatively unbalanced. Compared to Tianjin and Hebei, Beijing's low-carbon logistics efficiency is significantly lower, becoming the focal area for attention; (2) from the dynamic perspective, technological progress is the main reason for the fluctuation of total factor productivity in the BTH region and a constraining factor for further improvements; (3) from the results of inefficiency analysis, the forthcoming emphasis on low-carbon logistics in Beijing should be on optimizing the number of logistics practitioners, transportation efficiency, and energy efficiency. Economic output and energy efficiency are relatively vulnerable aspects in Tianjin and Hebei, respectively, warranting due consideration. The research results of this paper have important practical implications for better developing low-carbon logistics in the BTH region and leveraging its leading role nationwide.

Prognostic biomarker NRG2 correlates with autophagy and epithelial­mesenchymal transition in breast cancer.

Breast cancer (BRCA) is a leading cause of death in women worldwide, accounting for 31% of female cancer. Autophagy plays a crucial role in cancer progression, however, the function of autophagy-related gene neuroregulatory protein 2 (NRG2) in BRCA and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, the expression of the NRG2 gene in BRCA was significantly down-regulated compared with the normal controls. The low expression level of NRG2 was related to poor survival rate of BRCA. The receiver operating characteristic curve of NRG2 showed a good diagnostic value for distinguishing BRCA from normal tissues (AUC=0.932). GO-KEGG analysis and GSEA enrichment analysis showed that NRG2 and its regulated genes were enriched in autophagy-related and immune-related pathways, and NRG2 was positively correlated with a number of immune cells and immune checkpoint genes. In addition, knockdown of NRG2 significantly promoted the proliferation, invasion and migration of BRCA cells. The autophagy marker, LC3-II and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) marker, vimentin were increased, while P62 and E-cadherin were decreased in response to NRG2 depletion. The findings of the present study demonstrated that NRG2 acts as a tumor suppressor factor that contributes to the immune escape and anti-tumor immunity inhibition by regulating the pathological process of autophagy and EMT, suggesting that NRG2 could be used as a prognostic biomarker and clinical target for BRCA therapy.

Chronic sleep fragmentation impairs brain interstitial clearance in young wildtype mice.

Accumulating evidence shows that most chronic neurological diseases have a link with sleep disturbances, and that patients with chronically poor sleep undergo an accelerated cognitive decline. Indeed, a single-night of sleep deprivation may increase metabolic waste levels in cerebrospinal fluid. However, it remains unknown how chronic sleep disturbances in isolation from an underlying neurological disease may affect the glymphatic system. Clearance of brain interstitial waste by the glymphatic system occurs primarily during sleep, driven by multiple oscillators including arterial pulsatility, and vasomotion. Herein, we induced sleep fragmentation in young wildtype mice and assessed the effects on glymphatic activity and cognitive functions. Chronic sleep fragmentation reduced glymphatic function and impaired cognitive functions in healthy mice. A mechanistic analysis showed that the chronic sleep fragmentation suppressed slow vasomotion, without altering cardiac-driven pulsations. Taken together, results of this study document that chronic sleep fragmentation suppresses brain metabolite clearance and impairs cognition, even in the absence of disease.

A comprehensive analysis of the prognostic characteristics of microRNAs in breast cancer.

Both overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) are significant when determining a patient's prognosis for breast cancer (BC). The effect of DSS-related microRNAs on BC susrvival, however, is not well understood. Here, we spotted differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) in the TCGA database of BC DSS, identified eight DSS-related miRNAs, and constructed a risk model. AUC values at 1, 3, and 5 years were 0.852, 0.861, and 0.868, respectively, indicating a risk model's excellent prognostic prediction ability. Then, we validated miRNA roles in BC OS and finally defined miR-551b as an independently prognostic miRNA in BC. According to function analysis, miR-551b is strongly linked with the emergence and spread of cancer, including protein ubiquitination, intracellular protein transport, metabolic pathways, and cancer pathways. Moreover, we confirmed the low expression of miR-551b in BC tissue and cells. After miR-551b inhibition or overexpression, cell function was either dramatically increased or diminished, respectively, indicating that miR-551b could regulate BC proliferation, invasion, and migration. In conclusion, we thoroughly clarified BC-related miRNAs on DSS and OS and verified miR-551b as a crucial regulator in the development and prognosis of cancer. These results can offer fresh ideas for BC therapy.

An adjustable multistage resistance switching behavior of a photoelectric artificial synaptic device with a ferroelectric diode effect for neuromorphic computing.

Neuromorphic computing, which mimics biological neural networks, is widely regarded as the optimal solution for addressing the limitations of traditional von Neumann computing architecture. In this work, an adjustable multistage resistance switching ferroelectric Bi2FeCrO6 diode artificial synaptic device was fabricated using a sol-gel method with a simple process. The device exhibits nonlinearity in its electrical characteristics, demonstrating tunable multistage resistance switching behavior and a strong ferroelectric diode effect through the manipulation of ferroelectric polarization. One of its salient advantages resides in its capacity to dynamically regulate its polarization state in response to an external electric field, thereby facilitating the fine-tuning of synaptic connection strength while maintaining synaptic stability. The device is capable of accurately simulating the fundamental properties of biological synapses, including long/short-term plasticity, paired-pulse facilitation, and spike-timing-dependent plasticity. Additionally, the device exhibits a distinctive photoelectric response and is capable of inducing synaptic plasticity by light signal activation. The utilization of a femtosecond laser for the scrutiny of carrier transport mechanisms imparts profound insights into the intricate dynamics governing the optical memory effect. Furthermore, utilizing a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture, the recognition accuracy of the MNIST and fashion MNIST datasets was improved to 95.6% and 78%, respectively, through the implementation of improved random adaptive algorithms. These findings present a new opportunity for utilizing Bi2FeCrO6 materials in the development of artificial synapses for neuromorphic computation.

Improving the sensing sensitivity of silver nanoparticle-based colorimetric biosensors from the point of salt.

The sensing sensitivity was improved for silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)-based colorimetric biosensors by using the most suitable salt to induce AgNPs aggregation. As for the salt composed of low-affinity anion and monovalent cation, the cation-dependent charge screening effect was the driving force for AgNPs aggregation. Apart from the charge screening effect, both the bridging of multivalent cation to the surface ligand of AgNP and the interaction between anion and Ag contributed to inducing AgNPs aggregation. Considering the higher aggregation efficiency of AgNPs resulted in a narrower sensing range, salt composed of low-affinity anion and monovalent cation was recommended for AgNPs-based colorimetric analysis, which was confirmed by fourfold higher sensitivity of DNA-21 detection using NaF than NaCl. This work inspires further thinking on improving the sensing performance of metal nanomaterials-based sensors from the point of colloidal surface science.

Synergistic vacancy engineering of Co/MnO@NC catalyst for superior oxygen reduction reaction in liquid/solid zinc-air batteries.

The pursuit of efficient and economically viable catalysts for liquid/solid-state zinc-air batteries (ZABs) is of paramount importance yet presents formidable challenge. Herein, we synthesized a vacancy-rich cobalt/manganese oxide catalyst (Co/MnO@NC) stabilized on a nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon (NC) nanosphere matrix by leveraging hydrothermal and high-temperature pyrolysis strategy. The optimized Co/MnO@NC demonstrates fast reaction kinetics and large limiting current densities comparable to commercial Pt/C in alkaline electrolyte for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Moreover, the Co/MnO@NC serves as an incredible cathode material for both liquid and flexible solid-state ZABs, delivering impressive peak power densities of 217.7 and 63.3 mW cm-2 and robust long-term stability (459 h), outperforming the state-of-the-art Pt/C and majority of the currently reported catalysts. Research indicates that the superior performance of the Co/MnO@NC catalyst primarily stems from the synergy between the heightened electrical conductivity of metallic Co and the regulatory capacity of MnO on adsorbed oxygen intermediates. In addition, the abundance of vacancies regulates the electronic configuration, and superhydrophilicity facilitates efficient electrolyte diffusion, thereby effectively ensuring optimal contact between the active site and reactants. Besides, the coexisting NC layer avoids the shedding of active sites, resulting in high stability. This work provides a viable approach for designing and advancing high-performance liquid/solid-state ZABs, highlighting the great potential of energy storage technology.

AAAKB: A manually curated database for tracking and predicting genes of Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), an extremely dangerous vascular disease with high mortality, causes massive internal bleeding due to aneurysm rupture. To boost the research on AAA, efforts should be taken to organize and link the information about AAA-related genes and their functions. Currently, most researchers screen through genetic databases manually, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Here, we developed "AAAKB" a manually curated knowledgebase containing genes, SNPs and pathways associated with AAA. In order to facilitate researchers to further explore the mechanism network of AAA, AAAKB provides predicted genes that are potentially associated with AAA. The prediction is based on the protein interaction information of genes collected in the database, and the random forest algorithm (RF) is used to build the prediction model. Some of these predicted genes are differentially expressed in patients with AAA, and some have been reported to play a role in other cardiovascular diseases, illustrating the utility of the knowledgebase in predicting novel genes. Also, AAAKB integrates a protein interaction visualization tool to quickly determine the shortest paths between target proteins. As the first knowledgebase to provide a comprehensive catalog of AAA-related genes, AAAKB will be an ideal research platform for AAA. Database URL: http://www.lqlgroup.cn:3838/AAAKB/.

The Rate of Infusion Represents an Important Aspect of Administering Anticancer Agents.

Background: Infusion rate is one of the essential elements that should be included in all intravenous orders. Patients may experience adverse consequences or risks associated with inappropriate infusion. Meanwhile, there is growing pressure on the chemotherapy unit to deliver treatment quickly, efficiently, and safely, and thus it is very necessary to improve the chemotherapy process and service to cancer patients. Clinicians should consider how to further standardize infusion therapy, and innovate new infusion strategies to increase efficacy, reduce toxicity, improve patient satisfaction and save health resource costs. Sporadic studies have evaluated the effects of infusion rates of anticancer agents on clinical outcomes, economic benefits, and administration efficiency. However, an update review has not been available. Methods: Relevant literature was identified by search of PubMed until September 2023. Results: Infusion rates may have significant effect on the efficacy of anticancer agents (e.g., methotrexate, fluorouracil, and arsenic trioxide). Slow infusion is safer for platinum compounds, doxorubicin and carmustine, whereas fast infusion is safer than slow infusion of gemcitabine. Optimal flow rates of paclitaxel and fluorouracil are based on the balance between multiple risks of toxicity. Optimal infusion rate may bring economic benefits. If efficacy and safety are not compromised, shortened infusion may result in higher patient satisfaction, improved institutional efficiency and more nursing time available for other activities (e.g., biosimilar products, endostar). Other concerns about infusion rate include clinical indications (eg, paclitaxel and rituximab, methotrexate), severity and type of hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., platinum compounds), formulation features (e.g., paclitaxel, doxorubicin), and genetic polymorphism (e.g., gemcitabine, methotrexate). Conclusion: The latest knowledge of infusion rate concerns will enhance the appropriateness and accuracy in intravenous administration. Interdisciplinary teams should collaborate and implement relevant risk management and healthcare policy. It is worthwhile to conduct comparative studies of intravenous therapy with different infusion speeds.

Melatonin alleviates depression-like behaviors and cognitive dysfunction in mice by regulating the circadian rhythm of AQP4 polarization.

Depression is a common chronic psychiatric illness, which is resistant to medical treatments. While melatonin may alleviate certain depression symptoms, evidence for its efficacy against core symptoms is lacking. Here, we tested a mechanism whereby melatonin rescues the behavioral outcomes of the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) mouse model of depression. CUMS mice showed depressive behaviors to tail suspension, open field behavior, and sucrose preference test, and cognitive dysfunction in the Morris water maze. Impairments in these measures were relieved by melatonin treatment. Moreover, CUMS mice had impaired glymphatic function across the sleep-wake cycle due to the astrocytic loss and disturbance of circadian regulation of the polarized expression of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) water channels in perivascular astrocytes. EEG results in CUMS mice showed a reduced total sleep time and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, due to sleep fragmentation in the light phase. CUMS mice lost the normal rhythmic expressions of circadian proteins Per2, Cry2, Bmal1, Clock, and Per1. However, the melatonin treatment restored glymphatic system function and the polarization of AQP4, while improving sleep structure, and rectifying the abnormal expression of Per2, Bmal1, Clock, and Per1 in CUMS mice. Interestingly, Per2 expression correlated negatively with the polarization of AQP4. Further studies demonstrated that Per2 directed the location of AQP4 expression via interactions with the α-dystrobrevin (Dtna) subunit of AQP4 in primary cultured astrocytes. In conclusion, we report a new mechanism whereby melatonin improves depression outcomes by regulating the expression of the circadian protein Per2, maintaining the circadian rhythm of astrocytic AQP4 polarization, and restoring glymphatic function.

Immunomodulatory activity and protective effect of a capsular polysaccharide in Caenorhabditis elegans, isolated from Lactobacillus fermentum GBJ.

A capsular polysaccharide, namely CPS-2, was isolated from Lactobacillus fermentum GBJ, purified using DEAE-52 anion exchange chromatography, and structurally characterized. We found that CPS-2 is homogenous, has an average molecular weight of 377 KDa, and is mainly composed of galactose and glucose at a molar ratio of 1.54:1.00. Its backbone comprises α-D-Galp-(1 â†’ 3), α-D-Galp-(1 â†’ 3,6), ß-D-Glcp-(1 â†’ 2), ß-D-Galp-(1 â†’ 6), and α-D-Galp-(1 â†’ 4) residues with a side chain of ß-D-Glcp-(1→). CPS-2 exerts an immunomodulatory effect by improving the proliferation and phagocytosis of macrophage RAW264.7 and promoting the secretion of NO and cytokines. The maximum secretion levels of IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α were 1.96-, 0.11-, 0.22-, and 0.46-fold higher than those of the control, respectively. Furthermore, CPS-2 could significantly enhance the antioxidant system, extend lifespan, and improve stress tolerance of Caenorhabditis elegans at both exposure doses of 31.25 and 62.5 µg/mL. The average lifespan of nematodes reached a maximum in the 62.5 µg/mL-treated group after 10.39 days, 6.56 h, and 23.56 h in normal, oxidative stress, and heat shock environment, with extension percentages of 16.61 %, 43.23 %, and 15.77 %, respectively; therefore, CPS-2 displays an anti-aging effect. The significant bioactivity of CPS-2 promotes its application as a promising immunomodulatory and anti-aging ingredient in the food or pharmaceutical field.

[Effect of Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Dose in Grafts on CMV Infection after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) dose in grafts and the occurrence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). METHODS: The clinical data of 80 children who received allo-HSCT in Children's Hospital of Soochow University from August 20, 2020 to June 11, 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Proportions of DC subsets and T-cell subsets in grafts were detected by flow cytometry in order to calculate infused cell dose of each cell. Weekly monitoring of CMV-DNA copies in peripheral blood for each child were performed after transplantation. The last follow-up date was December 31, 2021. RESULTS: All the children gained hematopoietic reconstitution. CMV infection was observed in 51 children (63.8%±5.4%) within the first 100 days after transplantation, including 2 cases developing CMV disease. Univariate analysis indicated that infused doses of DC and pDC were significantly associated with CMV infection within 100 days after allo-HSCT (P <0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that a high dose infusion of pDC was an independent protective factor for CMV infection within 100 days after allo-HSCT (P <0.05). By the end of follow-up, 7 children died of transplantation-related complications, including 2 deaths from CMV disease, 2 deaths from extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease, and 3 deaths from capillary leak syndrome. The overall survival rate was 91.2%. CONCLUSION: The pDC in grafts may be associated with early infection of CMV after allo-HSCT, while a high infused pDC dose may serve as a protective factor for CMV infection after transplantation.

In vitro simulated fecal fermentation of mixed grains on short-chain fatty acid generation and its metabolized mechanism.

In vitro simulated digestion and fecal fermentation were performed to investigate the influence of mixed grains on gut microbes. In addition, the key metabolic pathways and enzymes associated with short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were explored. The mixed grains exhibited an observable regulatory effect on the composition and metabolism of intestinal microorganisms, especially in probiotics, such as Bifidobacterium spp., Lactobacillus spp., and Faecalibacterium spp. WR (wheat + rye), WB (wheat + highland barley) and WO (wheat + oats) tended to generate lactate and acetate, which are related to Sutterella, Staphylococcus, etc. WQ (wheat + quinoa) induced high propionate and butyrate accumulation by consuming lactate and acetate, mainly through Roseburia inulinivorans, Coprococcus catus and Anaerostipes sp., etc. Moreover, bacteria enriched in different mixed grain groups regulated the expression of pivotal enzymes in metabolic pathways and then affected the generation of SCFAs. These results provide new knowledge on the characteristics of intestinal microbial metabolism in different mixed grain substrates.

Activation of ventral tegmental area vesicular GABA transporter (Vgat) neurons alleviates social defeat stress-induced anxiety in APP/PS1 mice.

Introduction: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that results in cognitive impairment and is often accompanied by anxiety. In this study, we investigated whether the activation of VTAVgat neurons could reduce anxiety in APP/PS1 mice. We hypothesized that acute social defeat stress (SDS) would lead to anxiety in APP/PS1 mice, and that the activation of VTAVgat neurons would alleviate this anxiety. Methods: We exposed APP/PS1 mice to acute SDS and assessed anxiety using the open field test and elevated plus-arm test. Activated VTAVgat neurons was tested by cfos staining. Sleep quality was detected using electroencephalogram after SDS or non-SDS procedure. Sleep duration, sleep latency, and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) percentage were analyzed. VTAVgat neurons were chemogenetically activated by deschloroclozapine. Results: Our results showed that acute SDS led to anxiety in APP/PS1 mice, as evidenced by increased anxiety-related behaviors in the open field and elevated plus-arm tests. Activation of VTAVgat neurons by SDS led to an increase in sleep duration, primarily due to a decrease in sleep latency and an increase in NREMs. However, the quality of sleep was poor. Chemogenetical activation of VTAVgat neurons improved sleep quality and relieved SDS-induced anxiety. Furthermore, the anxiety state correlated negatively with sleep duration and NREM percentage and correlated positively with theta power density in APP/PS1 mice. Discussion: Our study provides evidence that the activation of VTAVgat neurons alleviates SDS-induced anxiety in APP/PS1 mice, suggesting that poor sleep quality may exacerbate anxiety in AD. These findings may have important implications for the treatment of anxiety in AD, as targeting VTAVgat neurons could be a potential therapeutic approach.

Human PARP1 substrates and regulators of its catalytic activity: An updated overview.

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a key DNA damage sensor that is recruited to damaged sites after DNA strand breaks to initiate DNA repair. This is achieved by catalyzing attachment of ADP-ribose moieties, which are donated from NAD+, on the amino acid residues of itself or other acceptor proteins. PARP inhibitors (PARPi) that inhibit PARP catalytic activity and induce PARP trapping are commonly used for treating BRCA1/2-deficient breast and ovarian cancers through synergistic lethality. Unfortunately, resistance to PARPi frequently occurs. In this review, we present the novel substrates and regulators of the PARP1-catalyzed poly (ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylatison) that have been identified in the last 3 years. The overall aim is the presentation of protein interactions of potential therapeutic intervention for overcoming the resistance to PARPi.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Picromerus lewisi Scott 1874 (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae: Asopinae).

Picromerus lewisi Scott (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is a widely used natural enemy, through this study, we proved that its complete mitochondrial genome of it had similar characteristics to those of other Hemiptera. The mitogenome of P. lewisi is a circular molecule of 18,123 bp with 74.0% A + T content, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and one control region. Phylogenetic tree based on 13 PCGs from 17 Panheteroptera species (two species of the Cimicomorpha are used as outgroup, 15 species belong to the Pentatomomorpha) suggested that P. lewisi has a closer relationship with E. thomsoni within Pentatomidae family.

Association between CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells in allogeneic grafts and acute graft-versus-host disease in children undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: A single-center study.

BACKGROUND: Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We examined the association between the composition of the cell subsets present in allogeneic grafts (allografts) and the occurrence and severity of aGVHD in pediatric patients. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 80 consecutive pediatric patients undergoing allo-HSCT at our center. RESULTS: Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that the number of CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells in allografts were the two highest risk factors associated with II-IV aGVHD. Using receiver operating characteristic analysis, the cutoff levels of the allo-HSCT cell doses were used to divide the recipients into low-dose and high-dose groups. The 100-day cumulative incidence of II-IV aGVHD in the high-dose CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells group was significantly higher than that of the low-dose group (CD34+: 57% vs. 29%, p = 0.009; CD3+: 63% vs. 18%, p < 0.001). No other clinical factors or cell subsets correlated with aGVHD incidence. CONCLUSIONS: Our analysis indicates that the CD34+ and CD3+ T-cell numbers in the allografts could be the risk factors for the development of severe aGVHD (level II-IV). Further studies should aim to optimize the critical number of CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells to reduce the risk of severe aGVHD occurrence in pediatric patients.

The frequencies of lymphocyte subsets on "day 30″ correlate with the clinical outcome of pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

We aimed to determine the relationship between lymphocyte subsets on day 30 (D30) and prognosis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in children. We retrospectively examined the clinical outcomes and lymphocyte subsets on D30 after allo-HSCT in 115 pediatric patients at the Children's Hospital of Soochow University between January 2016 and June 2019. Measurements were performed using flow cytometry on D30. Lymphocyte subsets were compared among the umbilical cord blood (UCB) (n = 22), HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD) (n = 14), haploidentical donor transplantation (HID) (n = 57), and unrelated donor transplantation (UD) (n = 22) groups. The relationships between the frequencies and counts of lymphocyte subsets and clinical outcomes were analyzed. T and B cell counts were the highest in the MSD group compared to the other groups, and natural killer cell counts were the highest in the UCB group. Lymphocyte subsets on D30 after allo-HSCT were correlated with the occurrence of acute (aGVHD) and chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD). A high frequency of B cells (≥4.65%) was associated with the development of severe aGVHD. High frequencies of CD4+T (≥10.25%) were correlated with extensive cGVHD. Moreover, a high frequency of CD4+T cells (≥9.80%) was correlated with GVHD-free and failure-free survival (GFFS) after allo-HSCT. However, on D30, there were no statistically significant correlations between viral infections and lymphocyte subsets. The frequencies of lymphocyte subsets on D30 after allo-HSCT are good indicators of prognosis after allo-HSCT in children.
