Abstract
Given the increasing use of novel targeted therapies, dermatologists are constantly confronted with novel cutaneous side effects of these agents. A rapid diagnosis and appropriate management of these side effects are crucial to prevent impairment of the patients' quality of life and interruptions of essential cancer treatments. Immune checkpoint and EGFR inhibitors are frequently used targeted therapies for various malignancies and are associated with a distinct spectrum of cutaneous adverse events. Exanthematous drug eruptions represent a particular diagnostic challenge in these patients. Immune checkpoint inhibitors can elicit a plethora of immune-related exanthemas, most commonly maculopapular, lichenoid, and psoriasiform eruptions. Additionally, autoimmune bullous dermatoses and exanthemas associated with connective tissue diseases may arise. In cases of severe, atypical or therapy-resistant presentations an extensive dermatological investigation including a skin biopsy is recommended. Topical and systemic steroids are the mainstay of treatment. Papulopustular eruptions represent the major cutaneous adverse effect of EGFR inhibitor therapy, occurring in up to 90 % of patients within the first two weeks of therapy, depending on the agent. Besides topical antibiotics and steroids, oral tetracyclines are the first choice in systemic treatment and can also be used as prophylaxis.

Abstract
The 2007 Banff working classification of skin-containing Tissue Allograft Pathology addressed only acute T cell-mediated rejection in skin. We report the longitudinal long-term histological follow-up of six face transplant recipients, focusing on chronic and mucosal rejection. We identified three patterns suggestive of chronic rejection (lichen planus-like, vitiligo-like and scleroderma-like). Four patients presented lichen planus-like and vitiligo-like chronic rejection at 52 ± 17 months posttransplant with severe concomitant acute T cell-mediated rejection. After lichen planus-like rejection, two patients developed scleroderma-like alterations. Graft vasculopathy with C4d deposits and de novo DSA led to subsequent graft loss in one patient. Chronic active rejection was frequent and similar patterns were noted in mucosae. Concordance between 124 paired skin and mucosal biopsies acute rejection grades was low (κ = 0.2, p = .005) but most grade 0/I mucosal rejections were associated with grade 0/I skin rejections. We defined discordant (grade≥II mucosal rejection and grade 0/I skin rejection) (n = 55 [70%]) and concordant (grade≥II rejection in both biopsies) groups. Mucosal biopsies of the discordant group displayed lower intra-epithelial GranzymeB/FoxP3 ratios suggesting a less aggressive phenotype (p = .08). The grading system for acute rejection in mucosa may require phenotyping. Whether discordant infiltrates reflect a latent allo-immune reaction leading to chronic rejection remains an open question.

Abstract
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare systemic autoimmune disease associated with a high mortality. The first histopathological hallmarks are vasculopathy and inflammation, followed by fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. The molecular and cellular mechanisms are incompletely understood. Rodent models provide important insights into the pathogenesis of SSc and are a mainstay for the development of novel targeted therapies. Here we describe the mechanistic insights of inducible and genetic models, and also discuss in detail the limitations and pitfalls of the most frequently used SSc mouse models. We also describe protocols for running the established bleomycin-induced scleroderma skin fibrosis model.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) causes significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of children diagnosed with CMV GI disease after allo-HSCT. This was a retrospective cohort study of patients <19 years old that underwent allo-HSCT during an 11-year period. Of the 756 patients, 55.5% (n = 420) experienced post-transplant CMV DNAemia, 2.9% (n = 22) were diagnosed with proven CMV GI diseases, and the highest incidence was found in familial mismatched donors (5.6%, P = 0.029). CMV GI disease was diagnosed <100 days of transplant in 68.2% (n = 15/22), and 13.6% (n = 3/22) did not have concurrent CMV DNAemia. Patients were divided into five groups based on the patterns of CMV viremia initiation and duration post-HSCT. At 3 months post-transplant, lower CD4+ (P = 0.006) and CD8+ (P = 0.011) T-cell counts were observed in patients with waxing and waning CMV viral load titers >100 days post-transplant (groups 1-3) compared to those with CMV DNAemia only prior to 100 days post-transplant and those without concurrent CMV DNAemia (groups 4-5). A higher 1-year all-cause mortality was observed in groups 1-3 compared to groups 4-5 (42.8% vs. 0%; P = 0.051). Active surveillance and aggressive management of CMV reactivation is crucial, especially in children with delayed CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell reconstitution after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hematopoietic stem cell allograft is a treatment for patients with severe constitutional or acquired hematopoietic system diseases. This act is always linked to complications requiring multidisciplinary care. Our study describes the post-allograft cutaneous complications. METHODS A prospective study was conducted at the Hematology department of "20 Août Hospital" in Casablanca during a period going from January 2018 to December 2020; including all patients who presented acute or chronic cutaneous complications post-allograft. RESULTS Twenty-five patients were included. All patients received induction chemotherapy (Busulfan/Fludarabine or Busulfan/Melphalan). A skin infection was found in 8 patients : four cases of Malassezia folliculitis, one case of perineal zona, one case of genital herpes, one case of varicella and one case of Candida sepsis. The acute graft versus host reaction was found in 3 patients, revealed by an erythematous rash all over the body. The chronic graft versus host reaction was found in five patients on a lichenoid form. Nine patients had a hyperpigmentation of the folds followed by detachment in the same areas, concluding to a Busulfan toxidermy. DISCUSSION Hematopoietic stem cell allograft has many complications. The literature mainly specifies hematological and digestive complications, while skin complications are little described. Our series is special by reporting different types and mechanisms of skin complications that can occur; with a predominance of skin graft-on-host reactions and infections. It also reports an unusual Busulfan toxidermy.

Abstract
Graft-versus-host disease is a common complication following allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation that can affect multiple organ systems, including the eyes. Ocular GVHD (oGVHD) is characterized by a T cell-mediated immune response that leads to immune cell infiltration and inflammation of ocular structures, including the lacrimal glands, eyelids, cornea and conjunctiva. oGVHD has a significant negative impact on visual function and quality of life and successful management requires a multi-disciplinary approach with frequent monitoring. Here, we review the pathophysiology and clinical presentation of oGVHD, along with current therapeutic strategies based on our clinical experience and the reported literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute cutaneous graft-versus-host disease (acGVHD) following haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is common but difficult to distinguish from other causes of rash. Plasma elafin has been proposed as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of skin GVHD. AIM To evaluate the role of plasma elafin as a biomarker in acGVHD in an Indian population. METHODS Plasma elafin was evaluated in a prospective study of HSCT recipients, conducted over 2 years, taking measurements at baseline and at onset of skin rash after HSCT. Patients were categorized into those with GVHD rash, those with non-GVHD rash and those with no rash and the three groups were compared. RESULTS Two hundred and sixty-one patients with a median age of 16 years (range 1-61 years) and a male predominance (175 : 86 M/F) underwent HSCT during the study period: 56 patients in the GVHD group, 49 in the non-GVHD group and 156 in the no-rash group. The median baseline elafin was similar in all three groups. At the onset of rash, median elafin level was similar between GVHD and non-GVHD rash (34 549 vs. 32 077 pg/mL; P = 0.58) and between GVHD and no rash (34 549 vs. 26 197 pg/mL; P = 0.08). A rise in elafin from baseline was significantly different between GVHD and no rash (P < 0.001) but not between GVHD and non-GVHD rash (P = 0.44). CONCLUSION The utility of plasma elafin as a biomarker of skin GVHD is very limited. Plasma elafin, although elevated in cutaneous GVHD, is not helpful in distinguishing between GVHD rash and other causes of rash following HSCT.

Abstract
Objectives: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is a method used in the treatment of various genetic, immunological disorders, hematologic and solid organ malignancies. Graft versus Host Disease is one of the major and fatal complications of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. It is a systemic disease affecting five main areas: skin, gastrointestinal tract, liver, lung and hematopoietic system. Diagnosis of cutaneous Graft versus Host Disease is made by the correlation between clinical and histopathological findings of the patient. The present study aims to investigate the incidence of cutaneous graft versus Host Disease in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation patients in our center, to discuss the histopathological features and differential diagnosis of cutaneous graft versus Host Disease in the light of the literature. Methods: The pathology slides of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation patients who were diagnosed as graft versus Host Disease in our pathology department between January 2015 and January 2019 were re-evaluated. Epidermal and dermal histomorphological findings of the disease were classified; the patients’ clinical and demographic information was obtained from the files. The incidence of cutaneous Graft versusHost Disease was calculated. Results: In our center, between January 2015 and January 2019, 273 pediatric and 100 adult patients underwent allogeneic and 181 autologous bone marrow transplantation. Twenty-three patients who underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation had cutaneous Graft versus Host Disease whereas and 21 patients had gastrointestinal Graft versus Host Disease. The incidence of cutaneous and gastrointestinal Graft versus Host Disease was 16.1% whereas the incidence of cutaneous Graft versus Host Disease was 8.42%. The most common clinical differential diagnosis of cutaneous Graft versus Host Disease was drug reaction (74%). The most common epidermal histomorphologic finding in our cases was keratinocyte necrosis (87%). In our cases, the most common epidermal histomorphologic finding was keratinocyte necrosis (87%). This was followed by vacuolar degeneration in basal keratinocytes (63%), acanthosis and spongiosis (61%), respectively. The most common finding in the dermis was pigment incontinence (59%). Of the patients with Graft versus Host Disease, 56% had transplantation from unrelated donors, whereas 44% of them had transplantation from their relatives. Conclusion: Cutaneous Graft versus Host Disease is a common complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. It is associated with high mortality rates and has a significant negative impact on the patient’s quality of life. Dermatological early recognition of the disease; histopathological evaluation and verification with differential diagnosis plays a key role in preventing patient morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a potentially curative therapeutic strategy to treat several hematological malignancies and non-hematological malignancies. However, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a frequent and serious transplant-related complication which dramatically restrains the curative effect of allo-HSCT and a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in allogeneic HCT recipients. Effective prevention of GVHD mainly depends on the induction of peripheral immune tolerance. Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is a non-classical MHC class I molecule with a strong immunosuppressive function, which plays a prominent role in immune tolerance. HLA-G triggers different reactions depending on the activation state of the immune cells and system. It also exerts a long-term immune tolerance mechanism by inducing regulatory cells. In this present review, we demonstrate the immunomodulatory properties of human leukocyte antigen-G and highlight the role of HLA-G as an immune regulator of GVHD. Furthermore, HLA-G could also serve as a good predictor of GVHD and represent a new therapeutic target for GVHD.

Abstract
AIM We examined accuracy of nurses' clinical judgement of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) symptoms and related factors using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) for patients who developed chronic cutaneous GVHD after haematopoietic stem cell transplants. DESIGN Cross-sectional design using nationwide survey. METHODS A questionnaire survey based on Tanner's clinical judgement model to assess patients with chronic cutaneous GVHD using CTCAE was used. Free-text descriptions and statistical analyses of relationship between correct responses and demographic data were performed. RESULTS The rate of correct responses for main symptoms of skin GVHD was < 50%; there was no statistical significance between correct responses and demographic data, knowledge about GVHD and collaborative practice with physicians. The accuracy of cutaneous GVHD clinical judgements was not directly related to nurses' background. Educational opportunities that reinforce nurses' abilities to reflect on knowledge and experiences to interpret patient symptoms are essential for improving accuracy of clinical judgement.

Elafin as a Predictive Biomarker of Acute Skin Graft- Versus-Host Disease After Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation Using Post-Transplant High-Dose Cyclophosphamide. Front Immunol 2021; 12:516078. [PMID: 33679728 PMCID: PMC7933467 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.516078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2019] [Accepted: 01/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) has shown favorable results in the treatment of hematological malignancies. Despite the use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), graft versus host disease (GVHD) remains as one of the main complications in this setting. Since the skin appears affected in up to 80% of cases of acute GVHD (aGVHD), its prognosis and diagnosis are essential for the correct management of these patients. Plasma concentration of elafin, an elastase inhibitor produced by keratinocytes, has been described elevated at the diagnosis of skin GVHD, correlated with the grade of GVHD, and associated with an increased risk of death. In this study we explored elafin plasma levels in the largest series reported of T cell-replete haplo-HSCT with PTCy. Plasma samples drawn from 87 patients at days +15 and +30 were analyzed ("discovery cohort"). Elafin levels at days +15 were no associated with chronic GVHD, non-relapse mortality, relapse, therapy-resistant GVHD, or overall survival. In our series, elafin levels at day +30 were not associated with post-transplant complications. On the other hand, elafin plasma levels at day +15 were higher in patients with severe skin aGVHD (21,313 vs.14,974 pg/ml; p = 0.01). Of note, patients with higher elafin plasma levels at day +15 presented a higher incidence of stage III-IV skin aGVHD (HR = 18.9; p < 0.001). These results were confirmed (HR = 20.6; p < 0.001) in an independent group of patients (n = 62), i.e. the "validation cohort." These data suggest that measurement of elafin in patients undergoing haplo-HSCT with PTCy might be useful for an early identification of those patients who are at higher risk of suffering severe skin aGVHD and thus, improve their treatment and prognosis.

Abstract
Background Unproven stem cell treatments may involve serious health, personal, and financial considerations. Due to worldwide spread, illegal stem cell therapies have become a major public health problem. We have already witnessed numerous reports in the mass media of severe and occasionally even fatal outcomes after such therapies. However, there are only few scientifically documented cases in which the causality between stem cell therapy and side effects cannot be refuted. Case presentation Here we present a case report of a 48-year-old patient with serious side effects, including disseminated skin ulcers, hepatitis, and cardiomyopathy, with eventual fatal outcome following unproven stem cell treatment. Conclusions The case of the patient presented here draws attention to the worst possible outcome of stem cell tourism. To effectively combat this issue, professionals and patients should be empowered with the right knowledge on possible side effects.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is an immune mediated disorder affecting 30 - 70% of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT), and is a major cause of morbidity and non-relapse mortality (NRM) [1]. Dermatologists play a critical role in acute and chronic GVHD, as skin involvement is common and often the earliest involved site of disease [2]. Recent Findings GVHD shares clinical and histopathological features with a variety of other skin diseases, requiring thorough consideration of differential diagnoses in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients with lesions suggestive of cutaneous GVHD. Treatment considerations for GVHD are influenced by factors such as disease classification, overall grading, organ involvement, associated symptoms, and immunological anti-tumor effect. Several treatments are available and may be indicated as monotherapy or adjuvant therapy to allow faster withdrawal or tapering of immunosuppression. While corticosteroids are often first line therapy, oral ruxolitinib has been recently approved for treatment of steroid-refractory aGHVD, and oral ibrutinib has been approved for steroid-refractory cGHVD. Summary This article provides current clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic considerations relevant to the hospitalist for both acute and chronic mucocutaneous GVHD. Optimal inpatient management of these diseases requires an interdisciplinary team.

Abstract
Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is a commonly occurring immunological reaction and frequent complication following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Its highly diverse manifestations including skin involvement as the most common appearance of GvHD, can dramatically influence patient's quality of life, in particular in the chronic stage, in addition to patient's decreased survival outcome. Hence, the role of the dermatologist has become very crucial in an interdisciplinary setting, particularly since appearances of GvHD in the skin can be multifaceted and challenging. Clinical manifestation of the acute GvHD (aGvHD) is limited to erythematous maculopapular rash and oral mucosal lesions while the chronic form manifests in a wider range in a localized area or disseminated including involvement of nail, scalp and genital area. This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview on the variable cutaneous presentations of acute and chronic GvHD for a proper and early diagnosis on the one hand, and to discuss updated therapeutic options for both acute and chronic GvHD on the other hand, to initiate an adequate treatment to obtain the most beneficial clinical outcome.

Abstract
Haematological malignancies induce important alterations of the immune system, which account for the high frequency of autoimmune complications observed in patients. Cutaneous immune-mediated diseases associated with haematological malignancies encompass a heterogeneous group of dermatoses, including, among others, neutrophilic and eosinophilic dermatoses, autoantibody-mediated skin diseases, vasculitis and granulomatous dermatoses. Some of these diseases, such as paraneoplastic pemphigus, are associated with an increased risk of death; others, such as eosinophilic dermatoses of haematological malignancies, run a benign clinical course but portend a significant negative impairment on a patient’s quality of life. In rare cases, the skin eruption reflects immunological alterations associated with an unfavourable prognosis of the associated haematological disorder. Therapeutic management of immune-mediated skin diseases in patients with haematological malignancies is often challenging. Systemic corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs are considered frontline therapies but may considerably augment the risk of serious infections. Indeed, developing a specific targeted therapeutic approach is of crucial importance for this particularly fragile patient population. This review provides an up-to-date overview on the immune-mediated skin diseases most frequently encountered by patients with onco-haematological disorders, discussing new pathogenic advances and therapeutic options on the horizon.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) is a major cause of non-relapse morbidity and mortality post-allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Using conventional literature search and computational approaches, our objective was to identify oral and gut bacterial species associated with aGVHD, potentially affecting drug treatment via lipopolysaccharide (LPS) pathways. METHODS Medline, PubMed, PubMed Central, and Google Scholar were searched using MeSH terms. The top 100 hits per database were curated, and 25 research articles were selected to examine oral and gut microbiomes associated with health, HSCT, and aGVHD. Literature search validation, aGVHD drug targets, and microbial metabolic pathway identification were completed using BioReader, MACADAM, KEGG, and STRING programs. RESULTS Our review determined that (1) oral genera Rothia, Solobacterium, and Veillonella were identified in HSCT patients' stool and associated with aGVHD; (2) shifts in gut enterococci profiles were determined in HSCT-associated aGVHD; (3) gut microbiome dysbiosis prior or during HSCT and lower Shannon diversity index at time of HSCT were also associated with increased risk of aGVHD and transplant related death; and (4) Coriobacteriaceae family was negatively correlated with gut aGVHD, whereas Eubacterium limosum was associated with decreased risk of chronic GVHD relapse. Additionally, we identified molecular pathways related to TLR4/ LPS, including candidate aGVHD drug targets, impacted by oral and gut bacterial taxa. CONCLUSION Reduced microbial diversity reflects higher severity and mortality rate in HSCT patients with aGVHD. Multi-omics approaches to decipher oral and gut microbiome associations will be critical for developing aGVHD preventive therapies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality following allogenic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. It is an immunological reaction, involving many organs, leading to a wide range of clinical manifestations. Cutaneous manifestations are the most common sign of GVHD, as well as pain, vulnerability to infection and impaired quality of life.Despite the burdens that cutaneous GVHD presents for patients, their carers and the healthcare system, limited evidence is available to guide day to day supportive skin care and wound management. Our objective is to conduct a scoping review to map the evidence for skin and wound management and identify evidence-practice gaps for individuals with acute or chronic cutaneous GVHD. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Our review will follow the scoping review methodological framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley and further refined by the Joanna Briggs Institute Scoping Review Methods Manual. Databases to be searched include; PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Web of Science and MEDLINE from 1970 to February 2020. Database searches will be supplemented with searches from relevant reference lists and grey literature. Descriptive statistical analyses will be performed. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This scoping review does not require ethical approval. Findings will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed publication and conference presentation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prompt management of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) may prevent its morbidity and mortality. Maculopapular (MP) eruption is a presenting sign of acute GVHD, but differentiation from other causes of MP rash is challenging. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted among patients developing MP eruptions after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We compared the clinical and histopathological differences between an acute cutaneous GVHD (group 1) and other MP eruptions (group 2). We also determined the clinical prognostic indicators linked to acute GVHD severity, morbidity, and mortality. RESULTS Of 95 patients identified, 75 met the classification criteria for acute GVHD, and 25 had other MP eruptions. Palm and/or sole involvement was more frequently found (51.4% vs. 12%, odds ratio [OR] [95% confidence interval] = 7 [2.1, 23.7], P < 0.01 and 41.4% vs. 0%, OR 37.2 [2.2, 635], P < 0.01, respectively) in group 1 than in group 2. Comparing the histological features between the two groups, necrotic keratinocytes in basal and spinous layers (92.9% vs. 22.2%, OR 27 [3.5, 594.7], P < 0.01) and (85.7% vs. 33.3%, OR 9.3 [1.4, 60.8], P = 0.02, respectively), diffuse basal vacuolization (42.9% vs. 0%, OR 14.5 [0.7, 298.2], P = 0.04), lymphocyte satellitosis (71.4% vs. 0%, OR 44.3 [2.1, 936.8], P < 0.01), and subepidermal clefts (42.9% vs. 0%, OR 14.5 [0.7, 298.2], P = 0.04) were significantly more apparent in group 1. Among extracutaneous presentations, diarrhea alone and/or accompanied by hyperbilirubinemia (47.1% vs. 16%, OR 4.3 [1.4, 13.1], P = 0.03 and 27.1% vs. 0%, OR 19.3 [1.1, 332.8], P < 0.01, respectively) and newly developed transaminitis (37.1% vs. 12%, OR 3.3 [1.1, 12.6], P = 0.02) suggested the diagnosis of acute GVHD. Mucosal involvement and/or blister formation correlated with severe acute GVHD (OR 26.6 [5.4, 130.4], P < 0.01). Skin and systemic GVHD severity correlated with time to rash resolution (P = 0.03 and P = 0.04, respectively), length of hospital stays (P < 0.01 and P < 0.01, respectively), and mortality (OR 4.87 [1.4, 17.4], P = 0.02 and OR 4.6 [1.3, 16.5], P = 0.02, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our findings may be beneficial tools for establishing the diagnosis of acute GVHD.

Abstract
Intestinal passenger T leukocytes are responsible for graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in intestinal transplantation (ITx). We hypothesized that ex vivo fludarabine treatment of the bowel graft would diminish the risk of GvHD and improve overall survival post-transplant. We performed isolated heterotopic small bowel transplantations from Lewis (LEW) to Brown Norway (BN) rat strains, which generated GvHD signs from the fourth day post-transplant. These symptoms included rash, weight loss, piloerection, and diarrhea. The grafts of one of the experimental groups were immersed and sealed in cold Celsior preservation solution with 1000 µm fludarabine for 1 h, prior to its implantation into recipient animals. No histological signs of intestinal tissue alterations were observed after fludarabine treatment. Fludarabine-treated bowel recipients showed significantly later and milder clinical signs of GvHD and reduced total donor cell chimerism, as determined by flow cytometry using strain-specific anti-HLA antibodies. Additionally, fludarabine treatment prolonged recipients' overall survival (13.5 days ± 0.3 days vs. 9.2 days ± 0.5). We conclude that active modification of the intestinal leukocyte composition is advantageous in our ITx animal model. Immunosuppression with fludarabine during the surgical procedure, which could be translated directly to the clinic, protects bowel recipients from GvHD and improves overall post-transplant survival.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo‐HCT) is an effective therapy for the treatment of high‐risk haematological malignant disorders and other life‐threatening haematological and genetic diseases. Acute graft‐versus‐host disease (aGvHD) remains the most frequent cause of non‐relapse mortality following allo‐HCT and limits its extensive clinical application. Current pharmacologic agents used for prophylaxis and treatment of aGvHD are not uniformly successful and have serious secondary side effects. Therefore, more effective and safe prophylaxis and therapy for aGvHD are an unmet clinical need. Defibrotide is a multi‐target drug successfully employed for prophylaxis and treatment of veno‐occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome. Recent preliminary clinical data have suggested some efficacy of defibrotide in the prevention of aGvHD after allo‐HCT. Using a fully MHC‐mismatched murine model of allo‐HCT, we report here that defibrotide, either in prophylaxis or treatment, is effective in preventing T cell and neutrophil infiltration and aGvHD‐associated tissue injury, thus reducing aGvHD incidence and severity, with significantly improved survival after allo‐HCT. Moreover, we performed in vitro mechanistic studies using human cells revealing that defibrotide inhibits leucocyte‐endothelial interactions by down‐regulating expression of key endothelial adhesion molecules involved in leucocyte trafficking. Together, these findings provide evidence that defibrotide may represent an effective and safe clinical alternative for both prophylaxis and treatment of aGvHD after allo‐HCT, paving the way for new therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Background Hematopoietic stem cell transplant is a crucial intervention to definitively treat many hematopoietic malignancies, but it carries great risks of morbidity and mortality often associated with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Acute and chronic GVHD are distinct entities, defined by a combination of historical, clinical, and pathologic data, but both are generally thought to stem from self-propagating aberrantly activated immune cells inflicting end organ damage, with the potential to cause significant illness or even death. Event-free survival rates after hematopoietic stem cell transplant continue to improve each year, but GVHD remains a major hurdle in improving the efficacy and safety of transplant. Objective Recent studies demonstrating tissue-specific immune effector phenotypes underscore the need for a deeper understanding of the cellular and molecular pathways driving the destruction of target tissues in patients with acute GVHD. Methods Samples were collected from lesional and unaffected skin in five patients with acute cutaneous GHVD. Fresh tissue was processed for fluorescence-activated cell sorting and analysis of macrophages and lymphocytes. Results The percentage of lymphocytes and macrophages as a representation of total cells varied among patients and was not always consistent between lesional and unaffected sites. The heterogeneity in immune cell profiling observed in patients in this study could reflect the diverse demographics, conditioning, and transplant conditions of each individual. Conclusion This study provides initial insight into the underlying molecular mechanisms of cutaneous GVHD progression and paves the way for additional studies to examine the cellular and molecular landscape in greater detail.

Abstract
There is increasing evidence to suggest an association between depression and inflammation, with patients suffering from immune mediated-disorders exhibiting higher levels of depression. Inflammation in depression is a potential target for the development of novel treatment strategies. The present study presents a clinical case in which a patient with an underlying inflammatory condition acutely developed a severe depressive episode resulting in a sudden, dramatic change in their clinical picture. This case, with no similar case reports being in the literature thus far, at least to the best of our knowledge, highlights the increasing consideration that there may be a causative role between neuro-inflammation and depression. This study reports the case of a 40-year-old male with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and no previous psychiatric history, who developed an acute onset of a severe depressive episode in the context of the immune-mediated graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). GVHD is a complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, which the patient had undergone, for the treatment of his ALL. The rapid onset of depression could be explained by the neuroinflammatory processes occurring in GVHD. This provides a clinical example for the possible role of the immune system in depression, and clinicians should be aware of this association.

Abstract
Inflammatory dermatopathology remains a challenging area for surgical pathologists. Yet every surgical pathologist encounters inflammatory dermatoses as part of routine practice. This review will focus on selected diagnoses that are either commonly encountered in the routine practice of surgical pathology or are critically important. The following entities will be covered: spongiotic dermatoses, lichen simplex chronicus, and early lichen sclerosus in the setting of vulvar biopsies, as well as graft versus host disease, Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis, granuloma anulare, pyoderma gangrenosum, and calciphylaxis. Practical points and key histologic features will be emphasized.

Abstract
Although histopathological differences have been reported between acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) rash and non-aGVHD rash in CD34+-selected peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) recipients, skin biopsy alone is usually insufficient to determine rash etiology. As such, distinguishing inflammatory non-aGVHD rashes, such as drug eruptions, from cutaneous aGVHD after CD34+-selected PBSCT remains challenging and relies on clinical presentation. This study aimed to identify etiologies of skin rash in the first year after CD34+-selected PBSCT and to assess whether laboratory serologic markers, transplant characteristics, and rash morphology and symptomatology aid in differentiation of cutaneous aGVHD rash versus non-aGVHD rash. We conducted a retrospective study of 243 adult patients who underwent CD34+-selected PBSCT at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center between 2008 and 2011. Among this cohort of transplant recipients, only 43 patients (17.7%) developed cutaneous aGVHD. A total of 152 patients (63%) were identified with rash within 1 year after PBSCT. The proportion of patients who experienced peripheral eosinophilia was not different between those with an aGVHD versus non-aGVHD rash (P ≥ .90), nor when stratified by CD34+ selection method (Isolex, P = .70; CliniMACS, P≥ .90). The proportion of patients with pruritus was also not different between those with an aGVHD rash versus non-aGVHD rash (P= .20), or when stratified by CD34+ selection modality (Isolex, P = .20; CliniMACS, P = .50). The most common cause of non-aGVHD rash among those with a clear etiology was drug (39% of Isolex; 26% of CliniMACS). Single drug culprits were identified in 51% of drug rashes. The most commonly reported offending agents included antibiotics, keratinocyte growth factor, chemotherapy, and recombinant glycosylated human IL-7.

Abstract
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is an adverse immunologic phenomenon following allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Cutaneous manifestations are the earliest and most common presentation of the disease. This article describes the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment options available for acute and chronic GVHD. Acute and chronic GVHD result from an initial insult triggering an exaggerated inflammatory cascade. Clinical presentation for cutaneous acute GVHD is limited to maculopapular rash and oral mucosal lesions, whereas chronic GVHD can also include nail, scalp, and genitalia changes. Diagnosis is often made clinically and supported by biopsy, laboratory and radiology findings.

Abstract
Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) produce large amounts of different cytokines which can influence differentiation, polarization and activation of immune cells, particularly NK and T cells. iNKT have been shown to suppress GvHD and promote anti-tumor and anti-pathogen immunity. There are highly specific and safe synthetic ligands such as alpha-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) and C20:2 which activate iNKT cells toward relatively Th1 and Th2 pathways, respectively. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) or 'hematopoietic stem cell transplantation' (HSCT) is effective for leukemia and lymphoma through 'graft-versus-leukemia' (GVL) immunity. However, frequent serious complications include graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD), opportunistic infections and relapse. Both GVHD and GVL are mediated by T cells. Manipulating iNKT by different lipid analogues in early and late phases after transplantation may suppress GVHD and graft rejection and enhance GVL effect, as well as resistance to opportunistic infections and so, could be a novel and effective strategy for improving HSCT outcome.

Abstract
Patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT) are at a high risk of dermatological complications compared to the general population as a result of long-term use of immunosuppressant. However, the risk is not as high as other solid organ transplantations (SOT), particularly for skin cancer. The liver is considered as an immune privileged organ since it has a low prevalence of humoral rejection in contrast to other SOT, and thus, LT requires a minimal amount of immunosuppressants compared to other SOT recipients. However, because of the large volume of the liver, patients with LT have higher donor lymphocytes that sometimes may trigger graft-versus-host-disease, yet it is rare. On the other hand, the vast majority of the nonspecific dermatological lesions linked with cirrhosis improve after removal of diseased liver or due to the immunosuppressant used after LT. Nevertheless, dermatological infections related to bacteria, viruses, and fungus after LT are not uncommon. Additionally, the incidence of IgE-mediated food allergies develops in 12.2% of LT patients and may present as life-threatening conditions such as urticaria and/or angioedema and hypersensitivity. Moreover, skin malignancies after LT are a matter of concern. Thus, posttransplant dermatological care should be provided to all LT patients for any suspicious dermatological lesions. Our goal is to give an outline of the dermatological manifestation associated with LT for the clinicians by collecting the published data from all archived case reports.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCTs) are used to treat a variety of conditions, including hematologic malignancies, bone marrow failure syndromes, and immunodeficiencies. Over 60,000 HSCTs are performed annually worldwide, and the numbers continue to increase. Indeed, as new conditioning regimens develop, more and more individuals, including those of older age, will be eligible for transplants. Nevertheless, although HSCTs are clearly a life-saving and necessary treatment for thousands of patients per year, there is still substantial morbidity and mortality associated with the procedure. Of note, skin eruptions in the post-HSCT period are frequent and often significantly reduce quality of life in recipients. Moreover, these cutaneous findings sometimes herald an underlying systemic condition, presenting possible opportunities for timelier intervention. Dermatologists therefore play a vital role in distinguishing life-threatening conditions from benign issues and prompting recognition of critical complications earlier in their course. This article aims to review the major dermatologic conditions occurring in the early post-HSCT period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cutaneous melanoma incidence may be modestly elevated in people with HIV (PWH) vs. people without HIV. However, little is known about the relationship of immunosuppression, HIV replication, and antiretroviral therapy (ART) with melanoma risk. METHODS PWH of white race in the North American AIDS Cohort Collaboration on Research and Design were included. A standardized incidence ratio was calculated comparing risk with the white general population, standardizing by age, sex, and calendar period. Associations between melanoma incidence and current, lagged, and cumulative measures of CD4 count, HIV RNA level, and ART use were estimated with Cox regression, adjusting for established risk factors such as age and annual residential ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure. RESULTS Eighty melanomas were diagnosed among 33,934 white PWH (incidence = 40.75 per 100,000 person-years). Incidence was not elevated compared with the general population [standardized incidence ratio = 1.15, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 0.91 to 1.43]. Higher melanoma incidence was associated with older age [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) per decade increase = 1.50, 95% CI = 1.20 to 1.89] and higher UVB exposure (aHR for exposure ≥35 vs. <35 mW/m = 1.62, 95% CI = 0.99 to 2.65). Current, lagged, and cumulative CD4 and HIV RNA were not associated with melanoma incidence. Melanoma incidence was higher among people ART-treated for a larger proportion of time in the previous 720 days (aHR per 10% increase = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.03 to 1.30). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that HIV-induced immune dysfunction does not influence melanoma development. The association between ART and melanoma risk may be due to increased skin surveillance among PWH engaged in clinical care. Associations with age and UVB confirmed those established in the general population.

EBMT-NIH-CIBMTR Task Force position statement on standardized terminology & guidance for graft-versus-host disease assessment. Bone Marrow Transplant 2018; 53:1401-1415. [PMID: 29872128 PMCID: PMC6786777 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-018-0204-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 266] [Impact Index Per Article: 44.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2017] [Revised: 03/05/2018] [Accepted: 04/03/2018] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Several international recommendations address the assessment of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). This position statement by GvHD experts from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) reviews the existing guidelines for both acute and chronic GvHD, addresses potential confusions that arise in daily practice and proposes consensus definitions for many key terms. We provide a historical perspective on the currently available guidelines and recommend the Mount Sinai Acute GvHD International Consortium (MAGIC) criteria for acute GvHD and the NIH 2014 criteria for chronic GvHD as the most comprehensive and detailed criteria available. This statement also offers practical guidance for the implementation of these recommendations and a set of consensus definitions for commonly used GvHD terms in order to facilitate future clinical and translational research. To assist the dissemination of these recommendations, a web-application based on this position statement is available (https://www.uzleuven.be/egvhd). We believe that adherence to a common set of GvHD assessment criteria is vitally important to improve the quality of data, compare results of retrospective studies and prospective clinical trials, and make therapeutic recommendations based on quality evidence.

Abstract
The skin is the most common target organ affected by graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), with severity and response to therapy representing important predictors of patient survival. Although many of the initiating events in GVHD pathogenesis have been defined, less is known about why treatment resistance occurs or why there is often a permanent failure to restore tissue homeostasis. Emerging data suggest that the unique immune microenvironment in the skin is responsible for defining location- and context-specific mechanisms of injury that are distinct from those involved in other target organs. In this review, we address recent advances in our understanding of GVHD biology in the skin and outline the new research themes that will ultimately enable design of precision therapies.
