Abstract
During the state of immune vulnerability in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), the patient has an increased risk of developing a vast number of complications, including severe problems in the oral cavity. These situations require professional oral care to act in the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions, as well as to develop prevention protocols to minimize patient's complications. Oral mucositis, opportunistic infections, bleeding, specific microbiota, taste, and salivary alterations are complications that can occur during HSCT and interfere with various aspects, such as pain control, oral intake, nutrition, bacteremia and sepsis, days of hospitalization and morbidity. Several guidelines have been published to address the role of professional oral care during the HSCT, we describe a consensus regarding these recommendations.

Abstract
Traditionally, alloimmunization to transfused blood products has focused exclusively on recipient antibodies recognizing donor alloantigens present on the cell surface. Accordingly, the immunologic sequelae of alloimmunization have been antibody mediated effects (ie, hemolytic transfusion reactions, platelet refractoriness, anti-HLA and anti-HNA effects, etc). However, in addition to the above sequelae, there is also a correlation between the number of antecedent transfusions in humans and the rate of bone marrow transplant (BMT) rejection-under reduced intensity conditioning with HLA-matched or HLA-identical marrow. Bone marrow transplant of this nature is the only existing cure for a series of nonmalignant hematologic diseases (eg, sickle cell disease, thalassemias, etc); however, rejection remains a clinical problem. It has been hypothesized that transfusion induces subsequent BMT rejection through immunization. Studies in animal models have observed the same effect and have demonstrated that transfusion-induced BMT rejection can occur in response to alloimmunization. However, unlike traditional antibody responses, sensitization in this case results in cellular immune effects, involving populations such as T cell or natural killer cells. In this case, rejection occurs in the absence of alloantibodies and would not be detected by existing immune-hematologic methods. We review human and animal studies in light of the hypothesis that, for distinct clinical populations, enhanced rejection of BMT may be an unappreciated adverse consequence of transfusion, which current blood bank methodologies are unable to detect.

Abstract
For many nonmalignant hematological disorders, HLA-matched bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is curative. However, due to lack of neoplasia, the toxicity of stringent conditioning regimens is difficult to justify, and reduced intensity conditioning is used. Unfortunately, current reduced intensity regimens have high rates of BMT rejection. We have recently reported in a murine model that mHAs on transfused platelet products induce subsequent BMT rejection. Most nonmalignant hematological disorders require transfusion support prior to BMT and the rate of BMT rejection in humans correlates with the number of transfusions given. Herein, we perform a mechanistic analysis of platelet transfusion-induced BMT rejection and report that unlike exposure to alloantigens during transplantation, platelet transfusion primes alloimmunity but does not stimulate full effector function. Subsequent BMT is itself an additional and distinct immunizing event, which does not induce rejection without antecedent priming from transfusion. Both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells are required for priming during platelet transfusion, but only CD8(+) T cells are required for BMT rejection. In neither case are antibodies required for rejection to occur.

Abstract
Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) represents a cure for nonmalignant hematological disorders. However, compared with the stringent conditioning regimens used when performing BMT to treat hematological malignancies, the reduced intensity conditioning regimen used in the context of nonmalignant hematological disorders leads to substantially higher rates of BMT rejection, presumably due to an intact immune system. The relevant patient population typically receives transfusion support, often including platelets, and the frequency of BMT rejection correlates with the frequency of transfusion. Here, we demonstrate that immunity to transfused platelets contributes to subsequent BMT rejection in mice, even when the BMT donor and recipient are MHC matched. We used MHC-matched bone marrow because, although immunity to transfused platelets is best characterized in relation to HLA-specific antibodies, such antibodies are unlikely to play a role in clinical BMT rejection that is HLA matched. However, bone marrow is not matched in the clinic for minor histocompatibility antigens, such as those carried by platelets, and we report that transfusion of minor histocompatibility antigen-mismatched platelets induced subsequent BMT rejection. These findings indicate previously unappreciated sequelae of immunity to platelets in the context of transplantation and suggest that strategies to account for minor histocompatibility mismatching may help to reduce the chance of BMT rejection in human patients.

Abstract
Recent insights into the function and dysfunction of microglia may inform future therapies to combat neurodegeneration. We hypothesise how different aspects of microglial activity including migration, activation, oxidative response, phagocytosis, proteolysis, and replenishment could be targeted by novel therapeutic approaches. A combined approach is suggested, encompassing opsonization and anti-inflammatory strategies in conjunction with an engineering of microglial precursors. Xenoproteases for bioremediation could be used to enhance intracellular and extracellular proteolytic capacity. The capacity of microglial precursors to cross the blood-brain barrier and to home in on sites of neural damage and inflammation might prove to be particularly useful for future therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Inherited acidosis may result from a primary renal defect in acid-base handling, emphasizing the central role of the kidney in control of body pH; as a secondary phenomenon resulting from abnormal renal electrolyte handling; or from excess production of acid elsewhere in the body. Here, we review our current understanding of the inherited renal acidoses at a genetic and molecular level.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has proven successful for the treatment of a host of genetic and malignant diseases of the blood, but immune barriers to allogeneic tissue transplantation have hindered wider application. Likewise, gene therapy now appears effective in the treatment of various forms of immune deficiency, and yet insertional mutagenesis from viral gene transfer has raised safety concerns. One strategy for addressing the limitations of both gene therapy and allogeneic transplantation entails the creation of pluripotent stem cells from a patient's own somatic cells, thereby enabling precise in situ gene repair via homologous recombination in cultured cells, followed by autologous tissue transplantation. In murine model systems, the methods of somatic cell nuclear transfer, parthenogenesis, and direct somatic cell reprogramming with defined genetic factors have been used to generate pluripotent stem cells, and initial efforts at therapeutic gene repair and tissue transplantation suggest that the technology is feasible. Generating patient-specific autologous pluripotent stem cells provides an opportunity to combine gene therapy with autologous cell therapy to treat a host of human conditions. However, a number of technical hurdles must be overcome before therapies based on pluripotent human stem cells will appear in the clinic.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation represents the only curative option for malignant infantile osteopetrosis (MIOP), a rare disease of infants and young children, characterized by excessive accumulation of mineralized bone and abnormal hematopoiesis. We report a case of successful engraftment and stable full-donor chimerism in a patient with MIOP who underwent unrelated donor cord blood transplantation (CBT). The donor was 2-loci human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatch. After a conditioning regimen based on the combination of busulfan, cyclophosphamide, total body irradiation, and antithymocyte globulin, the patient received a dose of 3.85 x 10(7)/kg of nucleated cells. Neutrophil and platelet engraftment had been achieved by day +33 and +82, respectively, and the patient was discharged home on day +89. A successful engraftment of donor hematopoiesis was demonstrated and the child experienced grade II acute graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) involving the skin only. A remarkable but non-progressive decrease in lumbar spine bone mineral density was observed in the first nine months post-transplant. This case suggests that unrelated donor CBT may be a feasible option in case of unavailability of a fully HLA-matched related or unrelated donor.

Abstract
The conditioning prior to allogeneic stem cell transplantation was originally designed as a myeloablative conditioning, designed to eliminate malignant or genetically abnormal cells and then use the transplant procedure for rescue of the patients or to replace missing bone marrow products. However, allografts can induce effective graft vs. malignancy effects and can also eliminate undesirable hematopoietic stem cells in patients with genetic disorders and autoimmune diseases, thus documenting that alloreactive effects mediated by donor lymphocytes post-grafting can play a major role in eliminating hematopoietic cell of host origin, as well as provide effective immunotherapy for the treatment of disease recurrence. The efficacy of donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) could be improved by activation with rIL-2 or by donor immunization. The cumulative experience over the years suggesting that alloreactive donor lymphocytes were most effective in eliminating tumor cells of host origin resulted in an attempt to reduce the intensity of the conditioning in preparation for the transplant procedure used for the treatment of hematological and other malignancies as well as life-threatening non-malignant disorders for which allogeneic stem cell transplantation may be indicated. Our working hypothesis proposed that the myeloablative conditioning which is hazardous and may be associated with early and late side effects, may not be required for treatment of patients with any indication for allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Instead, nonmyeloablative conditioning based on the use of reduced intensive preparatory regimen, also known as nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation, may be sufficient for engraftment of donor stem cells while avoiding procedure-related toxicity and mortality, followed by elimination of undesirable cells of host origin by post-transplant effects mediated by alloreactive donor lymphocytes infused along with donor stem cells or administered subsequently as DLI. Improvement of the immediate outcome of stem cell transplantation using NST due to a significant decrease in transplant related mortality has broadened the spectrum of patients eligible for allogeneic stem cell transplantation, including elderly patients and other patients with less than optimal performance status. Likewise, the safer use of stem cell transplantation prompted expanding the scope of potential indications for allogeneic stem cell transplantation, such as metastatic solid tumors and autoimmune disorders, which now are slowly becoming much more acceptable. Current strategies focus on the need to improve the capacity of donor lymphocytes to eliminate undesirable malignant and non-malignant hematopoietic cells of host origin, replacing abnormal or malignant stem cells or their products with normal hematopoietic stem cells of donor origin, while minimizing procedure-related toxicity and mortality and improving the quality of life by reducing the incidence and severity of hazardous acute and chronic GVHD.
