Abstract
Since the first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) was performed by Dr. E. Donnall Thomas in 1957, the field has advanced with new stem cell sources, immune suppressive regimens, and transplant protocols. Stem cells may be collected from bone marrow, peripheral or cord blood from an identical twin, a sibling, or a related or unrelated donor, which can be human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched, mismatched, or haploidentical. Although HLA matching is one of the most important criteria for successful allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT) to minimize graft vs host disease (GVHD), prevent relapse, and improve overall survival, the novel immunosuppressive protocols for GVHD prophylaxis offered improved outcomes in haploidentical HCT (haplo-HCT), expanding donor availability for the majority of HCT candidates. These immunosuppressive protocols are currently being tested with the HLA-matched and mismatched donors to improve HCT outcomes further. In addition, fine-tuning the DPB1 mismatching and discovering the B leader genotype and mismatching may offer further optimization of donor selection and transplant outcomes. While the decision about a donor type largely depends on the patient's characteristics, disease status, and the transplant protocols utilized by an individual transplant center, there are general approaches to donor selection dictated by donor-recipient histocompatibility and the urgency for HCT. This review highlights recent advances in understanding critical factors in donor selection strategies for allo-HCT. It uses clinical vignettes to demonstrate the importance of making timely decisions for HCT candidates.

Abstract
Fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) is strongly associated with neonatal morbidity and mortality and can be classified as type I or type II. Clinically, FIRS type I and type II are considered as distinct syndromes, yet the molecular underpinnings of these fetal inflammatory responses are not well understood because of their low prevalence and the difficulty of postdelivery diagnosis. In this study, we performed RNA sequencing of human cord blood samples from preterm neonates diagnosed with FIRS type I or FIRS type II. We found that FIRS type I was characterized by an upregulation of host immune responses, including neutrophil and monocyte functions, together with a proinflammatory cytokine storm and a downregulation of T cell processes. In contrast, FIRS type II comprised a mild chronic inflammatory response involving perturbation of HLA transcripts, suggestive of fetal semiallograft rejection. Integrating single-cell RNA sequencing-derived signatures with bulk transcriptomic data confirmed that FIRS type I immune responses were mainly driven by monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils. Last, tissue- and cell-specific signatures derived from the BioGPS Gene Atlas further corroborated the role of myeloid cells originating from the bone marrow in FIRS type I. Collectively, these data provide evidence that FIRS type I and FIRS type II are driven by distinct immune mechanisms; whereas the former involves the innate limb of immunity consistent with host defense, the latter resembles a process of semiallograft rejection. These findings shed light on the fetal immune responses caused by infection or alloreactivity that can lead to deleterious consequences in neonatal life.
