Chimerism Patterns of Long-Term Stable Mixed Chimeras Posthematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients with Nonmalignant Diseases: Follow-Up of Long-Term Stable Mixed Chimerism Patients
24 Feb 2013
Abstract excerpt
Long-term stable mixed chimerism (MC) is a rare phenomenon after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) characterized by 5% to 95% residual recipient hematopoietic cells. The underlying mechanisms of MC are largely unknown. In this study we compared full donor chimerism with long-lasting stable MC for a median of 9.5 years (range, 5 to 16.5) post-HSCT in patients with nonmalignant diseases. Several...
