Repertoire diversity and dynamics of peripheral Th17 after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Summary Th17, a subset of helper T cells that produce interleukin‐17 (IL‐17), is thought to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of chronic graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD). However, the kinetics of Th17 following allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo‐HSCT)...

Serum thioredoxin at allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation predicts acute graft‐versus‐host disease

Summary Thioredoxin (TXN) is a component of a major reductive system in various eukaryotes. Although oxidative stress is considered to contribute to the development of acute graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD), the clinical significance of TXN remains to be elucidated. The current s...
