lüll Acute graft-versus-host disease: pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and management Couriel D; Caldera H; Champlin R; Komanduri KCancer 2004[Nov]; 101 (9): 1936-46Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has evolved as a central treatment modality in the management of different hematologic malignancies. Despite adequate posttransplantation immunosuppressive therapy, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation setting, even in patients who receive human leukemic antigen (HLA) identical sibling grafts. Up to 30% of the recipients of stem cells or bone marrow transplantation from HLA-identical related donors and most patients who receive cells from other sources (matched-unrelated, non-HLA-identical siblings, cord blood) will develop > Grade 2 acute GVHD despite immunosuppressive prophylaxis. Thus, GVHD continues to be a major limitation to successful hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In this review, the authors summarize the most current knowledge on the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and management of this potentially life-threatening transplantation complication.|Acute Disease[MESH]|Antigen-Presenting Cells/physiology[MESH]|CD4 Antigens/analysis[MESH]|Graft vs Host Disease/complications/*physiopathology/therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Lymphocyte Depletion[MESH]|Receptors, Interleukin-2/analysis[MESH]|T-Lymphocyte Subsets/immunology[MESH] |
