Abstract

As shown in many reports, allogeneic BMT can help cure autoimmune diseases. Conversely, we present a 24-year-old woman with Graves' disease, which was diagnosed just before BMT for CML. The Graves' disease remitted immediately after BMT but relapsed 18 months later. Since the donor was free from thyroid diseases and the patient showed a rapid shift to complete donor chimerism after BMT, the autoimmune problem seemed neither to arise directly from the donor nor simply from the recipient's residual lymphocytes. On the contrary, it was most likely compounded by chronic GVHD as suggested by the accompanying GVHD symptoms and the absolute donor karyotype in bone marrow cells. A Graves' disease-susceptible HLA allele was also shared between recipient and donor, possibly enhancing the chances of this condition developing. Thus, allogeneic BMT may facilitate relapses in autoimmune diseases as well as alleviating them.

  • Secondary autoimmunity following allogeneic BMT/HSCT arises by additional mechanisms distinguishing it from other IRTs, including adoptive immunity and graft-versus-host disease with loss of regulation of autoreactive T lymphocytes.

    “Secondary autoimmunity following allogeneic BMT/HSCT arises by additional mechanisms distinguishing it from the other IRTs including: (1) adoptive immunity, that is transferral of autoreactive lymphocyte clones from the donor to the recipient and (2) graft-versus-host disease with the loss of regulation of autoreactive T lymphocytes previously kept under control by peripheral immune tolerance [11,”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
