Unfortunately, transfusion can also be associated with complications.

The benefits of exchange versus simple transfusion and transfusion versus alternative therapies are discussed.","PeriodicalId":79755,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic apheresis : official journal of the International Society for Apheresis and the Japanese Society for Apheresis","volume":"5 1","pages":"24-31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75362900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cryoglobulins are circulating complexes that can deposit on small vessels and cause limited or extensive tissue injury. There are 3 major classes of cryoglobulins. Type I cryoglobulins are monoclonal and are detected in a variety of lymphoproliferative disorders. Type II cryoglobulins are mixed containing monoclonal and polyclonal IgG or IgM molecules. Type III cryoglobulins are also mixed and contain polyclonal IgG. Type II cryoglobulins are largely caused by hepatitis C virus infection; hence, they are the most common of the 3 types. In hepatitis C, cryoglobulins are linked to glomerular immune complex injury, often times accompanied by vasculitis of the skin, nerves, and other vital organs. Immediate removal of cryoglobulins by plasma exchange is an effective short-term treatment that can complement more-specific therapies. Plasma exchange has also been used to remove other circulating nephrotoxic agents such as antiglomerular basement antibodies that cause Goodpasture's syndrome, protease inhibitor autoantibodies that cause thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, and antiglomerular factors that cause some types of focal glomerulosclerosis.","PeriodicalId":79755,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic apheresis : official journal of the International Society for Apheresis and the Japanese Society for Apheresis","volume":"38 1","pages":"69-76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89975983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the early 1990s, PBPCs replaced bone marrow (BM) as the preferred source of autologous stem cells, and recently the same phenomenon is seen in the allogeneic setting. Under steady-state conditions, the concentration of PBPCs (as defined by CFU-GM and/or CD34+ cells) is very low, and techniques were developed to increase markedly this concentration. Such mobilization techniques include daily injections of filgrastim (G-CSF) or a combination of chemotherapy and growth factors. Leukapheresis procedures allow the collection of large numbers of circulating white blood cells (and PBPCs). One or two leukapheresis procedures are often sufficient to obtain the minimum number of CD34+ cells considered necessary for prompt and consistent engraftment (i.e., 2.5-5.0 x 10(6)/kg). As compared to BM, autologous transplants with PBPCs lead to faster hematologic recovery and have few, if any, disadvantages. In the allogeneic arena, PBPCs also result in faster engraftment, but at a somewhat higher cost of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). This may be a double-edged sword leading to both increased graft-versus-tumor effects and increased morbidity. The rapid advances in the study of hematopoietic, and even earlier, stem cells will continue to shape the future of PBPC transplantation.","PeriodicalId":79755,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic apheresis : official journal of the International Society for Apheresis and the Japanese Society for Apheresis","volume":"25 1","pages":"5-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88556202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various clinical syndromes may arise, either from the underlying disease process, the excess paraprotein, or both. Clinical presentation depends upon the organ system(s) affected by the abnormal protein. Diseases included under the classification of dysproteinemias include cryoprotein-related diseases, Waldenström's macroglobulinemia, hyperviscosity syndrome, monoclonal gammopathy, multiple myeloma, light chain disease, and amyloidosis. Plasmapheresis, often in conjunction with other therapies, has been widely used to treat the dysproteinemias and their resulting clinical syndromes. Automated plasmapheresis, which separates plasma from the cellular blood elements by centrifugation, is used most commonly in the United States. Membrane separation and immunoadsorption techniques are more commonly used in Europe and Japan. In automated plasmapheresis, the plasma is removed from the patient's circulation and replaced with a protein-based fluid such as 5% human albumin solution or plasma protein fraction or with fresh frozen plasma. Membrane separation and immunoadsorption allow the offending proteins to be removed more selectively from the patient's plasma prior to the plasma being returned to the patient. This review article presents a description of each disease, the rationale for plasmapheresis therapy, recommended schedules of plasmapheresis, and the use of adjunctive therapies. Results of published studies, case reports, and the author's experience in treating these diseases will serve as the foundation for discussion.","PeriodicalId":79755,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic apheresis : official journal of the International Society for Apheresis and the Japanese Society for Apheresis","volume":"179 1","pages":"45-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88064702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Seventy-seven donors were subjected to automated platelet donations with 1 type of equipment (37 with Cobe Spectra and 40 with CS 3000 Plus). Blood samples were obtained immediately after separation and on the third day of storage at 22 degrees C in constant agitation. The WBC concentrations of these samples were studied before storage. Paraformaldehyde-fixed platelets were incubated with 2 murine monoclonal antibodies: CD42b and CD62. Murine monoclonal antibody immunoglobulin G was used as a negative isotypic control. Bound antibody was then quantitated by flow cytometry. On the third day of storage, a significant increase in CD62 expression rate was observed in platelet suspensions collected with both kinds of equipment. Mean expression rates for Cobe Spectra on Day 0 and Day 3 were 25.6 +/- 6.2% and 69.2 +/- 9.7%, respectively. Mean expression rates for CS 3000 Plus on Day 0 and Day 3 were 23.4 +/- 8.2% and 67.0 +/- 8.2%, respectively. The mean results for both devices were 22.8 +/- 4.56% for Day 0 and 68.7 +/- 13.2% for Day 3. There was no difference between CD42b mean fluorescence intensity on Days 0 and 3 for the 2 devices (p > 0.5). Mean WBC concentrations in the platelet suspensions for Cobe Spectra and CS 3000 Plus were 0.37 x 10(3)/microl and 0.42 x 10(3)/microl, respectively, and there was no relation between WBC concentration and increase in CD62 expression.

Respiratory failure, intracranial bleeding, and severe metabolic abnormalities frequently occur in acute hyperleukocytic leukemias (AHLs) and are the primary determinants of the high early mortality (20% to 40%) observed. The process leading to these complications has long been known as leukostasis, but the biological mechanisms underlying its development and progression have remained unclear. Traditionally, leukostasis has been attributed to overcrowding of leukemic blasts in the microcirculation, and its treatment has focused on prompt leukocytoreduction. However, it is becoming increasingly evident that leukostasis results from the adhesive interactions between leukemic blasts and the endothelium; a mechanism that none of the current therapies directly addresses. The endothelial damage associated with leukostasis is likely to be mediated by cytokines released in situ and by subsequent migration of leukemic blasts in the perivascular space. The adhesion molecules displayed by the leukemic blasts and their chemotactic response to the cytokines in the vascular microenvironment are probably more important in causing leukostasis than the cell number. This may explain why leukostasis may develop in some patients with AHL and not in others, and why some patients with acute leukemia without hyperleukocytosis (<50,000 blasts/mm(3)) develop leukostasis and respond to leukocytoreduction. Leukapheresis effectively reduces the blast count in many patients with AHL and is routinely used for immediate leukocytoreduction. However, the most appropriate use of leukapheresis in acute leukemia remains unclear, and the procedure may not prevent early death more efficiently than fluid therapy, hydroxyurea, and prompt induction chemotherapy. The use of cranial irradiation remains very controversial and is not generally recommended. The identification of the adhesion molecules, soluble cytokines, and chemotactic ligand-receptor pairs mediating endothelial cell damage in AHL should become a priority if better outcomes are desired.","PeriodicalId":79755,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic apheresis : official journal of the International Society for Apheresis and the Japanese Society for Apheresis","volume":"74 1","pages":"15-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85719086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
