In Vitro Mesenchymal Progenitor Cell Expansion is a Predictor of Transplant-related Mortality and acute GvHD III-IV After Bone Marrow Transplantation in Univariate Analysis: A Large Single-Center Experience

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells able to differentiate into mesenchymal origin tissue and support the growth of hematopoietic stem cells. In order to understand the role of MSCs infused in bone marrow grafts, 53 consecutive patients were analyzed for engraftment, acute and
