Summary: Recent studies have shown that plerixafor mobilization and apheresis in patients with sickle cell disease can safely collect sufficient CD34(+) hematopoietic stem cells for clinical gene therapy applications. The quantity of CD34(+) cells mobilized by plerixafor varies among SCD patients for unknown reasons, and factors influencing this yield include age, baseline and pre-apheresis CD34(+) cell counts, and disease severity markers unique to SCD.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of mecapegfilgrastim as a mobilization agent for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies and investigate potential factors associated with mobilization failure. The results showed that mecapegfilgrastim had comparable mobilization efficacy to rhG-CSF in patients with hematologic malignancies, and the combination with plerixafor was feasible and effective. Furthermore, patients with more than 5 cycles of chemotherapy, a precollection white blood cell count lower than 32 x 10^9/L, and a precollection lymphocyte count less than 1.7 times the premobilization lymphocyte count had a higher risk of mobilization failure.

Summary: P-selectin is identified as a critical factor for G-CSF-induced HSC mobilization. Blocking the interaction between P-selectin and PSGL-1 can facilitate the mobilization of HSCs from bone marrow to peripheral circulation.

Summary: In allogeneic PBSC donors with poor mobilization response to G-CSF, the study found that the use of plerixafor (P) can effectively increase the yield of CD34+ cells, helping to achieve the target cell count without severe adverse events.

Summary: This review introduced the mechanistic insights on the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) induced by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) from the aspect of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Recent findings reveal the balance between promotion and suppression pathways regulated by the SNS determines the efficiency of mobilization. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms of G-CSF-induced mobilization and its clinical implications can aid in the treatment and research of hematopoietic stem cells.

Summary: The study compared the cost-effectiveness of using G-CSF alone versus high-dose cyclophosphamide + G-CSF mobilization in Italian multiple myeloma patients eligible for autograft. The findings revealed that G-CSF alone was a more cost-effective option, demonstrating incremental savings and a higher probability of successful apheresis.

Summary: Plerixafor exhibits biased action by reversing the CXCL12 gradient across the bone marrow endothelium and showing superior therapeutic effect in HSC mobilization. In contrast, AMD11070, despite having superior antagonism, does not perform as effectively in HSC mobilization in vivo.

Summary: This study investigated the correlation between body mass index (BMI), proinflammatory cytokine levels, and hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mobilization triggered by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). The results showed that BMI was positively correlated with G-CSF-induced HSC mobilization, and good mobilizers had higher BMI and proinflammatory cytokine levels compared to poor mobilizers.

Summary: A new in vivo hemopoietic stem cell gene therapy approach has been developed without the need for myelosuppressive conditioning and autologous HSC transplantation, involving HSC mobilization and a helper-dependent adenovirus vector system. The mobilization regimen using truncated GRO-beta and plerixafor resulted in robust HSC mobilization with less toxicity. In a mouse model, in vivo HSC transduction after mobilization led to complete correction of thalassemia, demonstrating the potential for long-term HSC repopulation.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of charge and hydrophilicity of polymers on their accumulation in injured kidneys and demonstrates that polymers with hydroxyl group modification show the least accumulation. These findings provide important guidance for the development of targeted drug carriers for AKI therapy.

Summary: This study showed that a single dosage of 6 mg pegfilgrastim was effective and safe in mobilizing CD34+ cells for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Compared to the use of G-CSF, pegfilgrastim led to higher CD34+ cell yield in leukapheresis and a potential decrease in the incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). The higher proportion of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in the pegfilgrastim group may contribute to this decrease in aGVHD, but further research is needed to explore this relationship.

Summary: The study found that mobilization of endogenous EPCs by AMD3100 combined with G-CSF enhanced complete healing and neovascularization in full-thickness wounds of db/db mice, possibly through the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis. This provides a novel method for diabetic wound healing and tissue regeneration.

Summary: This study evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of the proteasomal inhibitor bortezomib (BTZ) and found that it has antifibrotic actions in lung fibrosis. Surprisingly, these actions are independent of proteasome inhibition and instead mediated by the induction of dual-specificity protein phosphatase 1 (DUSP1).

Summary: This study found that the transcription factor KLF4 is suppressed in fibroblasts from fibrotic lung. Gain-and loss-of-function studies showed that KLF4 can inhibit fibroblast proliferation, collagen synthesis, and differentiation to myofibroblasts, while restoring their sensitivity to apoptosis. A small molecule inducer of KLF4 was able to restore its expression in fibrotic fibroblasts and induce resolution of fibrosis. These findings highlight the importance of KLF4 as a negative regulator of fibroblast activation.
