Endothelial cell dysfunction: a key determinant for the outcome of allogeneic stem cell transplantation

1

Endothelial cell dysfunction significantly impacts outcomes in allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) due to various pre- and post-transplant challenges.
2

Endothelial injury syndromes such as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy, and acute graft-versus-host disease are critical post-transplant complications.
3

Biomarkers like ANG2 and ST2 are essential for diagnosing and predicting endothelial injury syndromes and their associated complications in alloSCT patients.
4

Functional heterogeneity among endothelial cells complicates the diagnosis of endothelial complications, as individual responses to stressors can vary widely.
5

Understanding the mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction is crucial for developing targeted therapies and improving patient outcomes after alloSCT.
