Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has benefited an increasing number of patients with hematological disease in the clinic. It is a curative therapy for malignant and nonmalignant hematological diseases. With the advancement and further clinical application of HSCT in recent years, the life expectancy of patients has increased, but complications have become more common. The occurrence of ocular complications is receiving increasing attention because they can seriously affect the quality of life of patients. Ocular complications require increased attention from clinicians because of their negative impact on patients and increasing incidence. Most of recent reports on posttransplant ocular complications involve ocular manifestations of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and a few ocular complications that do not originate from GVHD have also been reported. This review summarizes the diagnosis, scoring criteria, pathophysiology, and clinical manifestations of and common therapies for ocular graft-versus-host disease(oGVHD) after HSCT, and includes a description of some rare cases and novel therapies.

Future regenerative medicine developments and their therapeutic applications. Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 158:114131.

Abstract
Although the currently available pharmacological assays can cure most pathological disorders, they have limited therapeutic value in relieving certain disorders like myocardial infarct, peripheral vascular disease, amputated limbs, or organ failure (e.g. renal failure). Pilot studies to overcome such problems using regenerative medicine (RM) delivered promising data. Comprehensive investigations of RM in zebrafish or reptilians are necessary for better understanding. However, the precise mechanisms remain poorly understood despite the tremendous amount of data obtained using the zebrafish model investigating the exact mechanisms behind their regenerative capability. Indeed, understanding such mechanisms and their application to humans can save millions of lives from dying due to potentially life-threatening events. Recent studies have launched a revolution in replacing damaged human organs via different approaches in the last few decades. The newly established branch of medicine (known as Regenerative Medicine aims to enhance natural repair mechanisms. This can be done through the application of several advanced broad-spectrum technologies such as organ transplantation, tissue engineering, and application of Scaffolds technology (support vascularization using an extracellular matrix), stem cell therapy, miRNA treatment, development of 3D mini-organs (organoids), and the construction of artificial tissues using nanomedicine and 3D bio-printers. Moreover, in the next few decades, revolutionary approaches in regenerative medicine will be applied based on artificial intelligence and wireless data exchange, soft intelligence biomaterials, nanorobotics, and even living robotics capable of self-repair. The present work presents a comprehensive overview that summarizes the new and future advances in the field of RM.

Abstract
Purpose The objective of this study was to identify the prevalence of CMV ocular disease in children and to identify associated risk factors for ocular involvement. Design Retrospective multicenter, cross-sectional study. Methods Setting: Hospitalized patients screened for CMV viremia by PCR between 2005 and 2018 at four pediatric referral centers. Participants: Seven-hundred and ninety-three children showed CMV viremia (>135 copies/mL by polymerase chain reaction; PCR). Main Outcomes and Measures: (1) Occurrence of ophthalmologic examination. (2) Presence of CMV ocular disease, defined as retinitis, vasculitis, hemorrhage, optic nerve atrophy, or anterior uveitis in the setting of CMV viremia without other identifiable causes. Results A total of 296/793 (37%) underwent ophthalmologic examination following CMV viremia. A total of23/296 patients (8%) had ocular symptoms prompting evaluation while the rest had eye exams for baseline screening unrelated to CMV viremia. Of these, 13 cases (4% of those with an eye exam) with ocular disease were identified (three congenital CMV, five severe combined immunodeficiency disorder (SCID) status post-stem cell transplantation, three hematologic malignancy status post-stem cell transplantation for two of them, one Evans syndrome status post-stem cell transplantation, and one medulloblastoma status post-bone marrow transplantation). No patients with solid organ transplantation developed CMV ocular disease in our cohort. Conclusion CMV ocular disease was a rare occurrence in this cohort without an identifiable pattern across sub-groups. Excluding the three congenital CMV cases, nine out of ten patients with CMV ocular disease were status post-stem cell transplantation. We provide integrated screening guidelines based on the best available evidence for this rare condition.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV), like other herpesviruses, has the unique ability to establish latent infection with subsequent reactivation during periods of stress and immunosuppression. Herpesviruses cause potentially devastating disease, particularly in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. CMV is especially of concern in HSCT recipients given the high community seroprevalence, high risk of reactivation and high risk of transmission from HSCT donors to recipients causing primary infection after transplantation. The risk of CMV infection and severity of CMV disease varies depending on the underlying disease of the HSCT recipient, donor and recipient CMV status prior to HSCT, type of conditioning therapy in preparation for HSCT, allogeneic versus autologous HSCT, donor graft source, timing of infection in relation to HSCT, and other patient comorbidities. Different strategies exist for prevention (e.g., preemptive therapy vs. universal prophylaxis) as well as management of CMV disease (e.g., antiviral therapy, augmenting immune reconstitution, cytotoxic T-cell therapy). The purpose of this narrative review is to discuss diagnosis, prevention, and management of CMV infection and disease at different stages of HSCT, including key points illustrated through presentations of complex cases and difficult clinical scenarios. Traditional and novel strategies for CMV management will be discussed in the context of these unique clinical cases.

[PMID: 34391852 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2021.121010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2021] [Revised: 08/10/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitisis a vision-threatening disease that principally afflicts immunosuppressed patients. For the management of the disease, Ganciclovir (GCV) is usually administered systemically, where patients may suffer severe untoward effects. The ocularly-applied alternatives are either the intravitreal injections, which are frequently administered due to GCV short half-life, or the sustained-release implants, which require surgical removal upon drug depletion. Both therapies are invasive and should be completed by a medical expert. The objective of this research was to formulate a non-invasive alternative represented in GCV loaded ultra-fluidic glycerosomes (UFGs), which are glycerosomes containing sodium taurocholate as an edge activator (EA), then incorporating the optimal UFGs in polylactic acid (PLA)-based 3D printed ocusert to prolong the release of GCV. The experimental design, the statistical analysis, and the optimization were performed via Design-Expert® software. The optimal formulation (UFGs 6; composed of 600 mg Phosphatidylcholine (PC), 20 mg cholesterol, 0.1:1 weight molar ratio of EA: PC and 1 gm glycerol) possessed nanovesicles (441.70 ± 1.13 nm) that entrapped 69.33 ± 0.28 % of GCV, with zeta potential value of -37.00 ± 0.42 mV and deformability index value of 74.68 ± 0.71. The confocal microscopy results showed the supreme penetration power of UFGs through the rabbit's cornea, compared to edge-activated vesicles and conventional glycerosomes from the laden ocusert. Moreover, the topical application of the ocusert laden with the optimal GCV loaded UFGs to the rabbits' eyes evidenced their safety as per the histopathological findings. Furthermore, a pharmacokinetic study in the rabbit's aqueous humor demonstrated the sustained release of GCV from the ocusert laden with the optimal GCV loaded UFGs over 5 days. Inclusively, the ocusert laden with UFGs could be considered as a non-invasive sustaining drug delivery system of GCV for the management of CMV retinitis.

Ophthalmologic findings and complications before and after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: single-center study. Int Ophthalmol 2021; 41:2533-2538. [PMID: 33956257 DOI: 10.1007/s10792-021-01811-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2020] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Different and various system complications and late effects may occur after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It was aimed to obtain information about the frequency of ophthalmologic complications and their relationship with treatment. METHODS This retrospective study includes 104 children who underwent HSCT between February 2019 and June 2020 at the Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. Patients' ages, genders, diagnosis, transplant types, chemotherapy regimens, transplantation details, conditioning regimens, supportive cares, graft versus host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis, infection episodes, and ophthalmologic findings were evaluated. RESULTS Of the 104 patients included in the study, 38 (36.5%) were female and 66 (63.5%) were male. Average age ± SD was 8.7 ± 4.91. Considering the diagnoses, the majority of the patients were acute lymphoblastic leukemia (46 patients-44%). Myeloablative regimen was used in 93 (89%) of the patients, and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) was used in 11 patients (10%). While total body irradiation was applied in 16 (15%) patients, one patient was received cranial radiotherapy. Cyclosporine was used in 96 (92%) patients. CMV reactivation was detected in 54 (51%) of the patients. CMV retinitis was not seen. Ocular pathology was detected in 20 (19%) patients before HSCT and in 12 (11%) patients after HSCT. The most common pathology was dry eye. CONCLUSION Routine ophthalmologic examinations are important in terms of early diagnosis. In addition, GvHD and CMV prophylaxis is important because of reducing the risk of ocular complications after HSCT.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the optimal treatment for cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) in patients status-post Allogeneic bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT), based on aqueous humor indicators. METHODS A randomized controlled study with 35 eyes. Eyes were randomized with a 1:1 ratio to standard treatment group (Group 1, with treatment endpoint as aqueous CMV-DNA load<103 copy/ml), and interleukin (IL)-8 group (Group 2, with treatment endpoint as aqueous IL-8 level <30 pg/ml or CMV-DNA load<103 copy/ml) to receive antiviral intravitreal injections. Number of injections, CMVR recurrence rate, complication rate, and vision changes were analyzed and compared. RESULTS The mean number of injections in group 2 was less than in group 1 (6 vs 8 respectively, p<0.05). There were no significant differences in CMVR recurrence, complication and vision recovery rate. CONCLUSION Incorporating aqueous humor IL-8 level into the criteria of CMVR treatment decision can safely and effectively reduce the number of intravitreal injections needed and can be used as important indicators to assess treatment endpoint.

Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical features and related laboratory indicators of cytomegalovirus retinitis in HIV infected patients in order to find a suitable laboratory reference guide to aid in the early diagnosis of CMVR, which should improve the prognosis of the severe retinitis. Methods: PLHIVs who were admitted to our hospital from January 2010 to December 2016 were included. The diagnosis of AIDS follows the AIDS Treatment Guidelines. Levels of CMV IgG and IgM were measured by ELISA in order to detect the CMV infection status of the patient. CMV-DNA levels were assessed by a quantitative PCR method, and CD4+ T lymphocytes were detected by flow cytometry. Logistical regression was used to analyze the risk factors for CMV retinitis in HIV-infected patients. Results: There were 93 patients with HIV that were also diagnosed with CMV retinitis. After ART, the intraocular pressure, visual acuity, cotton plaque incidence, and CD4+ T lymphocyte count were significantly improved, and the yellow-white retinal lesions gradually disappeared. In patients with HIV infections, the CD4+ T lymphocyte count, and peripheral blood quantitative CMV-DNA levels were found to be independent risk factors for CMV retinitis (P < 0.05). Patients with HIV infection who had CMV-DNA levels >6,390 copies/mL were associated with more severe ophthalmolgic conditions related to CMV retinitis. Conclusion: Patients with HIV infections with quantitative CMV-DNA levels >6,390 copies/mL have a higher probability of having a diagnosis of CMV retinitis and a worse prognosis than those whose CMV-DNA level is <6,390 copies/mL.

Abstract
Non-graft-versus-host disease (non-GVHD) ocular complications are generally uncommon after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), but can cause prolonged morbidity affecting activities of daily living and quality of life. Here we provide an expert review of non-GVHD ocular complications in a collaboration between transplant physicians and ophthalmologists through the Late Effects and Quality of Life Working Committee of the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research and the Transplant Complications Working Party of the European Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation. Complications discussed in this review include cataracts, glaucoma, ocular infections, ocular involvement with malignancy, ischemic microvascular retinopathy, central retinal vein occlusion, retinal hemorrhage, retinal detachment and ocular toxicities associated with medications. We have summarized incidence, risk factors, screening, prevention and treatment of individual complications and generated evidence-based recommendations. Baseline ocular evaluation before HCT should be considered in all patients who undergo HCT. Follow-up evaluations should be considered according to clinical symptoms, signs and risk factors. Better preventive strategies and treatments remain to be investigated for individual ocular complications after HCT. Both transplant physicians and ophthalmologists should be knowledgeable of non-GVHD ocular complications and provide comprehensive collaborative team care.

Abstract
Purpose of review To review the epidemiology, diagnosis, and management of cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) in the post-combined antiretroviral era (cART) era. Recent findings Although cART has dramatically reduced CMVR incidence and morbidity in the HIV population, CMVR continues to cause significant vision loss in both HIV and non-HIV patients, especially amongst patients without immune reconstitution. Advances in imaging including ultra-widefield fundus and autofluorescence imaging, optical coherence tomography, and adaptive optics may reflect CMVR activity; however, the diagnosis remains a clinical one. There have been minimal advances in therapy, with several agents no longer available due to market concerns. Summary Despite reduced incidence and morbidity in the post-cART HIV population, CMVR continues to cause vision loss amongst HIV and non-HIV patients. Diagnosis remains primarily clinical, and therapy centers upon immune reconstitution along with systemic and/or intravitreal antivirals. Further studies are necessary to determine whether advanced imaging can influence management, and whether novel antiviral agents or adoptive immune transfer have a role in treatment of drug-resistance CMVR.

Abstract
AIM To compare the clinical manifestation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis and microvascular retinopathy (MVR) in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in China. METHODS A total of 93 consecutive patients with AIDS, including 41 cases of CMV retinitis and 52 cases of MVR were retrospectively reviewed. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) status was recorded. HIV and CMV immunoassay were also tested. CD4+ T-lymphocyte count and blood CMV-DNA test were performed in all patients. Aqueous humor CMV-DNA test was completed in 39 patients. Ophthalmological examinations including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA, by International Standard Vision Chart), intraocular pressure (IOP), slit-lamp biomicroscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy were performed. RESULTS In MVR group, the anterior segment examination was normal in all patients with a mean BCVA of 0.93±0.13. Blood CMV-DNA was 0 (0, 269 000) and 42 patients (80.77%) did not receive HAART. In CMV retinitis group, 13 patients (31.71%) had anterior segment abnormality. The mean BCVA was 0.64±0.35 and blood CMV-DNA was 3470 (0, 1 450 000). Nineteen patients (46.34%) had not received HAART. MVR group and CMV retinitis group the positive rates of aqueous CMV-DNA were 0 and 50%, respectively. Two patients with MVR progressed to CMV retinitis during the follow-up period. CONCLUSION In comparison of CMV, patients with MVR have relatively mild visual function impairment. Careful ophthalmological examination and close follow-up are mandatory, especially for patients who have systemic complications, positive CMV-DNA test and without received HAART.
