OBJECTIVE: Chronic graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) has certain similarities with autoimmune
diseases and is associated with the development of various autoantibodies in some
patients. In this study, we analyzed the occurrence of autoantibodies in 63 patients surviving
longer than 3 months after an allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT),
with the aim of detecting a possible association between occurrence of autoantibodies and
development of chronic GVHD and immune recovery after HSCT. PATIENTS AND …
