Technique Helps
Transplants

Researchers from Israel and Italy
have developed a method that
may significantly improve the
chalices for people with leukemia
to receive potentially life-saving
bone marrow transplants from
unmatched donors.
The technique, developed over
the past eight years by Professor
Yair Reisner of the Weizmann
Institute's Department of Mem-
brane Research and Biophysics
and Professor Massimo F.
Martelli of the University of Pe-
rugia's Policlinico Monteluce in
Perugia, Italy, is based on giving
the patient megadoses of his or
her own marrow, thus minimiz-
ing the risk of rejection.
The patient is given hormon-
al drugs called cytokines, which
increase the number of stem cells
in the blood by mobilizing them
from the bone marrow. These
cells can then be collected from
peripheral blood and the re-
maining blood is retransfused
into the patient. The amount of
marrow obtained with this
method can be seven to 10 times
greater than that from the bones.
The amount of marrow obtained
via the usual method — from the
spinal cord — is limited.
Normally, successful bone
marrow transplantation (BMT)
requires that certain character-
istics of the donor and recipient
immune systems be closely
matched in order to avoid rejec-
tion and other complications.
However, fewer than 30 percent
of leukemia patients who might
benefit from BMT have a
matched donor among their sib-
