Musset : la leçon des proverbes
2015
OS nat Axe 4; National audience; L'exemple concret de trois proverbes, un en vers, Les Marrons du feu, et deux en prose Il ne faut jurer de rien et Il faut qu'une porte soit ouverte ou fermée, permet de découvrir le théâtre en liberté que Musset a pratiqué à sa façon en inventant littéralement un nouveau genre littéraire : le proverbe. La gageure poétique et dramatique que tient ici Musset est de défaire le dire pour le refaire à neuf dans sa polyphonie.

Bone marrow-derived progenitors are greatly reduced in patients with severe COPD and low-BMI.
2009
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients have reduced circulating hemopoietic progenitors. We hypothesized that severity of COPD parallels the decrease in progenitors and that the reduction in body mass index (BMI) could be associated with more severe bone marrow dysfunction. We studied 39 patients with moderate to very severe COPD (18 with low-BMI and 21 with normal-BMI) and 12 controls. Disease severity was associated to a greater reduction in circulating progenitors. Proangiogenetic and inflammatory markers correlated with disease severity parameters. Compared to normal-BMI patients, low-BMI patients showed: greater reduction in circulating progenitors; higher VEGF-A, VEGF-C…
Asymptomatic Amyloidosis at the Time of Diagnostic Bone Marrow Biopsy in Newly Diagnosed Patients with Multiple Myeloma and Smoldering Multiple Myelo…
2009
Abstract Abstract 2803 Poster Board II-779 Background. The rate of asymptomatic amyloidosis (asym-amyloidosis) detected in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) or smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) is unknown. This topic is significant because unrecognized AL may be associated with increased mortality may change the patient's management. The objective of the present investigation was to evaluate the number and clinical significance of asym-amyloidosis in MM and SM patients at the time of the diagnostic bone marrow (BM) biopsy for MM. Materials and Methods. The study population was selected from the Mayo Clinic Dysproteinemia database and consisted of consecutive patients with …
Relapse risk after autologous transplantation in patients with newly diagnosed myeloma is not related with infused tumor cell load and the outcome is…
2006
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) multicentre randomized phase III study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of CD34+ selection in newly diagnosed myeloma patients undergoing autologous transplantation. DESIGN AND METHODS: One hundred and eleven patients responsive to initial chemotherapy were randomized to receive CD34+ selected (arm A) or unselected PBPC (arm B) after conditioning with high-dose melphalan and TBI. ASO-PCR was used to assess purging efficacy and reinfused tumor load. Tumor load could be assessed in 59 patients. RESULTS: CD34+ selection gave a median tumor cell depletion of 2.2 logs (0.77-5.96). No tumor ce…
Inhibition of Lymphocyte Proliferation during Parasitic Infection with Nippostrongylus Brasiliensis
1979
It is now well established that parasitic infections can lead to the production of high titers of IgE anti parasitic antibodies in experimental animals and in man (1,2). One of the best studied experimental systems involves the ability of the nematode parasite Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (N.B.) to stimulate a high titer reaginic antibody response to worm antigens in the rat. These studies were extended by the reports of Orr and Blair that parasitic infections can cause non specific proliferation of IgE antibody response against antigens unrelated to those of the parasite (3). The amplification of an already existing IgE antibody response can be induced before infection by inoculating the a…
Monoclonal Gammopathies and the Bone Marrow Microenvironment: From Bench to Bedside and Then Back Again
2023
Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable hematologic malignancy characterized by a multistep evolutionary pathway, with an initial phase called monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), potentially evolving into the symptomatic disease, often preceded by an intermediate phase called “smoldering” MM (sMM). From a biological point of view, genomic alterations (translocations/deletions/mutations) are already present at the MGUS phase, thus rendering their role in disease evolution questionable. On the other hand, we currently know that changes in the bone marrow microenvironment (TME) could play a key role in MM evolution through a progressive shift towards a pro-inflammatory and…
Regenerative Capacity of Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs), Comparison with Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs).
2019
Adipose tissue is now on the top one of stem cell sources regarding its accessibility, abundance, and less painful collection procedure when compared to other sources. The adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) that it contains can be maintained and expanded in culture for long periods of time without losing their differentiation capacity, leading to large cell quantities being increasingly used in cell therapy purposes. Many reports showed that ADSCs-based cell therapy products demonstrated optimal efficacy and efficiency in some clinical indications for both autologous and allogeneic purposes, hence becoming considered as potential tools for replacing, repairing, and regenerating dead or dama…
Identification and characterization of the somatic stem cell niche in the human endometrium
2013
El endometrio es la capa de mucosa que recubre el interior del útero y consiste en un epitelio simple cilíndrico con o sin cilios, glándulas y un estroma rico en tejido conjuntivo y altamente vascularizado. Durante cada ciclo menstrual, el endometrio sufre una serie de cambios en respuesta a fluctuaciones en los niveles de las hormonas esteroideas procedentes del ovario. El endometrio se divide histológicamente en dos capas, la capa basal, la cual ni responde a las hormonas esteroideas ni sufre descamación, pudiendo regenerar una nueva capa funcional en el siguiente ciclo menstrual. Mientras que la capa funcional si responde tanto a la progesterona como el estradiol, descamándose durante la…
