It is now well recognized that mechanical signature of cells can give information on their physio-pathological state. Here, we will illustrate this concept by two different microsystems able to provide the mechanical phenotype of human cells.First, we know that the membrane of healthy Red Blood Cells (RBCs) possesses a unique structure responsible ...
Red Blood Cells flowing in a microchannel undergo dispersion in the flow direction due to the nonuniform velocity profile while transverse migration due to cell-wall interactions tends to focus them along the center line. This results in a dispersion of RBC transit times through a capillary that is directly related to their transverse migration pro...

Purpose: To assess the cross-sectional association between dietary indexes (DI) that underlie, respectively, the Nutri-score (NS), the proposed Canadian 'High In' Symbol (CHIL) and the Diabetes Canada Clinical Practice Guidelines (DCCP) with food consumption, nutrient intakes and metabolic markers.Methods: 1836 adults (18-74 years) participating in...

The use of chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) has increased since their approval in the treatment of several relapsed/refractory B cell malignancies. The management of their specific toxicities, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), tends to be better understood and well-defined. During the twelfth edition of practice harmonization worksh...
Background: Therapeutic options for CD19+ relapses after anti-CD19 CAR-T cells are still debated; second infusion of anti-CD19 CAR-T cells, therapeutic antibodies, or targeted therapies can be discussed. Here, we explore the immunophenotyping and lysis sensitivity of CD19+ ALL relapse after anti-CD19 CAR-T cells and propose different therapeutic op...

Due to the fact that there are scientific discussions about the significance of gene polymorphisms in the risk of developing cardiovascular complications after a percutaneous coronary intervention, it is of interest to evaluate the genetic predictors of the development of cardiovascular events. This study is a molecular genetic study. Association w...
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is defined by a low platelet count that can trigger potentially life-threatening haemorrhages. Three-quarters of adult patients exhibit persistent or chronic disease and require second-line treatments. Among these, rituximab, an anti-CD20 antibody, has yielded valuable results, with global responses in 60% of patients ...
The complement system is part of the innate immunity. An increased activation or a loss of the regulation of this fine-tuned cascade is involved in a variety of hematological diseases. During the last decade, anti-C5 therapies have revolutionized the management and prognosis of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic and ur...
