Abstract

Editorial: Current Challenges in Immune and Other Acquired Cytopenias of Childhood.

Highlights

  • The Editorial on the Research Topic Current Challenges in Immune and Other Acquired Cytopenias of Childhood

  • Chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), Evans syndrome (ES), aplastic anemia, etc., are descriptive terms for immune-mediated cytopenias in pediatric hematology that may be summarized as a group of disorders of immune dysregulation based on ill-defined poly- and epigenetic diatheses toward autoimmunity and monogenic primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs); a growing number of which is being identified with next-generation sequencing technologies

  • The indication for stem cell transplantation will always predominantly depend on the clinical course and status of a patient, the definition of a clear-cut pathomechanism potentially offers a guidance toward targeted therapy approaches
