These dru are contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity. Hydroxychloroquine is contraindicated in patients with porphyria (a group of serious inherited disorders affecting the bone marrow or the liver), psoriasis (chronic skin disorder), and retinal disease (may cause irreversible retinal damage). MTX is contraindicated during pregnancy because it is a Pregnancy Category X dmg and may cause birth defects...

There are many causes of the clinical condition referred to as anaemia. One particular type, whose cause can be traced to a genuine metabolic defect is megaloblastic anaemia and is due to a deficiency of the vitamins B12 (cobalamin) and/or folate. These vitamins are required for normal cell division in all tissues, but the rapid production of red cells makes them more susceptible to deficiency. In megaloblastic anaemia the blood haemoglobin concentration falls the synthesis of haem is not impaired. Examination of the blood reveals the appearance of larger then normal cells called macrocytes and megaloblasts are found in the bone marrow. 

SCIDGeneTherapy Trial Infantswithsevere combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID, bubble boy syndrome) have a gene defect that leads to a complete lack of white blood cells. Without treatment, these infants die from comphcations of infectious diseases during the first few years of life. The only treatment currently approved for this condition is a bone marrow transplant. 

Inpus erythematosus A chronic inflammatory disease of connective tissue, affecting the skin and internal organs, lymphoma A malignant tumor of the lymph nodes, multiple sclerosis A disease of the nervous system, myelodysplasia Abnormal or defective formation of the bone marrow. Mycoplasma Minute primitive bacteria without a rigid cell wall. Mycoplasma pneumoniae causes atypical pneumonia in humans, myeloma cells Malignant tumor cells. 

In practical veterinary the SC can be used in substitution therapy in case of different pathologies. The methods of making 3-D cell construction have been already invented and are applied for the substitution of large bone, skin, and cartilage defects. The transplantation of bone marrow stem cells is used in the case of animal oncology diseases. The methods of cell therapy with the usage of SC are approbated in the treatment of autoimmune and endocrine diseases of domestic animals.

Fig. 1. The immunodeficiency states. The ways in which the various defects are related can be appreciated by considering the evolution of lymph-haematopoietic lineages in the bone marrow.

Megaloblastic anemia is characterized by the appearance of large cells in the bone marrow and blood due to defective maturation of hematopoietic cells. Folic acid or vitamin B12 deficiency will result in this type of anemia. Malabsorption, impaired use, chronic infections, and drugs can lead to folic acid or vitamin B12 deficiency.
