Stopped: Abandonment of the study project
The purpose of this study is to provide new insights into the pathophysiology of emergency hematopoiesis detected in severe COVID-19 patients. The investigators aim to explore the ability of calprotectin to induce an immunosuppressive myeloid program at the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) level, and to identify the receptor(s) involved in this effect. Since patients with a hematological malignancy demonstrate a very high propensity to develop a severe COVID-19, the investigators will explore how HSPCs collected from patients with a myeloid malignancy respond to calprotectin.
