  • To highlight the role of blood banks in advancing this novel therapy.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical data on mononuclear cell transfusions.
  • Analysis of the technical contributions of blood banks to cell processing and storage.

Main Results:

  • Clinical experience with lymphocyte and monocyte hemotherapy is nascent.
  • Blood banks have been instrumental in the technical development of mononuclear cell therapy.
  • Blood banks are positioned as essential partners for future advancements.

Conclusions:

  • Mononuclear cell therapy represents a novel frontier in transfusion medicine.
  • Collaboration with blood banks is crucial for the successful implementation and expansion of adoptive immunotherapy.
