In double cord blood transplantation, one unit engrafts and the other is rejected—but the losing unit might be doing more than previously imagined. A 2025 Blood Advances study from the Eurocord–EBMT registry reveals how the immunological battle between cord units can be redirected against leukaemia, particularly when the patient and losing unit share the right HLA mismatches. In this episode, we unpack the elegant biology behind this unintended vaccine effect, explore the surprising lack of e...
