Selective Translational Control by PABPC1 Phase Separation Regulates Blast Crisis and Therapy Resistance in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

[Nature Cell Biology] High-throughput CRISPR–Cas9 screening identified poly(A) binding protein cytoplasmic 1 (PABPC1) as a driver for chronic myeloid leukemia progression in the blast crisis stage.

The Proto-Oncogenic miR-106a-363 Cluster Enhances Adverse Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia through Mitochondrial Activation

[Leukemia] Scientists investigated the clinical and functional role of the miR-106a-363 cluster in adult AML. Overexpression of the miR-106a-363 cluster and its individual members in a murine AML model significantly accelerated leukemogenesis.

Loss of Golga7 Suppresses Oncogenic Nras-Driven Leukemogenesis without Detectable Toxicity in Adult Mice

[Advanced Science] The authors used a Golga7 conditional knockout mouse line to assess the effects of Golga7 on the development and progression of NrasG12D-mutant chronic myelomonocytic leukemia-like myeloproliferative neoplasm.

A Gremlin 1-Expressing Splenic Niche Cell Population Restrains Chronic Myeloid Leukemia by Antagonizing the BMP Pathway

[Nature Cancer] Scientists reported that induced expression of the secreted protein Gremlin 1 in a mouse model restrained chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) progression and synergized with tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment, whereas blockade of Gremlin 1 promoted CML development.

Myeloid Fatty Acid Metabolism Activates Neighboring Hematopoietic Stem Cells to Promote Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

[Circulation] Investigators reported evidence that patients with cardiometabolic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction exhibited elevated peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells.

SMYD3 Activates Fatty Acid β-oxidation to Promote Self-Renewal of Leukemia Stem Cells

[Cancer Research] Scientists validated the critical role of the histone methyltransferase SET and MYND domain containing 3 (SMYD3) in the maintenance of leukemia stem cells in chronic myeloid leukemia.

Impact of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation and Quizartinib in Newly Diagnosed Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and FMS-Like Tyrosine Kinase 3-Internal Tandem Duplications in the...

[Haematologica] QuANTUM-First was a randomized Phase III trial in newly diagnosed FLT3-ITDQpositive AML patients treated with quizartinib or placebo plus standard induction and consolidation chemotherapy and/or allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, followed by single-agent maintenance therapy.

Bristol Myers Squibb Receives Approval from the European Commission to Expand Use of CAR T Cell Therapy Breyanzi for Relapsed or Refractory Follicular Lymphoma

[Bristol Myers Squibb] Bristol Myers Squibb announced that the European Commission has granted approval to Breyanzi®, a CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy.

Single-Cell Panleukemia Signatures of HSPC-Like Blasts Predict Drug Response and Clinical Outcome

[Blood] Through the integration of single-cell multiomics with bulk RNA-Seq and clinical datasets, scientists uncovered a chemotherapy-resistant subpopulation that resembled hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells and was associated with poor clinical outcomes across all subtypes investigated.

A TIM-3-Fc Decoy Secreted by Engineered T Cells Improves CD19 CAR-T Cell Therapy in B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

[Blood] Researchers comprehensively characterized the expression of immune checkpoint receptors and their ligands in leukemic blasts, T cells, and mesenchymal stromal cells from B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia bone marrow (BM) samples at diagnosis and relapse, comparing them with age-matched healthy BM controls.

Pacylex Pharmaceuticals Announces the First Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Patient Dosed with Zelenirstat in a New Phase I/II Clinical Trial

[Pacylex Pharmaceuticals, Inc.] Pacylex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced the launch of a new clinical trial of oral zelenirstat in refractory/relapsed AML patients and the dosing of the first patient.

Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant for Myelofibrosis and Myelodysplastic Syndromes: A Contemporary Review

[American Journal of Hematology] The authors provide a contemporary review on HSC transplantation for myelodysplastic neoplasms and myelofibrosis, highlighting up-to-date insights into disease biology, standard of care, and recommendations, as well as open avenues.
