Septic acute kidney injury (AKI) is a fatal disease in the intensive care unit, with ferroptosis playing a crucial role in its pathogenesis. Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) has been implicated in septic-induced AKI inflammation and apoptosis. However, its regulatory role in ferroptosis and underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

In rare circumstances, CRS may be refractory to tocilizumab and/or corticosteroids, a new treatment is needed for the management of CRS.
Patient Concerns: We present a case of a 20-year-old male patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia developed CRS after CD19/CD22 bispecific CAR-T treatment.
LncRNA PVT1 has been demonstrated to be upregulated in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients and indicates a poor prognosis. Nevertheless, its role in AML remains obscure. This study investigated the regulatory role and potential mechanisms of PVT1 in the progression of AML.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAcute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is the most common acute leukemia in adults. Despite great progress has been made in this field, the pathogenesis of AML is still not fully understood. We report here the biological role of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 5 (SNHG5) in the pathogenesis of AML and the underlying mechanisms.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLong non-coding RNA (lncRNA) MALAT1 has been confirmed to function as an oncogene in various solid tumors. MALAT1 level has been shown to be upregulated in relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients, but the mechanism is unclear. This study aims to investigate the functional roles and underlying mechanisms of MALAT1 in ALL.

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) H19 is associated with multiple tumorigenesis and is increased in MM, but the underlying mechanism of H19 in MM is unclear. In this study, the expression of H19, microRNA 152-3p (miR-152-3p), and BRD4 in MM patients was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFMultiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable hematologic cancer, accompanied by excessive osteoclast formation and inflammatory cytokine secretion. The mechanisms by which bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) protein inhibitor I-BET151 regulates osteoclast differentiation and inflammatory cytokine secretion in MM are largely unknown. : The isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells from normal or patients with MM were treated with receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and M-CSF to induce osteoclast differentiation.

Objective: To investigate the effect of CXCR4 gene on the proliferation, adhesion, invasion and tumorigenicity of a human monocytic leukemic cell line SHI-1.
Methods: The lentivirus vector silencing the expression of CXCR4 was constructed for infection of SHI-1 cells silencing expression of CXCR4 in SHI-1 cells. The expression of CXCR4, MMP-2 and MMP-9 was detected by real time PCR.

Objective: To determine the frequency paired-box domain 5 (PAX5) gene alterations in B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) harboring 9p abnormalities and its implication for clinical prognosis.
Methods: Bacterial artificial chromosomes RP11-344B23 and RP11-652D9 encompassing the PAX5 gene were selected. DNA was extracted with conventional method and labeled with fluorescein by nicking transition.

Objective: To explore the morphology, immunophenotype, cytogenetics and clinical features of TCF3-PBX1 fusion gene positive adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
Methods: R banding was used to analyze conventional cytogenetics (CC), interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (iFISH) and RT-PCR to detect the TCF3-PBX1 fusion gene, and flow cytometry to immunophenotype. The clinical and laboratory features and long-term follow-up of the patients were analyzed.
