Targeting the CD74 signaling axis suppresses inflammation and rescues defective hematopoiesis in -familial platelet disorder.

Familial platelet disorder (FPD) is associated with germline mutations, establishing a preleukemic state and increasing the risk of developing leukemia. Currently, there are no intervention strategies to prevent leukemia progression. Single-cell RNA sequencing ( = 10) combined with functional analysis of samples from patients with -FPD ( > 75) revealed that FPD hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) displayed increased myeloid differentiation and suppressed megakaryopoiesis because of increased activation of prosurvival and inflammatory pathways.

Chimeric antigen receptor copies in cell-free DNA predict relapse in aggressive B-cell lymphoma patients treated with CAR T-cell therapy.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has emerged as a transformative treatment for aggressive B-cell lymphomas (ABCL), However, about half of patients relapse, most of them early. This study investigates the detection of CAR copies in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) as a potential predictive biomarker of early relapse (<6 months) to improve patient management. In this research, we have consecutively selected 73 ABCL patients treated with anti-CD19 CAR T-cells, analysing CAR levels in peripheral blood and other clinical variables.

The co-receptor Neuropilin-1 enhances proliferation in inv(16) acute myeloid leukemia via VEGF signaling.

Oncogenic programs regulate the proliferation and maintenance of cancer stem cells, and can define pharmacologic dependencies. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with the chromosome inversion 16 (inv(16)), the fusion oncoprotein CBFβ::MYH11 regulates pathways associated with leukemia stem cell activity. Here we demonstrate that expression of Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) is regulated by the fusion oncoprotein, and promotes AML expansion.

Antiangiogenic Potential of an Olive Oil Extract: Insights from a Proteomic Study.

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), a staple of the Mediterranean diet, is rich in phenolic compounds recognized for their potent bioactive effects, including anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties. However, its effects on vascular health remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we examined the impact of a "picual" EVOO extract from Jaén, Spain, on endothelial cells.

activation triggers hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell death resulting in bone marrow failure in mice.

Human bone marrow failure (BMF) syndromes result from the loss of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC), and this loss has been attributed to cell death; however, the cell death triggers, and mechanisms remain unknown. During BMF, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and interferon-γ (IFNγ) increase. These ligands are known to induce necroptosis, an inflammatory form of cell death mediated by RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL.
