This results in intramedullary destruction and premature lysis of red blood cells in peripheral blood. Among them, patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia face the problem of long-term transfusion and iron chelation therapy, which leads to clinical complications and great economic stress.

Primary resistance to initial treatment and disease recurrence continues to be huge challenge in treating AML. Herein, GSE114868 was analyzed for differentially-expressed lncRNAs between AML patients' mononucleated cells and healthy normal control mononucleated cells and 191 lncRNAs were significantly deregulated in AML patients' mononucleated cells.

Objective: To calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of recombinant human coagulation factor Ⅷ using myPKFiT in patients with severe hemophilia A, and provide an individualized treatment plan for patients.
Methods: A total of 42 patients with severe hemophilia A who were treated with recombinant human coagulation factor Ⅷ were included from January 2021 to December 2021. myPKFiT was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of FⅧ, and the individualized treatment plan for hemophilia A patients was formulated.
A meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of burn wounds and to provide a scientific basis for clinical drug therapy. We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang databases to identify randomised controlled trials (RCTs) on PRP in treating burn wounds, with the control group being treated with conventional treatments and the intervention group being treated with PRP alone or combined with PRP on the basis of the control group. The search duration was each database's inception to September 2023.

Previously, a few studies have shown that ticlopidine can induce liver injury, but the exact mechanism of hepatotoxicity remains unclear. Oxidative stress, metabolic disorders, hepatocyte apoptosis, lipid peroxidation, and inflammatory responses can all lead to hepatic liver damage, which can cause hepatotoxicity.

Immunothrombosis is a mechanism of defense of the organism against pathogenic microorganisms that increases their recognition, limitation, and clearance and is part of the innate immune defense. Physiological immunothrombosis is beneficial to the body against the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms, but when immunothrombosis is out of control, it is easy to cause thrombotic diseases, thus, causing unpredictable consequences to the body. Neutrophils play a pivotal role in this process.

Objective: To investigate the effect of ursane triterpenoids 3β,19α-dihydroxyursu-12-ene-23,28-dicarboxylic acid (Rotundioic acid, RA) on the sensitivity of adriamycin-resistant K562 cells (K562/ADM Cell) anti-tumor drug, and to explore the effect and mechanism of RA on the multidrug resistance of K562/ADM cells.
Methods: CCK-8 method was used to detect the effect of RA on the sensitivity of K562 cells and K562/ADM cells to anti-tumor drug. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot were used to detect the expression level of mRNA and the protein in K562 and K562/ADM cells, and the effect of RA on the expression of MDR1 mRNA and P-gp in K562/ADM cells was also detected; Western blot was used to detect the expression of p-JNK, p-p38 and p-ERK1/2 in K562/ADM cells.
Inflammation and coagulation are two important processes implicated in venous thromboembolism (VTE). 15-epi-lipoxin A (15-epi-LXA) is the epimer of LXA, a small lipid molecule, is known to play a key role in the resolution of inflammation. This study aimed to demonstrate whether 15-epi-LXA could suppress the inflammatory factor tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)-induced upregulation of tissue factor (TF), an important regulator of the blood coagulation cascade, and evaluated the possible underlying mechanisms.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFRationale: The differential diagnosis of conditions manifesting as bone and joint pain is complex. Although many individuals with acute leukemia experience bone pain, lumbosacral pain as an early feature of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is rare.
Patient Concerns: Here we report a case of an adult who presented with a 7-month history of persistent lumbosacral pain which had become more severe during the previous month.
Background: Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α can upregulate the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, an inhibitor of fibrinolysis. Adiponectin (Adp) antagonizes TNF-α by negatively regulating its expression in various tissues. In the present study, the ability of Adp to suppress TNF-α-induced PAI-1 upregulation and the underlying mechanisms were evaluated.

Objective: To explore the expression and significance of NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis associated speck like protein containing a CRAD (ASC) and absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) of patients with acute leukemia.
Methods: The petipheral blood samples of 19 patients with ALL and 41 patients with ANLL as the AL group (each 20 cases of newly diagnosed, relapsed and complete remission group) and 20 cases of non-hematologic malignancies as the control group were collected from July 2013 to July 2014 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical University. The expression levels of NLRP3, ASC and AIM2 in peripheral blood plasma were determined by ELISA.

Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) is defined as a class of transcripts more than 200 nucleotides in length and without the protein-coding function. It has been found for years, however, that little is known about the potential role of LncRNA in humans. But recent studies showed that LncRNA can regulate the coding-gene expression and participate in effects of human body.

Objective: To explore the expression of high mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in patients with acute leukemia and its significance.
Method: 20 samples of bone marrow and peripheral blood from each acute leukemia groups (newly diagnozed, relapsed and complete remission groups) and 20 samples as control from patients with no-hematologic malignancies were collected. The expression level of HMGB1 in peripheral blood plasma was determined by ELISA; HMGB1 and NF-κB level in mononuclear cells were examined by RT-PCR.
