In acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells harboring the promyelocytic leukemia retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARalpha) chimeric protein, retinoic acid (RA)-induced differentiation is triggered through a PML-RARalpha signaling resulting in activation of critical target genes. Induced differentiation of APL cells is always preceded by withdrawal from the cell cycle and commitment events leading to terminal differentiation. Here we have identified the human ankyrin repeat-containing protein with a suppressor of cytokine signaling box-2 (ASB-2) cDNA, as a novel RA-induced gene in APL cells. PML-RARalpha strongly enhanced RA-induced ASB-2 mRNA expression. In myeloid leukemia cells, ASB-2 expression induced growth inhibition and chromatin condensation recapitulating early events critical to RA-induced differentiation of APL cells.

Many cellular functions depend on the physical properties of the cell's environment. Many bacteria have different types of surface appendages to enable adhesion and motion on various surfaces. is a social soil bacterium with two distinctly regulated modes of surface motility, termed the social motility mode, driven by type IV pili, and the adventurous motility mode, based on focal adhesion complexes.

Donor cell leukemia (DCL), in which malignancy evolves from donor's stem cells, is an infrequent complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) derived from donor cell is extremely rare and only four cases have been reported to date. Herein we report a case of donor cell-derived APL developing 32 months after haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation using posttransplant cyclophosphamide for myelodysplastic syndromes.

Both astroglia and microglia show region-specific distribution in CNS and often maladapt to age-associated alterations within their niche. Studies on autopsied substantia nigra (SN) of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and experimental models propose gliosis as a trigger for neuronal loss. Epidemiological studies propose an ethnic bias in PD prevalence, since Caucasians are more susceptible than non-whites.

Synthetic cells offer a versatile platform for addressing biomedical and environmental challenges, due to their modular design and capability to mimic cellular processes such as biosensing, intercellular communication, and metabolism. Constructing synthetic cells capable of stimuli-responsive secretion is vital for applications in targeted drug delivery and biosensor development. Previous attempts at engineering secretion for synthetic cells have been confined to non-specific cargo release via membrane pores, limiting the spatiotemporal precision and specificity necessary for selective secretion.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with retinoic acid receptor gamma (RARG) fusions, which exhibits clinical features resembling acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), has been identified as a new subtype with poor clinical outcomes. The underlying mechanism of RARG-fusion leukemia remains poorly understood, and needs to be explored urgently to instruct developing effective therapeutic strategies. Here, using the most prevalent RARG fusion, CPSF6-RARG (CR), as a representative, we reveal that the CR fusion, enhances the expansion of myeloid progenitors, impairs their maturation and synergizes with RAS mutations to drive more aggressive myeloid malignancies.
