In order to investigate the mechanism of acute lymphoblastic leukemic cell malignant proliferation, the expressions of hMSH2 mRNA and mutation P53 (mtP53) protein in bone marrow cells of de novo acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) were determined by in situ hybridization and immunocytochemical methods. The results showed the that percentage of positive cell with hMSH2 mRNA expression was (32.88 +/- 11.46)% in the de novo ALL group and (64.22 +/- 8.51)% in the control group. The percentage of positive cell with mtP53 protein expression was (29.25 +/- 9.45)% in the de novo ALL group, and (12.63 +/- 6.66)% in the control group. There was a significant negative correlation between the positive percentages of hMSH2 mRNA expression and mtP53 protein expression (r = -0.45, P < 0.05). It is concluded that defective MSH2 mRNA expression plays an important role in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, mtP53 protein mutation plays an important role in the development of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the hMSH2 mRNA defect can lead to accumulation of the mutant P53 protein in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and both jointly promote the pathogenesis of ALL.

Background: Sleep disturbances are common among individuals with leukemia, and they can significantly impact their overall well-being. Acupuncture and foot reflexology, two alternative therapies rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, have gained recognition for their potential to address sleep issues and alleviate associated symptoms.

Methods: This single blinded, three-groups randomized controlled trial was navigated at Tohid Hospital, involving 132 leukemia patients divided into acupuncture (n = 44), foot reflexology (n = 44), and control (n = 44) groups via random card selection.

Rearrangements of cytokine receptor-like factor 2 gene (CRLF2) are present in ∼50% of B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-ALL) with BCR::ABL1-like features. Herein, we report three patients with CRLF2-rearranged mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). All three cases were B/myeloid MPAL in young patients harboring P2RY8::CRLF2 or IGH::CRLF2 with additional genomic alterations in signaling (JAK and RAS) and cell cycle (CDKN2A/B) pathways, a genomic profile similar to that in BCR::ABL1-like B-ALL.

Hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes is a hallmark of leukemia. The hypomethylating agent decitabine covalently binds, and degrades DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1). Structural similarities within DNA-binding domains of DNMT1, and the leukemic driver histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A) suggest that decitabine might also affect the latter.

Prominent efficacy and good safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T therapy in relapsed/refractory adult B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Bone Marrow Transplantation Center of The First Affiliated Hospital Liangzhu Laboratory, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, No. 79 Qingchun Road, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.

Background: Sequential CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy offers a promising approach to antigen-loss relapse in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL); however, research in adults remains limited.

Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T cell therapy in adult patients with R/R B-ALL between November 2020 and November 2023 (ChiCTR2100053871). Key endpoints included the adverse event incidence, overall survival (OS), and leukemia-free survival (LFS).
