AI Article Synopsis
- The text discusses fascinating imaging characteristics observed on a FDG-PET scan of a patient with bone metastases from a rare tumor.
- The initial scans were complicated by high bone marrow activity due to hematopoietic factor treatment, making the lesions difficult to detect.
- Follow-up imaging, including MRI and CT scans, confirmed the presence of hypermetabolic lesions on the subsequent FDG-PET scan.
Article Abstract
We describe interesting imaging features on a FDG-PET scan in a patient with bony metastases from a rare tumor. The lesions were obscured by intense bone marrow activity after the administration of hematopoietic factor at the time of diagnosis. Correlative MRI, CT scan, and pathology findings have also been illustrated. Follow-up FDG-PET scan demonstrated the hypermetabolic lesions.

Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) has been shown in mammalia to activate a series of signal transduction systems and exert various biological effects, such as controlling the differentiation, proliferation, and survival of granulocytes, promoting the movement of hematopoietic stem cells from the bone marrow to the bloodstream, and triggering the development of T cells, dendritic cells, and immune tolerance in transplants. In this study, the mRNA of flounder G-CSF (PoG-CSF) and its receptor (PoGCSFR) were detected and widely expressed in all examined tissues with the highest expression in peritoneal cells. G-CSF and GCSFR cells were observed to be abundantly distributed in the leukocytes from the peritoneal cavity, followed by head kidney.

B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with the fusion gene has a poor prognosis, and the mortality rate exceeds 90%, particularly in cases of extramedullary relapse (EMR). Herein, we present a case of a 46-year-old male patient who developed relapsed B-ALL with . The patient initially achieved a complete remission (CR) after induction therapy and underwent haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Introduction: Diesel exhaust particles (DEP) have been proven to aggravate asthma pathogenesis. We previously demonstrated that concurrent exposure to house dust mite (HDM) and DEP in mice increases both eosinophils and neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and also results in higher levels of neutrophil-recruiting chemokines and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation compared to sole HDM, sole DEP or saline exposure. We aimed to evaluate whether treatment with anti-IL-5 can alleviate the asthmatic features in this mixed granulocytic asthma model.

Oxidative stress diminishes the functionality of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) as age advances, with heightened reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels exacerbating DNA damage, cellular senescence, and hematopoietic impairment. DDO1002, a potent inhibitor of the NRF2-KEAP1 pathway, modulates the expression of antioxidant genes. Yet, the extent to which it mitigates hematopoietic decline post-total body irradiation (TBI) or in the context of aging remains to be elucidated.

Intra-patient variability in immunosuppressive blood drug concentrations is a potential biomarker in managing organ transplant patients. However, the association between the time in therapeutic range of tacrolimus blood concentrations and its efficacy in preventing graft-versus-host disease remains unknown. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between the time in therapeutic range of tacrolimus blood concentrations and its efficacy in acute graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
