Objective: To explore the effect and toxicity profile of recombinant human interleukin 11(rhIL-11) on the platelet after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with leukemia.
Methods: Twenty-four patients with acute or chronic leukemia treated by allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) were randomly divided into a test group and a control group. The patients in the test group were treated with rhIL-11 since the 13th day after PBSCT (1.5mg/d),while the control group were given symptomatic treatment.
Results: The average time for the platelet to recover to the level of 20 x 10(9)/L was 20.8 days in the test group, and 26.0 days in control group respectively, there was significant difference (P<0.01). The average time for the platelet to recover to the level of 50 x 10(9)/L was 25.7 days in the test group, and 32.3 days in the control group respectively, there was also significant difference (P<0.01). The average time for the platelet transfusion was 2.2 in the test group, 4.1 in the control group, and there was significantly different (P<0.01). The average number of megakaryocytes was 12.2 in the test group, 4.8 in the control group on 30th day after the transplantation,and there was significant difference(P<0.01). The main side effects of rhIL-11 were nausea, vomit, debility, headache, dizzy and pain of injection site, and the degree was all Iapproximately II grade.
Conclusion: rhIL-11 has definite recuperative effect on the recovery of the platelet after PBSCT. There is little side effect, and it can be accepted.

One hallmark of cancer is the upregulation and dependency on glucose metabolism to fuel macromolecule biosynthesis and rapid proliferation. Despite significant pre-clinical effort to exploit this pathway, additional mechanistic insights are necessary to prioritize the diversity of metabolic adaptations upon acute loss of glucose metabolism. Here, we investigated a potent small molecule inhibitor to Class I glucose transporters, KL-11743, using glycolytic leukemia cell lines and patient-based model systems.

Background: In this study, we aimed to explore the association between baseline and early changes in the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the 30-day mortality rate in patients having anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5)-positive dermatomyositis with interstitial lung disease (DM-ILD).
Methods: Overall, 263 patients with anti-MDA5 DM-ILD from four centers in China were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the impact of baseline NLR on the 30-day mortality rate in patients with anti-MDA5-positive DM-ILD.

Background: Pathogenic or null mutations in WRN helicase is a cause of premature aging disease Werner syndrome (WS). WRN is known to protect somatic cells including adult stem cells from premature senescence. Loss of WRN in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) not only drives the cells to premature senescence but also significantly impairs the function of the stem cells in tissue repair or regeneration.

Background: Rex rabbit is famous for its silky and soft fur coat, a characteristic predominantly attributed to its hair follicles. Numerous studies have confirmed the crucial roles of mRNAs and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in regulating key cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and immunity. However, their involvement in the regulation of the hair cycle in Rex rabbits remains unknown.

There are few in vitro models available to study microglial physiology in a homeostatic context. Recent approaches include the human induced pluripotent stem cell model, but these can be challenging for large-scale assays and may lead to batch variability. To advance our understanding of microglial biology while enabling scalability for high-throughput assays, we developed an inducible immortalized murine microglial cell line using a tetracycline expression system.
