Background: Despite recurrent and activating mutations, including MYD88, CXCR4, ARID1A, KMT2D, and CD79B were identified, the genetic basis for Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (WM) and the risk of progression of IgM MGUS to WM remain to be fully elucidated.

Methods: We investigated the mutation status of WM (n = 8), sWM (n = 7), and IgM MGUS (n = 5) patients, by performing high-throughput targeted AmpliSeq NGS on 117 target genes. Specifically, we analyzed the CD19+ cells from 15 WM/sWM patients and five IgM MGUS patients.

Article Synopsis
  • MYD88 is a key protein involved in immune signaling and is commonly mutated (L265P) in blood cancers, leading to tumor progression.
  • Researchers discovered lasalocid-A, a small molecule that selectively kills lymphoma cells with the MYD88 L265P mutation by promoting the degradation of the mutated protein.
  • The study showed that lasalocid-A not only effectively works in lab models but also has potential benefits for treating resistant lymphoma types and can enhance the effects of other cancer drugs.

Oncogenic transformation of normal cells is caused by mutations and chromosomal abnormalities in cancer-related genes. Enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) is a malignant B-cell lymphoma caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV) infection in cattle. Although a small fraction of BLV-infected cattle develops EBL after a long latent period, the mechanisms for oncogenesis in EBL cattle remain largely unknown.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study involving 61 TLBCL patients analyzed their genetic characteristics compared to nodal DLBCL and primary CNS large B-cell lymphomas; findings indicated that TLBCL has fewer copy number changes but more somatic mutations than nodal DLBCL.
  • * The results highlight a unique genetic profile for TLBCL, with most cases classified as MCD, indicating genetic diversity, suggesting that this lymphoma type warrants targeted treatment strategies due to its distinct biology.
