The latest findings of our laboratory showed that Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) showed a definite effect in regulating the aging of hematopoietic stem cells. Leukemia is a type of malignant hematopoietic tumor in hematopoietic stem cells. There have been no relevant reports about ASP's effect in regulating the aging of leukemia cells. In this study, human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) KG1alpha cell lines in logarithmic growth phase were taken as the study object, and were divided into the ASP group, the cytarabine (Ara-C) group, the ASP + Ara-C group and the control group. The groups were respectively treated with different concentration of ASP, Ara-C and ASP + Ara-C for different periods, with the aim to study the effect of ASP combined with Ara-C in regulating the aging of human acute myeloid leukemia KG1alpha cell lines and its relevant mechanism. The results showed that ASP, Ara-C and ASP + Ara-C could obviously inhibit KG1alpha cell proliferation in vitro, block the cells in G0/G1 phase. The cells showed the aging morphological feature. The percentage of positive stained aging cells was dramatically increased, and could significantly up-regulate the expression of aging-related proteins P16 and RB, which were more obvious in the ASP + Ara-C group. In conclusion, the aging mechanism of KG1alpha cell induced by ASP and Ara-C may be related to the regulation of the expression of aging-related proteins, suggesting that the combined administration of ASP and anticancer drugs plays a better role in the treatment of leukemia .

Purpose: The presence of serious toxicities is a major problem in the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The objective of this research is to evaluate drug-induced liver injury (DILI) during consolidation therapy in childhood ALL.
Methods: Clinical data of pediatric patients who received consolidation therapy between August 2012 and July 2018 were collected.

Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a kind of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) with a highly invasive feature. At present, patients are often treated with CHOP or CHOP-like regimens which is of poor prognosis whilst having high recurrence rate. Once the patient fails to achieve remission or relapse after the first-line treatment, many salvage chemotherapy regimens are always ineffective, and the long-term survival will be difficult to achieve for them.

Background: Acquired glucocorticoid (GC) resistance remains the main obstacle in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy. The aim of the present study was to establish a novel GC-resistant B-ALL cell line and investigate its biological characteristics.
Methods: A cell culture technique was used to establish the GC-resistant cell line from the parental cell, NALM-6.

The antitumor enzyme L-asparaginase (L-Asp) has commonly been used for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. However, the effects of L-Asp on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and their underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, the effects of L-Asp on cell proliferation and apoptosis were investigated using the AML cell lines U937, HL-60 and KG-1a.
