Objective: To explore the effect of Ibrutinib on the chemoresistance mediated by SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis in ALL cells.

Methods: Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of cell line and expression of surface membrane CXCR4, Western blot was used to determine the expression level of CXCR4, ERK and Bcl-xL proteins, qPCR was used to assay the mRNA level of CXCR4.

Results: Ibrutinib enhanced the apoptosis induced by adriamycin(ADR) (17.100±4.3% to 28.133±3.16%); Ibrutinib inhibited the phosphorylation of CXCR4 induced by SDF-1α and with concentration- and time- dependent manner (r=-0.99659, r=-0.99764, r=-0.99980). Ibrutinib inhibited the expression and activity of CXCR4 downstream signaling molecules pERK and BCL-xL.

Conclusion: Ibrutinib can enhance the sensitivity of SUP-B15 to ADR, reverse SDF-1α/CXCR4-mediated chemoresistance in Ph acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells. This mechanism of ibrutinib may be assosiated with inhibiting CXCR4/ERK/BCL-xL.

Purpose: Lumbar puncture is a frequently performed procedure for patients undergoing treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This brief procedure is frequently performed with sedation in young patients but with only local anesthesia in adults. Adolescent and young adult patients may be cared for by physicians with different training backgrounds and sedation preferences, making the utilization of sedation for lumbar punctures variable among providers.

Eosinophilia is rare in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In this report, we present a case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia with marked eosinophilia, whose diagnosis was delayed because of clonorchiasis.

Childhood cancers, with leukemia at the forefront, comprise 97% acute leukemia and 3% chronic leukemia, with 75% of acute leukemias being of lymphoblastic origin. Over the past 50 years, survival rates have witnessed a remarkable increase, progressing from around 10% to achieving cure rates exceeding 90% in certain childhood ALL subgroups with the advent of combined therapies. Between 1999 and 2018, a total of 123 patients diagnosed with B-ALL were initially identified, but after applying exclusion criteria, 105 patients were included in the evaluation, who were treated with COG protocols at our center.

Rationale: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) bloodstream infections are a severe complication resulting from granulocyte deficiency following chemotherapy for hematologic malignancies and have a high mortality rate. However, reports of disseminated organ infections secondary to bloodstream infections are rare.

Patient Concerns And Diagnoses: We report 2 cases of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who both developed CRKP bloodstream infections during the granulocyte deficiency stage following chemotherapy, with 1 case of secondary bacterial liver abscess and 1 case of secondary septic arthritis.

T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-ALL) is a subtype of acute lymphoblastic leukemia characterized by the proliferation of abnormal T-cell precursors. Nelarabine, a purine analog, has been approved as a targeted therapy for patients with refractory or relapsed T-ALL. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nelarabine, either as monotherapy or in combination with other therapies, in treating T-ALL.
