Mechanisms driving immunosuppression in chronic myeloid leukemia are mostly unknown. We show that leukemic extracellular vesicles (EVs) target lymphocytes and amplify suppressive function of thymic regulatory T cells, by driving expression of Foxp3 transcription factor. This could facilitate expansion of leukemic cells outside the bone marrow, leading to blast crisis.

Aim: To describe tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment patterns and analyze co-variates of TKI switch for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients in a center from China.
Methods: A retrospectively study was designed to analyze TKI switching patterns, reasons and associated covariates in patients with CP-CML.
Results: 1766 patients receiving initial imatinib (n = 1374), nilotinib (n = 254), dasatinib (n = 63) and flumatinib (n = 75) therapy were retrospectively interrogated.

Despite the enthusiasm for targeted cancer therapies in preclinical studies and the success of a select few drugs, many promising drug candidates fail in clinical trials. The gap between preclinical promise and clinical outcomes underscores the need to investigate factors influencing the success or failure of targeted therapies. Dasatinib, an inhibitor of Abl and Src protein tyrosine kinases, is highly effective toward chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) by targeting BCR-Abl, but it is ineffective against solid tumors when targeting Src kinases.

Atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) are rare fractures usually associated with medications that can ultimately alter bone metabolism. Imatinib, a drug prescribed for treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), has been associated with altered bone homeostasis, however, with unknown clinical significance. Here, we present the case of a 17-year-old female, with a diagnosis of CML undergoing chronic imatinib therapy, who developed an AFF treated successfully with prophylactic fixation with intramedullary nailing.

The chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is easily diagnosed by laboratory examination, however, rare BCR-ABL1 mRNA transcripts variants, such as e1a3 present diagnosis and therapeutic challenges. This case report details the diagnosis and management of a CML patient with the e1a3 transcript by FISH and RT-PCR. Following initial diagnosis, the patient was treated with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) Flumatinib.

Dysfunction of astrocytes has a crucial role in the pathology of depression. Here, we aimed to define the exact action of the ubiquitous transcription factor (TF) Yin Yang-1 (Yy1) in depression pathogenesis and astrocytic dysfunction. A chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) mouse model was generated.
