Objective: To investigate the clinical features of acute myeloid leukemia patients with hemophagocytic syndrome.

Methods: The clinical data of 2 patients with acute myeloid leukemia complicated with hemophagocytic syndrome were collected, and the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes were analyzed.

Results: There were two patients with acute myeloid leukemia, including 1 male and 1 female,aged for 67 and 40 years old,respectively. Hemophagocytic syndrome occurred in one patient after induction therapy for acute myeloid leukemia and one patient after consolidation therapy. Both of the patients with hemophagocytic syndrome showed fever, hemocytopenia, high ferritin, high titer sCD25 levels and hemophagocytes in bone marrow. After achieved anti-infection, glucocorticoid, human immunoglobulin and etoposide regimens treatment, hemophagocytic syndrome was controlled in both of the two patients. One patient failed to induce acute myeloid leukemia and one patient achieved complete remission.

Conclusion: Acute myeloid leukemia complicated with hemophagocytic syndrome is rare. Early identification, early anti-infection combined with HLH94 regimen can control hemophagocytosis and improve prognosis.

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.

Purpose: The clinical prognostic value of monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients undergoing nonintensive treatment remains insufficiently established. The aim of this work was to examine MRD status at various time points, highlighting the potential for pre-emptive therapy to improve patient outcomes.

Methods: Inpatient data from 2017 to 2024 were used in this retrospective study.

Our understanding of the functional heterogeneity of resident versus recruited macrophages in the diseased liver is limited. A population of recruited lipid-associated macrophages (LAMs) has been reported to populate the diseased liver alongside resident Kupffer cells (KCs). However, the precise roles of these distinct macrophage subsets remain elusive.

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a critical role in chromatin remodelling and modulating the activity of various histone proteins. Aberrant HDAC functions has been related to the progression of breast cancer (BC), making HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) promising small-molecule therapeutics for its treatment. Hydroxamic acid (HA) is a significant pharmacophore due to its strong metal-chelating ability, HDAC inhibition properties, MMP inhibition abilities, and more.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) techniques hold great value in evaluating the heterogeneity and spatial characteristics of hematopoietic cells within tissues. These two techniques are highly complementary, with scRNA-seq offering single-cell resolution and ST retaining spatial information. However, there is an urgent demand for well-organized and user-friendly toolkits capable of handling single-cell and spatial information.
