The t(8;21)(q22;q22) is one of the most common chromosomal abnormalities in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Approximately 3-4% of AML cases are associated with additional chromosomal abnormalities. Their impact on the prognosis of the disease remains to be established. Here we report a case of t(8;10;21) AML with mutated c-KIT that shared key morphological features with classical t(8;21) leukemias, including the M2 morphology pattern and CD34, HLA-DR phenotype. The 63-year-old female was treated with two inductioncontaining Daunoribicine and Cytarabine and four cycles of intermediate-dose Cytarabine (1.5 g/m) and achieved long-lasting remission.

Identification and validation of BATF as a prognostic biomarker and regulator of immune cell infiltration in acute myeloid leukemia.

Background: Basic leucine zipper ATF-like transcription factor (BATF) is a nuclear basic leucine zipper protein affiliated with the AP-1/ATF superfamily. Previous research has confirmed that BATF expression plays a significant role in the tumour microenvironment. However, the associations between BATF expression and prognoses in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients and their immunological effects remain unclear.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of Fu Tu Sheng Jin Rehabilitation Formula (FTSJRF) on airway inflammation, mucus secretion, and immunoreaction in a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein-induced mouse model.
Methods: Forty-two mice were randomly divided into seven groups: normal, D1, D3, D10, D10H, D10M and D10L, according to the days of modeling and different dosages of FTSJRF. D1, D3, D10, D10H, D10M and D10L group mice were intratracheally administered with 15 µg SARS-CoV-2 spike protein; mice in the D10H, D10M, and D10L groups were intragastrically administered FTSJRF (46, 23 and 11.
Serum stromal cell-derived factor 1α as a prognostic indicator in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia receiving CAG-based chemotherapy.

Background: Stromal-cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) plays a crucial role in hematopoiesis and has been implicated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis. Understanding its relationship with chemotherapy outcomes could lead to improved therapeutic approaches for elderly AML patients.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the medical records of elderly AML patients (n = 187) and compared serum SDF-1α levels with age-matched controls (n = 120).
Chromoanagenesis Is Frequently Associated With Highly Complex Karyotypes, Extensive Clonal Heterogeneity, and Treatment Refractoriness in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Chromoanagenesis (CAG) encompasses a spectrum of catastrophic genomic events, including chromothripsis, chromoanasynthesis, and chromoplexy. We studied CAG in 410 patients with a diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 292 newly diagnosed (ND), and 118 refractory/relapsed, using optical genome mapping. CAG was identified by the presence of clusters (with 10 or more breakpoints) of structural abnormalities and/or segmental copy number alterations within one or more chromosomal regions.

Refractory disease and relapse are major challenges in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) therapy attributed to survival of leukemic stem cells (LSC). To target LSCs, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) provide an elegant solution, combining the specificity of antibodies with highly potent payloads. We aimed to investigate if FLT3-20D9h3-ADCs delivering either the DNA-alkylator duocarmycin (DUBA) or the microtubule-toxin monomethyl auristatin F (MMAF) can eradicate quiescent LSCs.
