MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding epigenetic regulators that exert critical significance by influencing target mRNAs and governing gene expression patterns and cellular signaling pathways. miRNAs play a pivotal role in a wide array of biological processes, including cell differentiation, proliferation, and survival. Numerous miRNAs contribute to tumorigenesis and cancer progression by promoting tumor growth, angiogenesis, invasion, and immune evasion, while others exert tumor suppressive effects. From a clinical perspective, it has been demonstrated that numerous miRNAs are related to the prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. They hold the potential to be utilized as biomarkers, aiding in improved treatment decision-making. Moreover, a number of preclinical investigations have offered compelling evidence to create novel treatment approaches that target miRNAs in AML. This review highlights the clinical significance of miRNAs in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment response of adult patients with AML.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a severe blood cancer with an urgent need for novel therapies for refractory or relapsed patients. Leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (LAIR1), an immune suppressive receptor expressed on immune cells and AML blasts but minimally on hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), represents a potential therapeutic target. But there has been limited research on therapies targeting LAIR1 for AML and no published reports on LAIR1 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC).

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical features and outcomes of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) from a real word research. The clinical data of 223 consecutive elderly patients (aged ≥ 60 years) who were newly diagnosed with AML at our medical center between July 2017 and June 2022, including their clinical characteristics, genetic mutations, and survival outcomes, were retrospectively analyzed. Among the 223 patients (median age 67 years), 180 (80.
