In this issue of Cancer Cell, Zhong et al. explore the dual role of TREM2 in glioblastoma-associated myeloid cells, demonstrating its function in promoting inflammation at the tumor-neural interface and suppression within the tumor core, influenced by the local microenvironment. These findings open up promising prospects for advancements in neuro-oncological immunotherapy.

partial tandem duplication (PTD) involves intragenic duplications and has been associated with poorer prognosis. In this study, we evaluated PTD in 1277 patients with hematological malignancies using optical genome mapping (OGM). PTD was detected in 35 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (7%), 5 patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) (2.

rearrangements are major genetic entities in the classification of acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs), but their diverse and frequently cryptic nature makes their detection and characterization challenging. Karyotypic anomalies at the locus and/or abnormal Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) results strongly indicate a fusion, but the identification of the translocation partner gene often requires further investigation. partial tandem duplications (PTDs), on the other hand, are undetectable by standard cytogenetics methods.

Introduction: Macrophage-inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) has emerged as a potential contributor to neuropathic pain induction and neuroinflammatory responses within the spinal cord. Moreover, evidence suggests a close association between toll-like receptor (TLR) and Mincle expression in myeloid cells. This study evaluated the effectiveness of Mincle antibodies in neuropathic pain and identified the epitope of these antibodies.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) refers to a cancerous tumor that develops in the upper and side walls of the nasopharyngeal cavity. Typically, individuals are often diagnosed with the disease when it has already progressed significantly, and those with advanced NPC tend to have an unfavorable outlook in terms of response rate to targeted treatments and overall clinical survival. Various molecular mechanisms, including Myeloid-derived suppressor cells and factors like PD-L1, have been explored to enhance the outcome of NPC.

Although macrophages in the meningeal compartments of the central nervous system (CNS) have been comprehensively characterized under steady state, studying their contribution to physiological and pathological processes has been hindered by the lack of specific targeting tools in vivo. Recent findings have shown that the dural sinus and its adjacent lymphatic vessels act as a neuroimmune interface. However, the cellular and functional heterogeneity of extrasinusoidal dural macrophages outside this immune hub is not fully understood.
