Platelets, tiny cell fragments measuring 2-4 μm in diameter without a nucleus, play a crucial role in blood clotting and maintaining vascular integrity. Abnormalities in platelets, whether genetic or acquired, are linked to bleeding disorders, increased risk of blood clots, and cardiovascular diseases. Advanced proteomic techniques offer profound insights into the roles of platelets in hemostasis and their involvement in processes such as inflammation, metastasis, and thrombosis.

However, injecting sclerosing agents into blood vessels is technically challenging and often ineffective. Gel-immersion EIS (GI-EIS) may facilitate easier intravascular sclerosing agent injection by dilating the varices and enhancing scope stability by maintaining low intra-gastrointestinal pressure.

Background: Jeoryeong-tang (JRT) was first recorded in . It is composed of Polyporus Sclerotium, Poria, Asini Corii Colla, Alisma Rhizome, and Talcum at the same weight ratio. These medicinal materials are known for diuretic and hemostatic effects and have been traditionally used to treat kidney and bladder diseases.

The actin cytoskeleton serves an important, but poorly characterized, role in controlling granule exocytosis. The dynamic nature of actin remodeling allows it to act both as a barrier to prevent indiscriminate granule release and as a facilitator of membrane fusion. In its capacity to promote exocytosis, filamentous actin binds to components of the exocytotic machinery through actin binding proteins, but also through direct interactions with SNAREs.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with retinoic acid receptor gamma (RARG) fusions, which exhibits clinical features resembling acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), has been identified as a new subtype with poor clinical outcomes. The underlying mechanism of RARG-fusion leukemia remains poorly understood, and needs to be explored urgently to instruct developing effective therapeutic strategies. Here, using the most prevalent RARG fusion, CPSF6-RARG (CR), as a representative, we reveal that the CR fusion, enhances the expansion of myeloid progenitors, impairs their maturation and synergizes with RAS mutations to drive more aggressive myeloid malignancies.
