The endoplasmic reticulum(ER)is the largest membranous network serving as a region for protein, lipid and steroid synthesis, transport and storage. Detailed information about ER-cisternae, ER-tubules and rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER) is scarce in human blood cells. This study describes a series of giant inclusions and Auer bodies in promyeloblasts in six patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), by light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cytochemical stains. TEM revealed that giant inclusions and pro-Auer bodies were associated with rER and surrounded by tubular structures composed of degenerated or redundant membrane in promyeloblasts, which corresponded with elements of the ER system...

T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive immature T cell cancer. Mutations in IL7R have been analyzed genetically, but downstream effector functions such as STAT5A and STAT5B hyperactivation are poorly understood. Here, we studied the most frequent and clinically challenging STAT5BN642H driver in T cell development and immature T cell cancer onset and compared it with STAT5A hyperactive variants in transgenic mice. Enhanced STAT5 activity caused disrupted T cell development and promoted an early T cell progenitor-ALL phenotype, with upregulation of genes involved in T cell receptor (TCR) signaling, even in absence of surface TCR...

Cell and antibody therapies directed against surface molecules on B cells, e.g., CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CD19 CAR-T), are now standard for patients with chemorefractory B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias and other B cell malignancies. However, early relapse rates remain high. In this issue of the JCI, Aminov, Giricz, and colleagues revealed that leukemia cells resisting CD19-targeted therapy had reduced CD19 but also low CD22 expression and were sensitive to Bruton's tyrosine kinase and/or MEK inhibition...

Electronic cigarettes, which deliver an aerosolized, nicotine-containing product upon inhalation, are a public health issue that continue to gain popularity among adolescents and young adults in the United States. Use of electronic cigarettes is wide, and extends to pediatric patients with multiple comorbidities, including childhood cancer, leaving them vulnerable to further negative health outcomes. Acute leukemias are the most common type of cancer in pediatric populations, and treatment outcomes for these patients are improving; consequently, there is an increased emphasis on the effect of behavioral lifestyle factors on quality of life in survivorship...

BACKGROUND: Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome is a potentially fatal complication following hematopoietic cell transplantation, high-intensity chemotherapies and increasingly seen with calicheamicin based leukemia therapies. Paediatric specific European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (pEBMT) diagnostic criteria have demonstrated benefit in single center studies compared to historic criteria. Yet, the extent to which they have been universally implemented remains unclear. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective multi-centre study to examine the potential impact of the Baltimore, modified Seattle and pEBMT criteria on the incidence, severity, and outcomes of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome among paediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation patients...

Using immunotherapy to fight cancer, and specifically, the use of engineered T-cells expressing a chimeric receptor against an antigen found on malignant cells (chimeric antigen receptor, CAR-T cells) constitutes a significant breakthrough in the treatment of the disease. In recent years, several CAR-T therapies have been approved in Europe and the USA, and some are already approved and funded through the national health basket in Israel, for the indications of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma and B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, after the failure of at least two lines of treatment...

BACKGROUND: Myeloid neoplasms account for 50% of cases of pediatric leukemias in infants. Approximately 25%-50% of patients with newborn leukemia have cutaneous extramedullary disease (EMD). In less than 10% of patients, aleukemic leukemia cutis or isolated extramedullary disease with cutaneous involvement (cEMD) occurs when skin lesions appear prior to bone marrow involvement and systemic symptoms. Interestingly, in acute myeloid leukemia with cutaneous EMD (AML-cEMD) and cEMD, spontaneous remissions have been reported...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) serve as typical metabolic byproducts of aerobic life and play a pivotal role in redox reactions and signal transduction pathways. Contingent upon their concentration, ROS production not only initiates or stimulates tumorigenesis but also causes oxidative stress (OS) and triggers cellular apoptosis. Mounting literature supports the view that ROS are closely interwoven with the pathogenesis of a cluster of diseases, particularly those involving cell proliferation and differentiation, such as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and chronic/acute myeloid leukemia (CML/AML)...

Recently, the International Consensus Classification (ICC) and the 5th edition of the World Health Organization classification (WHO2022) introduced diagnostically similar yet distinct approaches, which has resulted in practical confusion. This review compares these classification systems for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), building up on the revised 4th edition of WHO (WHO2016). Both classifications retain recurrent genetic abnormalities as a primary consideration. However, they differ in terms of blast threshold...

BACKGROUND: Inducible co-stimulatory factor (ICOS) has a dual role: activating cytotoxic T cells against tumors or exacerbating immunosuppression of regulatory T cells (Tregs) to participate in immune evasion. However, the correlation between ICOS and its co-expression with inhibitory immune checkpoints (IICs) and prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is little known. METHODS: The prognostic importance of ICOS and IICs in 62 bone marrow (BM) samples of de novo AML patients from our clinical center (GZFPH) was explored and then the RNA sequencing data of 155 AML patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was used for validation...

ADH5/ALDH2 deficiency is a rare inherited syndrome characterized by short stature, microcephaly, delayed mental development, and hematopoietic dysfunction and has recently been proposed as a disease paradigm. Acute and severe presentations include aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or leukemia, requiring bone marrow transplantation during childhood. Conversely, non-hematological manifestations may exhibit a prolonged and nonspecific clinical trajectory, with growth failure and developmental delay, most of which are often overlooked, particularly in patients with milder symptoms...
