Epidemiology, Clinical Features, and Molecular Basis of TTMV::RARA-driven Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia.

Integration of torque teno mini virus (TTMV) generating the TTMV::RARA fusion represents a newly recognized subtype of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) that merits detailed investigation. We present the first comprehensive characterization of its epidemiologic profile, clinical presentation, virologic characteristics, and underlying molecular mechanisms. Our findings indicate that TTMV::RARA is more prevalent in pediatric patients and represents the second most common retinoic acid receptor fusion after PML::RARA.

Double Spin Resonance for Traceable Ultrasensitive Atomic Spin Sensor.

We report an ultrasensitive atomic spin sensor employing double spin resonance, achieving a spin signal enhancement of 2600 and a sensitivity of 0.57  fT/sqrt[Hz] under nonzero magnetic field measurements. Furthermore, we establish an in situ alkali-noble-gas spin sensor by tracing the measured spin precession frequency to the nuclear spins gyromagnetic ratio constant with high accuracy.

Clinical features and fusion gene analysis of two Torque Teno Mini virus associated acute promyelocytic leukemia cases.

Torque Teno Mini Virus (TTMV), a member of the Anelloviridae family, is a commensal component of the human virome. Since the initial identification of the TTMV::RARA fusion gene as a novel driver of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), 15 cases have been reported in retrospective studies. With advancements in diagnostic methods and increased awareness, the number of newly diagnosed cases has risen, and the clinical and molecular characteristics of TTMV::RARA-APL are becoming clearer.

Dark matter search with a resonantly-coupled hybrid spin system.

Recent advances in tabletop quantum sensor technology have enabled searches for nongravitational interactions of dark matter (DM). Traditional axion DM experiments rely on sharp resonance, resulting in extensive scanning time to cover a wide mass range. In this work, we present a broadband approach in an alkali- 21Ne spin system.

Case report of pediatric TTMV-related acute promyelocytic leukemia with central nervous system infiltration and rapid accumulation of RARA-LBD mutations.

is a recently reported fusion gene associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), caused by the integration of torque teno mini virus (TTMV) genomic fragments into the second intron of the gene. Currently, there have been only six documented cases, with clinical presentations showing significant variability. Although initial responses to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) treatment may be observed in patients with ::-APL, the overall prognosis remains unfavorable among infrequent reported cases.

Advances towards genome-based acute myeloid leukemia classification: A comparative analysis of WHO-HAEM4R, WHO-HAEM5, and International Consensus Classification.

Two recent guidelines, the 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours (WHO-HAEM5) and the International Consensus Classification (ICC), were published to refine the diagnostic criteria of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). They both consider genomic features more extensively and expand molecularly defined AML subtypes. In this study, we compared the classifications of 1135 AML cases under both criteria.

Electromagnetic field and cardiovascular diseases: A state-of-the-art review of diagnostic, therapeutic, and predictive values.

Despite encouraging advances in early diagnosis and treatment, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remained a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Increasing evidence has shown that the electromagnetic field (EMF) influences many biological processes, which has attracted much attention for its potential therapeutic and diagnostic modalities in multiple diseases, such as musculoskeletal disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Nonionizing EMF has been studied as a therapeutic or diagnostic tool in CVDs.

Report of PRPF19 as a novel partner of RARG and the recurrence of interposition-type fusion in variant acute promyelocytic leukemia.

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a unique subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which is characterized by specific clinical and biological features. Typical APL cases are caused by PML::RARA fusion gene and are exquisitely sensitive to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO). Rarely, APLs are caused by atypical fusions involving RARA or, in fewer cases still, fusions involving other members of the retinoic acid receptors (RARB or RARG).

Ultrasensitive Atomic Comagnetometer with Enhanced Nuclear Spin Coherence.

Achieving high energy resolution in spin systems is important for fundamental physics research and precision measurements, with alkali-noble-gas comagnetometers being among the best available sensors. We found a new relaxation mechanism in such devices, the gradient of the Fermi-contact-interaction field that dominates the relaxation of hyperpolarized nuclear spins. We report on precise control over spin distribution, demonstrating a tenfold increase of nuclear spin hyperpolarization and transverse coherence time with optimal hybrid optical pumping.

DNTT activation, TdT-aided gene length mutation, and better prognosis in ATG-based regimen allo-HSCT in AML.

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between anomalous DNA nucleotidylexotransferase (DNTT) activation and the mutagenesis of gene length mutations (LMs) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and the relevance of their prognosis in antithymocyte globulin (ATG)-based regimen allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). A cohort of 578 AML cases was enrolled. Next-generation sequencing was performed to screen mutations of 86 leukemia driver genes.

Torque teno mini virus driven childhood acute promyelocytic leukemia: The third case report and sequence analysis.

In this manuscript, we report torque teno mini virus (TTMV) as a cause of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) lacking :: in a 3-year-old boy. Astolfi et al. firstly identified partial integration of the TTMV genome into intron 2, which resulted in in-frame :: fusion in two APL-like pediatric cases without :: in November 2021.

Constraints on exotic spin-velocity-dependent interactions.

Experimental searches for exotic spin-dependent forces are attracting a lot of attention because they allow to test theoretical extensions to the standard model. Here, we report an experimental search for possible exotic spin-dependent force, specifically spin-and-velocity-dependent forces, by using a K-Rb-Ne co-magnetometer and a tungsten ring featuring a high nucleon density. Taking advantage of the high sensitivity of the co-magnetometer, the pseudomagnetic field from this exotic force is measured to be ≤7 aT.

The influence of modulated magnetic field on light absorption in SERF atomic magnetometer.

A single-beam spin-exchange relaxation-free atomic magnetometer is ultra-sensitive in the zero field, which has great potential for the detection of a magnetoencephalogram. The addition of a modulated magnetic field is an important approach to achieve high sensitivity for devices of this kind. In this study, we discovered that the amplitude and frequency of the modulated magnetic field (modulation index 0-3) both influence the light absorption.

Design and evaluation of an air-insulated catheter for intra-arterial selective cooling infusion from numerical simulation and in vitro experiment.

Intra-arterial selective cooling infusion (IA-SCI) is a promising method for neuroprotection of patients with acute ischemic stroke. One shortcoming of IA-SCI is the elevated delivery temperature caused by the cold perfusate warming along the catheter pathway. Therefore, increasing the thermal resistance of the catheter is of significant importance.

We investigate the effects of pump laser power density on the hybrid optically pumped comagnetometer operated in the spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) regime.
