Article Abstract
Here, we show that the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) regulates myeloid and monocytic differentiation of HL-60 myeloblastic leukemia cells in response to retinoic acid (RA) and vitamin D3 (D3), respectively. Both RA and D3 decreased the expression of PDGFR-alpha and PDGFR-beta throughout differentiation. When cells were treated with the PDGFR inhibitor AG1296 in addition to RA or D3, signs of terminal differentiation such as inducible oxidative metabolism and cell substrate adhesion were enhanced. These changes were accompanied by an increased extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activation. AG1296 also resulted in elevated expression of differentiation markers CD11b and CD66c when administered with RA or D3. Interestingly, other markers did not follow the same pattern. Cells receiving AG1296 in addition to RA or D3 showed decreased G1-G0 arrest and CD14, CD38, and CD89 expression. We thus provide evidence that certain sets of differentiation markers can be enhanced, whereas others can be inhibited by the PDGFR pathway. In addition, we found calcium levels to be decreased by RA and D3 but increased when AG1296 was given in addition to RA or D3, suggesting that calcium levels decrease during myeloid or monocytic differentiation, and elevated calcium levels can disturb the expression of certain differentiation markers.

Myeloid progenitor dysregulation fuels immunosuppressive macrophages in tumours.

Monocyte-derived macrophages (mo-macs) often drive immunosuppression in the tumour microenvironment (TME) and tumour-enhanced myelopoiesis in the bone marrow fuels these populations. Here we performed paired transcriptome and chromatin accessibility analysis over the continuum of myeloid progenitors, circulating monocytes and tumour-infiltrating mo-macs in mice and in patients with lung cancer to identify myeloid progenitor programs that fuel pro-tumorigenic mo-macs. We show that lung tumours prime accessibility for Nfe2l2 (NRF2) in bone marrow myeloid progenitors as a cytoprotective response to oxidative stress, enhancing myelopoiesis while dampening interferon response and promoting immunosuppression.

Background: While highly efficacious for numerous cancers, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can cause unpredictable and potentially severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs), underscoring the need to understand irAE biology.
Methods: We used a multidimensional approach incorporating single-cell RNA sequencing, mass cytometry, multiplex cytokine assay, and antinuclear antibody (ANA) profiling to characterize the peripheral immune landscape of patients receiving ICI therapy according to irAE development.
Results: Analysis of 162 patients revealed that individuals who developed clinically significant irAEs exhibited a baseline proinflammatory, autoimmune-like state characterized by a significantly higher abundance of CD57 T and natural killer (NK) T cells, plasmablasts, proliferating and activated CXCR3 lymphocytes, CD8 effector and terminal effector memory T cells, along with reduced NK cells and elevated plasma ANA levels.
Lineage Switch of Adult B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia to Acute Myeloid Leukaemia Following B-Cell-Directed Therapy.

Background: Blinatumomab and inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) are B-cell targeted agents used in the frontline and relapsed/refractory treatment of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL). Blinatumomab, a bispecific T-cell engager that targets CD19 and CD3, and InO, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting CD22, have both shown efficacy. However, recent reports have noted lineage conversion as a complication when these agents are used individually or sequentially.

Background: Breast cancer is a systemic disease, yet the impact of tumor molecular subtype and disease stage on the systemic immune landscape remains poorly understood. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the systemic immune landscape in a large cohort of breast cancer patients, encompassing all molecular subtypes and disease stages, alongside a control group of healthy donors.
Materials And Methods: Using multi-parameter flow cytometry, we assessed the abundance, phenotype, and activation status of diverse innate and adaptive immune cell populations across peripheral blood samples from 355 breast cancer patients and 65 healthy donors.

Exposure to nanoplastics (NPs), a pervasive environmental pollutant, presents potential health risks. Pulmonary exposure to NPs has been shown to disrupt both pulmonary metabolic status and immune homeostasis, leading to concerns about their impact on respiratory health and systemic well-being. However, the underlying linkage and mechanisms remain elusive.
