Article Abstract

Hodgkin's lymphoma is a rare yet highly curable disease in the majority of patients treated with modern chemotherapy regimens. For patients who fail to respond to or relapse after initial systemic therapies, treatment with high-dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can provide a cure for many with chemotherapy-responsive lymphoma. Patients who relapse after autologous transplant or those with chemorefractory disease have poor prognosis and represent a high unmet need. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation provides a proven curative therapy for these patients and should be considered, especially in young and medically fit patients. The use of newer agents in this disease such as brentuximab vedotin and immune checkpoint inhibitors can help bring more patients to transplantation and should be considered as well.

The role of inflammation in the regulation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and stressed hematopoiesis is significant, though the molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we found that mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) had dysregulated expression of the inflammatory cytokine S100A8 in AML. Upregulating S100A8 in MSCs increased the proliferation of AML cells in vitro.

Long-term maintenance of somatic stem cells relies on precise regulation of self-renewal and differentiation. Understanding the molecular framework for these homeostatic processes is essential for improved cellular therapies and treatment of myeloid neoplasms. CUX1 is a widely expressed, dosage-sensitive transcription factor crucial in development and frequently deleted in myeloid neoplasia in the context of -7/(del7q).

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) responsible for blood cell production and their bone marrow regulatory niches undergo age-related changes, impacting immune responses and predisposing individuals to hematologic malignancies. Here, we show that the age-related alterations of the megakaryocytic niche and associated downregulation of Platelet Factor 4 (PF4) are pivotal mechanisms driving HSC aging. PF4-deficient mice display several phenotypes reminiscent of accelerated HSC aging, including lymphopenia, increased myeloid output, and DNA damage, mimicking physiologically aged HSCs.

Human cord blood (CB) myeloid progenitor reprogramming to a high-fidelity human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) state can be achieved using non-integrating episomal vectors and stromal signals. These conventional, primed CB-hiPSC lines can subsequently be chemically reverted with high efficiencies to a blastomere-like Tankyrase/PARP Inhibitor-Regulated Naive Stem Cell (TIRN-SC) state with functional totipotency. PARP-regulated TIRN-SCs are human stem cells with high epigenetic plasticity, stable epigenomic imprints, and have greater differentiation potency than conventional, lineage-primed hiPSCs.

Introduction: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) requires reliable vascular access for medication, transfusion, and blood sampling, which often involves painful venipuncture. This prospective study evaluated a novel dual peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) technique to reduce venipuncture frequency in allo-HSCT recipients.

Methods: The study enrolled 29 allo-HSCT recipients.
