Robust Acute Myeloid Leukemia Engraftment in Humanized Scaffolds Using Injectable Biomaterials and Intravenous Xenotransplantation

Robust Engraftment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) in Humanized Scaffolds Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant blood disorder that poses significant challenges in treatment and research. Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models are crucial tools for studying AML, but existing PDX models are often complex and labor-intensive, limitin...

Genetic Risk Stratification and Outcomes Among Treatment-Naive Patients with AML Treated with Venetoclax and Azacitidine

Genetic Risk Stratification and Outcomes Among Treatment-Naive AML Patients Treated with Venetoclax and Azacitidine Academic Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous hematologic malignancy, with prognosis closely related to the genetic characteristics of patients. The European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2017 and 2022 risk stratifica...

Single or Double Induction with 7+3 Containing Standard or High-Dose Daunorubicin for Newly Diagnosed AML: The Randomized DAUNODouble Trial by the Study Alliance Leukemia

Academic Background Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a malignant blood disorder, with the core of its treatment being induction chemotherapy, typically involving a combination of cytarabine and anthracyclines (such as daunorubicin). Although this treatment regimen has been in use since the 1980s, questions regarding the optimal dose of daunorubicin ...

Targeting Acute Myeloid Leukemia Stem Cells Through Perturbation of Mitochondrial Calcium

Targeting Acute Myeloid Leukemia Stem Cells Through Perturbation of Mitochondrial Calcium

This is an academic paper report on the study of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) stem cells. The study found that venetoclax treatment targeting the BCL-2 protein induces different mitochondrial calcium signaling changes in drug-sensitive and drug-resistant AML stem cells, thereby affecting their oxidative phosphorylation metabolism and survival. The ...
