Comprehensive Genomic Analysis of Patients with Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer Using Blood-Based Circulating Tumor DNA Assay: Findings from the BFAST Database of a Single Center in Taiwan

Latest Research in Lung Cancer Genomics: Analysis of Circulating Tumor DNA Detection in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Background and Motivation In recent years, the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has seen significant changes due to the success of targeted therapies. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend extens...

Aging-Induced MCPH1 Translocation Activates Necroptosis and Impairs Hematopoietic Stem Cell Function

Study on MCPH1 Nuclear Transfer Induced by Aging Activating Necrosis and Impairing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Function Research Background The aging of hematopoietic stem cells is associated with an increased risk of various blood diseases, and DNA damage is a significant factor driving the aging of hematopoietic stem cells. However, the underlying mo...

Autoimmune Conditions and Gastric Cancer Risk in a Population-Based Study in the United Kingdom

The Relationship Between Autoimmune Diseases and Gastric Cancer Risk in the British Population Background Introduction Despite the overall incidence of gastric cancer has declined over the past few decades, the incidence of gastric cancer among young people in some Western countries has increased in recent years. This trend may be related to the in...

Outdoor Air Pollution and Risk of Incident Adult Haematologic Cancer Subtypes in a Large US Prospective Cohort

A Large Prospective Cohort Study in the United States Reveals Potential Links Between Outdoor Air Pollution and Subtypes of Adult Hematologic Cancers Background and Purpose In recent years, the impact of outdoor air pollution on human health has garnered extensive attention. Since 2013, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has cla...

Identification of Clonal Hematopoiesis Driver Mutations Through In Silico Saturation Mutagenesis

Introduction In the process of healthy hematopoiesis, a group of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) contribute to all blood-related lineages. However, as we age, this process often leads to clonal hematopoiesis (CH), meaning the expansion of clones originating from a particular HSC, which then occupies a significant portion of blood cells and platelets...

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 ...

Generation of Allogeneic CAR-NKT Cells from Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells Using a Clinically Guided Culture Method

Generation of Clinically Applicable CAR-NKT Cells Research Background Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of B-cell malignancies and multiple myeloma. However, the use of autologous CAR-T cell products presents challenges such as high costs, long manufacturing ...

Human γδ T Cells in Diverse Tissues Exhibit Site-Specific Maturation Dynamics Across the Life Span

Research Background γδ T cells play an important role in the immune system, particularly in protective immunity, homeostasis, and tissue repair. Unlike conventional αβ T cells, which are restricted by major histocompatibility complex (MHC), γδ T cells directly seed peripheral tissues and respond to various microbial stimuli without relying on MHC-p...

Gastrointestinal infections and gastrointestinal haemorrhage are underestimated but serious adverse events in chimeric antigen receptor T-cell recipients: a real-world study

Gastrointestinal Infections and Gastrointestinal Bleeding in CAR-T Cell Recipients are Underrated but Severe Adverse Events: A Real-World Study Introduction In recent years, Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has shown lasting efficacy in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. However, multi-system toxic reactions associated...

Orthogonal proteogenomic analysis identifies the druggable PA2G4-MYC axis in 3q26 AML

Orthogonal Proteogenomic Analysis Identifies Druggable PA2G4-MYC Axis in 3q26 AML Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous and aggressive malignancy. In particular, the 3q26 chromosomal abnormality subtype of AML has a complex pathogenic mechanism and lacks effective targeted therapies. To address this challenge, Matteo Marchesini and...
