| The authors showed that OX40 was upregulated on T cells infiltrating graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) target organs in a rhesus macaque model, supporting the hypothesis that targeted ablation of OX40+ T cells will mitigate GvHD pathogenesis. [Blood] |

| Scientists performed RNA sequencing, methylation array analysis, whole exome, and targeted deep sequencing on 84 infants with KMT2A-rearranged leukemia. [Nature Communications] |

|
|
| Researchers generated an activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) knockout chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) mouse model and found that these mice died significantly earlier than their AID-proficient counterparts. [Leukemia] |
|
|
|
| Scientists identified human B-plasmacytoid dendritic cells bifurcation as large fluctuating transcriptome dynamics in the putative B/NK progenitor region by dry and wet methods. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Transport assays in isolated membrane vesicles showed a concentrationdependent inhibition of multidrug resistance protein 4 (MRP4)-mediated transport of cyclic nucleotides, thromboxane B2 and fluorescein (FITC)- labeled sphingosine-1-phosphate by the selective MRP4 inhibitor Ceefourin-1.

|
| Using deep, error-corrected, targeted DNA sequencing researchers assayed for somatic mutations in clonal hematopoiesis-driver genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from de-identified blood samples collected from 14 astronauts who flew Shuttle missions between 1998–2001.

|
| Whole-brain cerebral blood flow and oxygen extraction fraction were measured by MRI one to three months before and 12-24 months after HSC transplant in ten children with sickle cell disease: three with prior overt strokes, five with prior silent strokes, and one with abnormal transcranial Doppler ultrasound velocities. [Blood] |

|
|
| The authors found that the Hippo pathway coactivator TAZ was potently induced in old HSCs and protected these cells from functional decline. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the combination of IKZF1del and CD20 immunotypes in adult patients with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in the PDT-ALL-2016 cohort. [Bone Marrow Transplantation] |
|
|
|
| Scientists compared the outcomes of 52 peripheral T cell lymphoma patients treated with two different treatment regimens followed by autologous stem cell transplantation at their center between 2012 and 2021. [Scientific Reports] |

|
|
| Investigators provide an up-to-date review of clonal hematopoiesis within the context somatic mosaicism and aging and describe recent epidemiological studies which have reported associations with age-related disease. [Physiological Reviews] |

|
| Hypoxia-inducible factor-prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (HIF-PHIs) are novel agents to treat anemia in CKD. They stimulate endogenous erythropoietin production via HIF activation and thereby induce erythropoiesis. [Pharmacology & Therapeutics] |

|
| Curis has received another spark of hope as the FDA lets the biotech resume enrollment for a part of its Phase I/II study assessing emavusertib in patients with leukemia. [Fierce Biotech] |
