Endocardium Gives Rise to Blood Cells in Zebrafish Embryos
[Cell Reports] Using a combination of expression analysis, time-lapse imaging, and lineage-tracing approaches, investigators demonstrated that myeloid cells emerged from the endocardium in zebrafish embryos.

High-Dose Chemotherapy and Autologous Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantation in Older, Fit Patients with Primary Diffuse Large B-Cell CNS Lymphoma (MARTA): A Single-Arm, Phase II Trial
[Lancet Haematology] Patients aged 65 years or older with newly diagnosed, untreated primary diffuse large B-cell CNS lymphoma were enrolled if they had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0–2 and were fit for high-dose chemotherapy and autologous HSCT.

3D Amplified Single-Cell RNA and Protein Imaging Identifies Oncogenic Transcript Subtypes in B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
[ACS Nano] The 3D digital rolling circle amplification technique presented could distinguish BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells with or without CD19 protein expression.

Peroxisome Deficiency Underlies Failures in Hepatic Immune Cell Development and Antigen Presentation in a Severe Zellweger Disease Model
[Cell Reports] Scientists characterized the hepatic immune compartment of a neonatal peroxisome biogenesis disorders mouse model at single-cell resolution to establish the importance and function of peroxisomes in developmental hematopoiesis.

Phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+ Dependent 1B Regulates the Hematopoietic Stem Cells Homeostasis via the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling
[Haematologica] By using a conditional knockout mouse model in which Ppm1b was specifically depleted in hematopoietic cells, researchers demonstrated that loss of Ppm1b impaired the HSC homeostasis and hematopoietic reconstitution.

Exonic Knockout and Knockin Gene Editing in Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells Rescues RAG1 Immunodeficiency
[Science Translational Medicine] Investigators developed gene editing strategies targeting a corrective sequence into the human RAG1 gene by homology-directed repair and validated them by tailored 2D, 3D, and in vivo xenotransplant platforms to assess rescue of expression and function.

DNA Demethylating Agents Suppress Preclinical Models of Synovial Sarcoma
[Journal of Clinical Investigation] Given that synovial sarcoma is characterized by a peculiarly low DNA hypomethylation profile, researchers hypothesized that further disturbance of DNA methylation would have a negative impact on synovial sarcoma growth.
Tissue Mechanics in Tumor Heterogeneity and Aggression
[Trends in Cancer] Scientists discuss the role of the ECM in driving cancer aggression through its impact on tumor heterogeneity.
LncRNA SLNCR Phenocopies the E2F1 DNA Binding Site to Promote Melanoma Progression
[Cell Reports] Scientists showed that SLNCR binds to E2F1 to promote the proliferation, invasion, and migration of melanoma cells from the bloodstream into the lungs.
