    Fecal Microbiota Transplantation from Young Mice Rejuvenates Aged Hematopoietic Stem Cells by Suppressing Inflammation

    Scientists performed fecal microbiota transplantation from young mice to aged mice and observed a significant increment in lymphoid differentiation and a decrease in myeloid differentiation in aged recipient mice.

    SBNO2 Is a Critical Mediator of STAT3-Driven Hematological Malignancies

    To understand the consequences and molecular mechanisms contributing to disease development and oncogenic transformation, investigators developed murine hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell models expressing mutated STAT3Y640F.

    Abstract

    Identification of AXL as a Co-Receptor for Human Parvovirus B19 Infection of Human Erythroid Progenitors

    Researchers carried out a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 guide RNA screen and identified tyrosine protein kinase receptor UFO, AXL, as a proteinaceous receptor for B19V infection of erythroid progenitor cells.

    Sec22b Is a Critical and Nonredundant Regulator of Plasma Cell Maintenance

    The authors identified the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor Sec22b as a unique and critical regulator of plasma cell maintenance and function.

    Abstract

    E3-Ligase TRIM31 Regulates Hematopoietic Stem Cell Homeostasis and MLL-AF9 Leukemia

    Scientists found that the E3 ligase-TRIM31 regulated HSC homeostasis and leukemia through the accumulation of CDK8. TRIM31 deficiency promoted hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell proliferation and long-term HSC exhaustion.

    Abstract

    Integrated Flow Cytometry and Sequencing to Reconstruct Evolutionary Patterns from Dysplasia to Acute Myeloid Leukemia

    Researchers hypothesized that the mutational status of bone marrow dysplastic cells and leukemic blasts, analyzed at the onset of AML using integrated multidimensional flow cytometry immunophenotyping and fluorescence-activated cell sorting with next-generation sequencing, could reconstruct leukemogenesis.

    Allele-Specific Polymerase Chain Reaction Can Determine the Diplotype of NUDT15 Variants in Patients with Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

    Investigators designed an allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (AS-PCR) with locked nucleic acid-modified primers. A cohort of 63 patients harboring heterozygous c.55_56insGAGTCG and c.415C > T NUDT15 variations was selected for haplotyping using AS-PCR.

    Toll-Like Receptor 4-Dependent Platelet-Related Thrombosis in SARS-CoV-2 Infection

    Researchers performed a cross-sectional analysis of platelet function in 25 SARS-CoV-2 and 10 healthy subjects by measuring Nox2-derived oxidative stress and thromboxane B2, and investigated if administration of monoclonal antibodies against the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 affects platelet activation.

    TP53-Mediated Clonal Hematopoiesis Confers Increased Risk for Incident Atherosclerotic Disease

    Scientists analyzed the relation between clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential status and incident peripheral artery disease and atherosclerosis, using whole-exome sequencing and clinical data from the UK Biobank and the Mass General Brigham Biobank.

    Abstract

    Evaluation and Validation of the Prognostic Value of Platelet Indices in Patients with Leukemia

    Investigators present information that show that platelet count can be used to predict long-term prognosis after chemotherapy, especially in the case of acute myeloid leukemia patients.
