|
| Researchers showed that circular RNAs (circRNAs)—a family of covalently closed, alternatively spliced RNA molecules—were enriched within the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) recombinome and could bind DNA, forming circRNA:DNA hybrids at their cognate loci. [Cancer Cell] |

|
| Scientists demonstrated that transplantation of fetal HSCs made vitamin D deficient in utero induce diabetes in vitamin D-sufficient mice. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Researchers identified microRNA (miR)-223 as a negative regulator of murine hemogenic endothelial cell specification and endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition. [Developmental Cell] |
|
|
|
| Investigators showed that interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor antibody treatment reversed the atherosclerosis promoted by Tet2 clonal hematopoiesis, with reduction of monocytosis, lesional macrophage burden, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor expression. [Nature Cardiovascular Research] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that human lymphopoiesis was supported by three waves of embryonic, fetal, and postnatal multi-lymphoid progenitors differing in CD7 and CD10 expression and their output of CD127−/+ early lymphoid progenitors. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| To systematically dissect the unique physiology and uncover susceptibilities that can be exploited in near-haploid leukemia, the authors leveraged single-cell RNA-Seq and computational inference of cell cycle stages to pinpoint key differences between near-haploid and diploid leukemia cells. [Blood Cancer Journal] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the impact of NUP98-KDM5A expression on cellular processes in human pluripotent stem cell models and a patient-derived cell line. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Investigators characterized hematopoiesis at several different stages of blood formation, from HSCs to mature blood cells, and found that loss of the IFN-1 receptor led to depletion of several phenotypic HSC and multipotent progenitors subpopulations in neonatal and juvenile mice. [Blood Advances] |
|
|
|
| By using Runx1F/FMx1-Cre mouse model, scientists discovered that the megakaryocyte (MK)-HSC to MK direct differentiation could occur within 1 cell division, and RUNX1 was an important regulator in the process. [Blood Advances] |
|
|
|
| The authors demonstrated that WNT5A protein upregulated the WNT non-canonical pathway only in leukemic cells, without modulating normal cell behavior. [Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling] |
| |
|
|
| Investigators took advantage of a large international multicenter cohort to evaluate the role of TP53MT in patients with myelofibrosis undergoing HSC transplantation. [Blood] |
|
|
|
| Researchers reported that mice with germline monoallelic deletion or induced biallelic deletion of the 9p21-syntenic locus developed a fatal myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm-like disease associated with aberrant trabecular bone formation and/or fibrosis in the bone marrow. [Blood] |
| |
|
|
|
| The authors delve into the intricacies of clonal evolution in myeloid malignancies and its implications for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. [Trends in Cancer] |
|
|
|
| Scientists focus on the reciprocal interactions between leukemia stem cells and their milieu in the bone marrow. [British Journal of Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
|
| Chinese scientists say they have conducted a first-of-its-kind experiment to produce blood stem cells in space. The stem cells were brought back to Earth by the Shenzhou 15 spacecraft after being cultured for half a month in the Wentian lab module of China’s Tiangong space station. [South China Morning Post] |
