The CNS microenvironment promotes leukemia cell survival by disrupting tumor suppression and cell cycle regulation in pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Exp Cell Res. 2024 Mar 30:114015. doi: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2024.114015. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA major obstacle in improving survival in pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is understanding how to predict and treat leukemia relapse in the CNS. Leukemia cells are capable of infiltrating and residing within the CNS, primarily the leptomeninges, where they interact with the microenvironment and remain sheltered from systemic treatment. These cells can survive in the CNS, by hijacking the microenvironment and disrupting normal functions, thus promoting malignant transformation. While the protective effects of the ...

Ponatinib-Related Vasospastic Angina
We report 3 cases of Ponatinib-related vasospastic angina, in which prophylactic administration of nitrates or calcium channel blockers was effective.PMID:38556342 | DOI:10.1536/ihj.23-355 (Source: International Heart Journal)

"Characterization of residential proximity to sources of environmental carcinogens in clusters of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in San Luis Potosi, Mexico"
CONCLUSIONS: This study has a limited source and amount of available data on ALL cases, so selection bias is present as well as the inability to rule out residual confounding factors, since covariates were not included. However, in this study, children living in environments with high vehicular density, gas stations, brick kilns, incinerators, commercial establishments burning biomass, or near industrial zones may be at higher risk for ALL.PMID:38555983 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2024.118790 (Source: Environmental Research)
