CD38 expression

Our findings underscore the influence of extracellular ADO on the neoplastic process of mature B-cell lymphoma. We also propose targeting the CD38-induced-ADO formation pathway, which could serve as a promising therapeutic immune target with multifaceted effects within mature B-cell neoplasms.

The expression of CD38+ monocytes in bone marrow of MM patients is closely related to the prognosis and clinical characteristics. CD38+ monocytes maybe used to predict prognosis and guide treatment decisions.

Dysregulated CD38 expression on T cell subsets was associated with lung involvement, especially RP-ILD in MDA5+ DM patients. CD38+ T cell subsets could be used as potential biomarkers for predicting ILD/RP-ILD in MDA5+ DM patients.

Moreover, this increase disappears in CML patients after treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors when the curative effect was satisfactory. We conclude that an increase in the proportion of CD56briCD38+ neutrophil subsets exceeding 2.0 % of total neutrophils serves as a highly sensitive and specific flow cytometry marker, enabling rapid and accurate identification of CML.

In the preclinical setting, MT-0169 effectively lysed primary MM cells from newly diagnosed and heavily pretreated MM patients, including those refractory to daratumumab, with minimal toxicity against nonmalignant hematopoietic cells. Finally, MT-0169 showed efficient in vivo anti-MM activity in various mouse xenograft models, including one in which MM cells are grown in a humanized bone marrow-like niche. These findings support clinical investigation of MT-0169 in relapsed/refractory MM patients, including those refractory to CD38-targeting immunotherapies.

P1 | "Tal-DP exhibits a deep, long-term impact on efficacy through complementary mechanisms of action and may be especially beneficial in pts with prior BsAb exposure, who typically have unfavorable BL immune profiles. Ongoing analyses of tec-DP from MajesTEC-2 (NCT04722146) will be presented."

Together, this highlights CD38 as an important regulator of CD45 activity via CD43 and galectin-1, in turn acting as a positive modulator of CLL proliferation. Ultimately, the CD38/CD45 molecular hub could be an important therapeutic target in CLL.

The aim of this study was to evaluate, using multi-colour flow cytometry, the level of CLL-1 protein expression on CD34+CD38- myeloid niche cells in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromepatients at the time of diagnosis and during disease monitoring on the example of 3 practical cases. The following conclusion was drawn: CD34+CD38-CLL-1+ cells in AML patients may serve as a biomarker to predict disease aggressiveness.

However, plasma cells were largely unchanged, and NK-cells expressing CD38 - the daratumumab target antigen - increased in blood. Future research should consider the optimal timings of exercise during daratumumab treatment in myeloma to avert exacerbation of daratumumab-mediated NK-cell lysis.

Finally, the present study suggested the log Firmicutes/Bacteroidota ratio as a novel intestinal microbiome signature associated with a shorter time to first treatment in individuals with CLL. The findings indicate that oral and gut microbial diversity in CLL might point to the inflammatory-related modulation of the clinical course of the disease.
