Real Egyptian Single-Center Experience in Mantle Cell Lymphoma Diagnosis and Management. (PubMed, Indian J Hematol Blood Transfus)
Patients received treatment according to the institutional protocols in the form of RCHOP [rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone] and RDHAP [rituximab, dexamethasone, high dose cytarabine and cisplatin] as induction therapy and ICE [ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide], ESHAP [etoposide, methylprednisolone, high dose cytarabine and cisplatin], gemcitabine-based protocols, and others as second line therapies. To overcome the limitations in our study, larger cohorts are needed to be studied with the evaluation of the novel therapies when feasible. Enhancing financial support is crucial to improve MCL patients' care in our country.

Targeting STAT3-mediated lipid metabolism reprogramming overcomes chemoresistance in acute myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
Here, we found that multiple lipid metabolism processes are aberrantly activated in Ara-C resistant AML cells, accompanied by upregulation of JAK-STAT3 signaling and key lipid metabolic regulators, notably SREBP1 and CPT2...Our findings highlight the critical role of STAT3-driven lipid metabolism reprogramming in chemoresistance. Furthermore, W1307 emerges as a promising therapeutic candidate to overcome chemoresistance in leukemia treatment.

Clinical profiling of AML1::ETO and KIT exon 17 mutation in pediatric AML by high-throughput drug sensitivity. (PubMed, BMC Cancer)
We conclude that KIT mutations, especially exon 17, confer a high-risk phenotype in otherwise favorable pediatric AML1::ETO AML. Our exploratory data suggest this may be associated with a chemoresistant profile, potentially driven by SOCS1-associated JAK-STAT dysregulation. These findings highlight the necessity of refined risk stratification based on KIT exon profiling and support targeting the SOCS1/JAK-STAT axis to overcome therapy resistance.

Peroxisomal Lipid Metabolism as a Therapeutic Target in Leukemia. (PubMed, Mol Nutr Food Res)
pFAO blockade synergizes with chemotherapy drugs such as venetoclax and cytarabine, enabling exploitation of metabolic vulnerabilities to improve therapeutic outcomes. Integrating solid tumor and leukemia insights, peroxisomes emerge as dynamic lipid-processing organelles coupling FAO, redox buffering, and inter-organelle exchange to cancer persistence. Targeting peroxisome-mediated lipid delivery offers a frontier for overcoming metabolic resilience and therapeutic resistance in leukemia.

Dissecting PCD-driven molecular landscapes in AML: a multi-omic framework for prognostication and therapeutic targeting. (PubMed, Clin Exp Med)
As an exploratory analysis, subtype-specific therapeutic vulnerabilities were revealed: Subtype A displays predicted sensitivity to immune checkpoint inhibitors (anti-PD-1) and tipifarnib, whereas Subtype B responds better to cytarabine/doxorubicin. Crucially, experimental validation confirmed significant upregulation of key model genes (HIP1, SQLE, VNN1) in AML patient samples and cell lines (P < 0.05), reinforcing the model's biological relevance. These findings establish PCD dysregulation as a central axis of AML heterogeneity, providing a framework for precision risk stratification and hypothesis-generating immunophenotype-guided therapy.
