Salvia coccinea and Apigenin: A Natural Treasure of Lamiaceae in Pharmacological Innovation. (PubMed, Food Sci Nutr)
Furthermore, apigenin and Salvia coccinea promote hypoglycemic effect by attenuating α-amylase activity, cholesterol levels, insulin resistance, DRP1 expression by improving GLUT4, GSK-3β, AMPK/PI3K/Nrf2, and Akt pathways. Moreover, Salvia coccinea regulates wound healing after infection, injury, or surgery, in addition to improving agricultural productivity by reducing rodent attacks.

Early catheter-directed portal vein thrombolysis in myeloproliferative disorder-related diffuse mesenteric venous ischemia: A case report. (PubMed, World J Gastroenterol)
Early low-dose catheter-directed thrombolysis provided a safe and effective treatment for a patient with noncirrhotic, nonmalignant PVT associated with mesenteric ischemia, demonstrating the utility of an alternative treatment for PVT.

Maladaptive somatic gene rescue as predisposition to JAK2 molecular abnormalities? Insights from an Israeli family. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
Our patient carried two acquired molecular abnormalities involving JAK2 gene (PCM1::JAK2 fusion and JAK2 H531Y) along with a germline mutation (BLM Y736fs*5, variant allele frequency VAF 41.7%), whereas his sister had the canonical JAK2 V617F driver mutation. This particular pedigree could arise the hypothesis of a genetic predisposition to acquire different JAK2 molecular abnormalities as a maladaptive somatic genetic rescue of an underlying germline predisposition, namely the germline BLM Y736fs*5 mutation.

Cutaneous Eruptions as a Consequence of Myeloid Leukemic Infiltration: Differential Diagnosis With a Benign Dermatosis. (PubMed, Cureus)
Further investigation revealed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) arising from blastic transformation of ET, with probable cutaneous involvement consistent with leukemia cutis. This case highlights the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion when evaluating new or treatment-refractory skin lesions in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), as early recognition may allow timely diagnosis of leukemic transformation and prompt initiation of appropriate therapy.

Leukocytosis and a JAK2 mutation: The importance of expertise in somatic variant interpretation. (PubMed, Leuk Res Rep)
This patient case highlights the likely benign polymorphic nature of the rare G571S JAK2 mutation that has been previously reported. Moreover, our results stress the importance of appropriate interpretation of rare variants of uncertain significance, namely that clinical decision making should be supported by adjunct genetic testing and with appropriate reference to each patient's clinical context.

Copy-Neutral Loss of Heterzygosity in Myelofibrosis: Parallel Evaluation with Optical Genome Mapping and Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism Arrays. (PubMed, J Mol Diagn)
These findings demonstrate that OGM, particularly when analyzed with VIA, is a sensitive and reliable method for CN-LOH detection in MF. However, in the absence of broader validation, confirmation with orthogonal methods remains necessary.

Targeting DDX5 using FL118 suppresses mTOR signaling and tumorigenicity in JAK2V617F-driven myeloproliferative neoplasms. (PubMed, Int Immunopharmacol)
In a subcutaneous tumor model, in which Ba/F3 cells expressing JAK2V617F and EpoR were transplanted into nude mice, oral administration of FL118 significantly reduced tumor growth and hepatosplenomegaly. Collectively, these findings establish DDX5 as a promising therapeutic target in MPNs and underscore the potential of FL118 as a treatment strategy for JAK2V617F-driven disease.

Maedi infection modulates oncogenic and inflammatory signaling in ovine pulmonary adenomatosis through TLR4/NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 pathways: A Trojan horse mechanism. (PubMed, Vet Microbiol)
Overall, these findings suggest that chronic Maedi infection may modulate the pulmonary microenvironment by influencing inflammatory, apoptotic, and oncogenic signaling pathways in OPA. This immunomodulatory interaction may be relevant for understanding host-virus dynamics in naturally occurring virus-induced lung tumors.

Targeted Therapy for a Rare PDGFRB-Rearranged Myeloproliferative Neoplasm: A Case Report. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
This allowed for targeted therapy with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), leading to molecular remission monitored by RT-qPCR. This case highlights how a multidisciplinary approach can identify atypical transcripts in MPN, guiding targeted therapy with TK inhibitors, thus resulting in effective treatment and molecular remission.

Budd-Chiari Syndrome Secondary to Essential Thrombocythaemia Complicated by Acquired Von Willebrand Disease and Mimicking Hepatic Malignancy: A Case Report. (PubMed, Cureus)
The patient was managed with cytoreductive therapy; initially, hydroxycarbamide and anagrelide, later transitioned to ruxolitinib, alongside lifelong anticoagulation. At six-month follow-up, he demonstrated improved LFTs, stable blood counts, and no recurrent thrombotic events, with ongoing surveillance for variceal bleeding. This case underscores the importance of considering BCS in patients with ET and hepatic abnormalities, screening for AvWS to balance thrombotic/bleeding risks, and utilizing a multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach for optimal management.
