Interestingly, MCPyV positivity was significantly correlated with female sex but not with age or specific MPN genetic mutations, except for myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene (MPL) mutations. These findings suggest a potential association between MCPyV and MPNs, particularly ET, and support further investigation into the role of human polyomavirus in megakaryocytic lineage biology.
Antigenic shifts affecting megakaryocytic, myeloid, progenitor-associated, and lymphoid markers are common after chemotherapy. For MRD assessment, the use of more specific megakaryocytic markers such as CD110, together with comprehensive multiparameter flow cytometry panels, may improve detection accuracy.
Most importantly, it underscores the limitations of bone marrow biopsy as a standalone diagnostic tool and emphasizes the critical role of genetic testing in establishing a definitive diagnosis when clinical suspicion persists. Early identification of CAMT improves long-term outcomes, prevents prolonged ineffective treatment, and facilitates timely referral for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
In the disseminated NSG model, DX1-2C11 delivered immediate tumor burden reduction and significantly prolonged the overall survival of mice compared to the control group. Taken together, these data suggest that bispecific T cell engaging antibody targeting mutCALR represents a curative strategy that efficiently eliminates mutant MPN stem cells in vivo.

Nearly 50% of PMF patients experience anemia (hemoglobin (Hb) < 10 g/dL), often worsened by JAK inhibitors like ruxolitinib and fedratinib. However, heterogeneity in control groups limited direct efficacy comparisons. Larger studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.

Consequently, we developed a macrophage-based proteolipid vesicle (mPLV) coencapsulating the CCR2 antagonist PF-4136309 (PF) and gemcitabine (GEM), named PF/GEM@mPLV. PF/GEM@mPLV markedly inhibits tumor recurrence following iIRE, diminishes hepatic metastases, and prolongs survival in preclinical PDAC models. These findings uncover the role of CCR2+ TAMs in iIRE-induced immunosuppression, offering a promising strategy to enhance the clinical potential of IRE in PDAC.
Finally, we showed that the lysosome-autophagosome mediated secretion was dependent upon Rab1A. Our study conclusively showed the unconventional traffic of TpoR and its modulation by the driver mutations causing myeloproliferation.
Following four cycles of induction therapy with olverembatinib, vincristine, and prednisone, the patient achieved complete hematologic and molecular remission. A chemotherapy-free consolidation therapy with olverembatinib and blinatumomab maintained sustained complete molecular remission at follow-up. To our knowledge, this represents the first case of Ph-positive B-ALL with e13a3 transcripts arising in a patient with preexisting ET, providing critical therapeutic insights for managing similar cases.
Finally, we demonstrated that CALR ∆52 decreased the glucose uptake and cellular ATP levels in a c-JUN-mTORC2-dependent manner. These findings not only contribute to our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying mutant CALR driven myeloproliferative neoplasm but also provide potential therapeutic targets against the disease.
Our results delineate Mpl-dependent and -independent phenotypes induced by Jak2 V617F and confirm that inhibiting Mpl expression at the stem cell level negates the long-term advantage of the mutant clone. Consequently, while MPL emerges as a major player in Jak2 V617F positive MPNs, our study underscores that it is not the exclusive contributor, broadening the spectrum for therapeutic intervention.
Essential thrombocythemia is a rare clonal myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with an increased risk of venous and arterial thrombosis, hemorrhage, myelofibrosis, and acute myeloid leukemia. Based on individual risk factors for thrombosis, persons with essential thrombocythemia may be treated with low-dose aspirin, either alone or in combination with a cytoreductive drug such as hydroxyurea.
Notably, the agonists did not activate the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), a highly homologous receptor whose activation may lead to tumor progression. Collectively, this work has developed an approach toward "functional" DEL selections on the cell surface and may provide a widely applicable method for agonist discovery for membrane proteins.
