Inflammation is a physiological mechanism of the immune response and has an important role in maintaining hematopoietic cell niche bone marrow. During this process, participation molecules produced by innate immunity cells to variety pathogen-associated molecular patterns damage-associated observed. However, chronic inflammation intrinsically associated with leukemogenesis, as it induces DNA damage stem contributes creation preleukemic clone. Several factors influence malignant transformation within microenvironment, inflammasomes having crucial addition acting regulation hematopoiesis its homeostasis. Inflammasomes are intracellular multimeric complexes responsible for maturation secretion proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β interleukin-18 death process via pyroptosis.

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) management remains a significant challenge in oncology due to its low survival rates and high post-treatment relapse rates, mainly attributed treatment-resistant leukaemic stem cells (LSCs) residing bone marrow (BM) niches. This review offers an in-depth analysis of AML progression, highlighting the pivotal role extracellular vesicles (EVs) dynamic remodelling BM niche intercellular communication. We explore recent advancements elucidating mechanisms through which EVs facilitate complex crosstalk, effectively promoting hallmarks drug resistance. Adopting temporal view, we chart evolving landscape EV-mediated interactions within niche, underscoring transformative potential these insights for therapeutic intervention. Furthermore, discusses emerging understanding endothelial cell subsets' impact across niches shaping disease adding another layer complexity progression treatment highlight cutting-edge methodologies, such as organ-on-chip (OoC) single-EV technologies, provide unprecedented into AML-niche human setting.

Abstract Purpose of Review To examine the epidemiological data on obesity and leukemia; evaluate effect leukemia outcomes in childhood acute lymphoblastic (ALL) survivors; assess potential mechanisms through which may increase risk provide effects management leukemia. Preventive (diet, physical exercise, pharmacotherapy, bariatric surgery) measures, repurposing drugs, candidate therapeutic agents targeting oncogenic pathways insulin resistance as well challenges COVID-19 pandemic are also discussed. Recent Findings Obesity has been implicated development 13 cancers, such breast, endometrial, colon, renal, esophageal multiple myeloma. Leukemia is estimated to account for approximately 2.5% 3.1% all new cancer incidence mortality, respectively, while it represents most frequent children younger than 5 years. Current evidence indicates that have an impact Increased birthweight be associated with worse increased mortality leukemic patients. However, there several limitations meta-analyses studies. In addition, weight gain occur a substantial number ALL survivors majority studies documented relapse among patients obesity. The main pathophysiological linking include bone marrow adipose tissue; hormones insulin-like growth factor system sex hormones; pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-6 TNF-α; adipocytokines, adiponectin, leptin, resistin, visfatin; dyslipidemia lipid signaling; chronic low-grade inflammation oxidative stress; other emerging mechanisms. Summary leukemia, being only known factors could prevented or modified loss, healthy diet, exercise. Pharmacological interventions, drugs used cardiometabolic comorbidities, surgery recommended obesity-related prevention.

Abstract Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) released by acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells have been reported to influence the trilineage differentiation of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem (BM‐MSCs). However, it remains elusive which biological cargo from AML‐sEVs is responsible for this effect. In study, sEVs were isolated cell‐conditioned media and blood plasma using size‐exclusion chromatography ultrafiltration characterized according MISEV2018 guidelines. Our results demonstrated that increased proliferation BM‐MSCs. Conversely, key proteins are important normal haematopoiesis downregulated in Additionally, we revealed significantly reduced BM‐MSCs osteoblasts without affecting adipogenic or chondrogenic differentiation. Next, LC‐MS/MS proteomics elucidated various proteins, including Y‐box‐binding protein 1 (YBX1), upregulated both treated with AML‐sEVs. Clinically relevant, found YBX1 considerably most paediatric AML patient‐derived compared healthy controls.

Clinical management of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) poses significant challenges due to its poor prognosis and heterogeneous nature. Discovering new biomarkers is crucial for improving risk assessment customizing treatment approaches. While leukocyte-specific transcript 1 (LST1) implicated in inflammation immune regulation, function AML remains ambiguous. In this investigation, we conduct a comprehensive investigation into LST1 expression profiles, clinical implications, functional pathways, interactions AML, leveraging multi-omics data experimental validations. Our examination shows increased levels when compared regular hematopoietic tissues, discovery validated by RT-qPCR Western blot analyses separate group. Elevated correlate with distinct clinicopathological features, including white blood cell counts, non-M3 FAB subtype, intermediate/poor cytogenetic risk. Importantly, heightened predict unfavorable overall survival outcomes across various subgroups, independently age We develop an integrative nomogram incorporating expression, demonstrating robust prognostic efficacy patient survival. Transcriptomic profiling identifies 275 differentially expressed genes between LST1-high -low cases, enriched cytokine signaling, modulation, adhesion, oncogenic pathways. Furthermore, exhibits associations the infiltration diverse subsets within microenvironment, particularly cells regulatory T (Tregs). conclusion, our study establishes as novel indicator immunological relevance emphasizing potential therapeutic implications.
