Journal: Flavopiridol restores granulopoiesis in experimental models of severe congenital neutropenia. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 5, 2025 Flavopiridol also restored granulopoiesis caused by diminished CEBPA expression, a known defective signaling molecule in CN. Thus, we described for the first time a potential therapy for CN with flavopiridol that could be potentially used to treat patients with different types of neutropenia.

A high mortality rate was observed among children with ALL, with significant risk factors including relapse, age over 10 years, elevated LDH levels, sepsis, low platelet counts, T-cell ALL, malaria infection, and induction failure. To improve survival rates, it is essential to address these factors by optimizing treatment regimens and minimizing delays in diagnosis and care delivery.

Pathogenic variants were more frequently observed in patients with a specific medical history or changes in cytopenia, and in those with additional clinical features (cytogenetic abnormalities or non-severe AA). This study demonstrated the diagnostic usefulness of NGS-based target gene sequencing for pediatric and AYA patients with suspected genetic hematologic disorders, supporting the need for multicenter studies and standardized guideline development.

After the unexpected occurrence of oncogenesis associated with the initial retroviral vector designs, significant advances have led to successful gene therapy clinical trials for three forms of SCID, which demonstrated the safety and efficacy of this approach. Active preclinical and clinical studies are ongoing for diverse IEI, including chronic granulomatous disease, leukocyte adhesion deficiency, severe congenital neutropenia, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, X-linked agammaglobulinemia and familial forms of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

In most conditions, leukocyte counts decreased by 48?h, but remained within reference intervals in blood stored up to 120?h. Storage-related leukocyte changes in blood stored under conditions mimicking ambulatory practice resulted in a pseudo-inflammatory leukogram, which could alter interpretation and patient management.

Journal: Toxicities of taxane-based chemotherapy in prostate cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 4, 2025 Despite the wide-ranging toxicities of taxanes, they remain a cornerstone in advanced PCa treatment. Preventing and managing severe neutropenia, febrile neutropenia, and QoL-impairing toxicities are essential for maintaining treatment continuity and achieving optimal outcomes.

Journal: Toxicities of PARP inhibitors in genitourinary cancers. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 4, 2025 However, patients need to be carefully selected and informed, to allow for optimal balancing between the benefits and nonneglectable risks of severe toxicities. Better understanding of PARPi toxicity profile can improve personalized decision-making and enhance treatment compliance, through raising patients' awareness about the possible side effects of PARPi.

Journal: Treatment of feline infectious peritonitis in cats with molnupiravir: clinical observations and outcomes for 54 cases. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 4, 2025 Better understanding of PARPi toxicity profile can improve personalized decision-making and enhance treatment compliance, through raising patients' awareness about the possible side effects of PARPi. Molnupiravir demonstrated comparable survival outcomes to remdesivir/GS-441524 for treating FIP and serves as an accessible, effective option across various presentations, including ocular and neurologic forms.

CLL cell-derived exosomes inhibited hematopoietic progenitor proliferation, hindering the supportive effect of monocyte-derived fibrocytes. Together, our findings suggest that CLL cell-derived exosomes disrupt the immune and hematopoietic systems and contribute to disease progression in patients with CLL.
