CRISPR dependency screens in primary hematopoietic stem cells identify KDM3B as a genotype-specific vulnerability in IDH2- and TET2-mutant cells

CRISPR-Dependent Screening in Primary Hematopoietic Stem Cells Identifies KDM3B as Specific Susceptibility for IDH2 and TET2 Mutant Genotypes Background and Significance Clonal Hematopoiesis (CH) refers to the abnormal growth of genetically distinct subclones of cells initiated by specific mutations in Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs). This phenomen...

Targeting Acute Myeloid Leukemia Stem Cells Through Perturbation of Mitochondrial Calcium

Targeting Acute Myeloid Leukemia Stem Cells Through Perturbation of Mitochondrial Calcium

This is an academic paper report on the study of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) stem cells. The study found that venetoclax treatment targeting the BCL-2 protein induces different mitochondrial calcium signaling changes in drug-sensitive and drug-resistant AML stem cells, thereby affecting their oxidative phosphorylation metabolism and survival. The ...

Mechanisms of Response and Tolerance to Active RAS Inhibition in KRAS-Mutant NSCLC

Response and Resistance Mechanisms of RAS Inhibitors in KRAS-Mutant NSCLC Research Background With the clinical development of RAS inhibitors, the treatment of KRAS-mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) faces a new turning point. However, in clinical practice, patients show poor long-term responses to RAS inhibitors, influencing clinical effica...

High-Throughput Discovery of MHC Class I- and II-Restricted T Cell Epitopes Using Synthetic Cellular Circuits

High-Throughput Discovery of MHC Class I and II Restricted T Cell Epitopes Using a Novel Synthetic Cellular Circuit Research Background and Issues In recent years, antigen discovery technologies have made remarkable progress, especially in the application of human T-cell receptors (TCRs) in the recognition of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) ...

Principled distillation of UK Biobank phenotype data reveals underlying structure in human variation

In this report, we present a detailed evaluation of a research paper published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, titled “Principled Refinement of UK Biobank Phenotypic Data Reveals the Latent Structure of Human Variation.” The study, conducted by Caitlin E. Carey, Rebecca Shafee, Robbee Wedow, among others, was published online on XX XX, XXXX....
