Opis:
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) produce all blood cells throughout the life of the organism. However, the high self-renewal and longevity of HSCs predispose them to accumulate mutations. The acquired mutations drive preleukemic clonal hematopoiesis, which is frequent among elderly people. The preleukemic state, although often asymptomatic, increases the risk of blood cancers. Nevertheless, the direct role of preleukemic HSCs is well-evidenced in adult myeloid leukemia (AML), while their contribution to other hematopoietic malignancies remains less understood. Here, we review the evidence supporting the role of preleukemic HSCs in different types of blood cancers, as well as present the alternative models of malignant evolution. Finally, we discuss the clinical importance of preleukemic HSCs in choosing the therapeutic strategies and provide the perspective on further studies on biology of preleukemic HSCs.

Opis:
Uptake and efflux of two anthracyclines, idarubicin (IDA) and daunorubicin (DNR), was studied in childhood acute leukemia samples. A comparison of IDA and DNR transport phenomena in relation to drug cytotoxicity and expression of P-glycoprotein (PGP) was made. Intracellular content of IDA/DNR was determined by flow cytometry using the fluorescent properties of the drugs. In vitro drug cytotoxicity was measured by the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. PGP expression was analysed by flow cytometry. The uptake and efflux rates were non-significantly higher for IDA than DNR. There were no differences between three types of leukemia with respect to drug content during accumulation and retention. After correction for the cell volume, intracellular concentration of both drugs in each moment of uptake and efflux was significantly lower in relapsed ALL and AML samples in comparison with initial ALL cells. Efflux, but not uptake, of both drugs was inversely correlated with PGP expression and IDA, but not DNR, cytotoxicity. The cytotoxicity was correlated with drug accumulation for both drugs and with drug retention for IDA. In conclusion, it seems that (1) intracellular content was related to the lipophilic properties of the drugs rather than to the type of leukemia, (2) decreased intracellular concentration of both drugs might have an impact on compromised therapy results in AML and relapsed ALL children, (3) IDA presents higher cytotoxicity, which possibly might be decreased by the presence of PGP. These results might have a practical impact on the rational design of new chemotherapy protocols.

Opis:
Objectives: The aim of the study was to make a general assessment of mental health, including signs of somatization, depression, anxiety, and functional disorders, in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and to assess the impact of factors such as the duration of the disease, side effects of therapy, age, and gender on the occurrence of the above-mentioned disorders. Another goal was to identify patients at risk of developing mental disorders. Methods: The study involved 91 patients and was conducted at the Hematology Clinic of the University Hospital in Krakow. The following questionnaires were used to assess mental health: survey created by the author, David Goldberg’s questionnaire GHQ-28, and the fourdimensional 4DSQ, measuring four dimensions of the mental condition. Results: The average level of the mental condition of the studied group was demonstrated. 29 people with mental disorders were identified. Women and people living alone obtained worse results in almost all dimensions of the questionnaires. The analysis revealed that factors such as age, number of side effects and gender significantly affect mental disorders in the studied group. A significant and positive correlation has been found between the number of side effects and the presence of somatization signs. Mediocre correlations occurred between age and mental disorders and all dimensions of the GHQ-28. Conclusions: The obtained results indicate that attempts should be made to reduce side effects among CML patients. Visiting the psychologist to work on the acceptance of the disease, psychoeducation, behavioral therapy, and contact with a psychiatrist to consider the introduction of pharmacotherapy is recommended. All of these methods may improve a patient’s quality of life.

Opis:
Objectives During computed tomography (CT), a large amount of ionizing radiation is emitted to ensure high quality of the obtained radiological image. This study measured the dose distribution around the CT scanner and the exposure of people staying near the CT scanner during the examination. Material and Methods The measurements used an anthropomorphic phantom to assess human exposure to ionizing radiation. The probability of inducing leukemia and other cancers as a result of absorbing doses recorded around the CT device was also calculated. Results The highest exposure to scattered radiation in the proximity of the CT scanner is recorded at the gantry of the tomograph, i.e., 55.7 μGy, and the lowest, below lower detection limit of 6 μGy at the end of the diagnostic table. The whole-body detector placed on the anthropomorphic phantom located at the diagnostic table right next to the CT gantry recorded 59.5 μSv and at the end of the table 1.5 μSv. The average doses to the lenses in these locations were: 32.1 μSv and 2.9 μSv, respectively. Conclusions The probability of induction of leukemia or other types of cancer is low, but the need for people to stay in the examination room during a CT examination should be limited to the necessary minimum.

Opis:
We investigated the cytotoxic effect of nitric oxide (NO) on primary culture of human hematological malignant cells. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP), an NO donor, had cytotoxic effects on the cells of some patients with malignant lymphoma (ML), acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMMoL), but not with multiple myeloma. Cultured cells from the ML patient remained sensitive to SNP after the cells became resistant to anti-cancer drugs. In contrast, the cells from the patients with AML and CMMoL became resistant to SNP while anti-cancer drugs remained effective. In samples of the cells of the patients with ML and AML, the number of CD3 positive lymphoma cell was decreased by SNP and the number of CD33 negative cells and normal B lymphocytes (CD19 positive cells) were increased. In the cells of the patient with ML, apoptosis was induced by SNP. SNP had no effect on lymphocytes of healthy volunteers. These results suggest that SNP had an anti-tumor effect on human hematological malignant cells.

Opis:
Periplasmic Escherichia coli L-asparaginase II with Y25F mutation in the active-site cavity has been obtained by recombinant techniques. The protein was crystallized in a new hexagonal form (P6522). Single crystals of this polymorph, suitable for X-ray diffraction, were obtained by vapor diffusion using 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol as precipitant (pH 4.8). The crystals are characterized by a = 81.0, c = 341.1 Å and diffract to 2.45 Å resolution. The asymmetric unit contains two protein molecules arranged into an AB dimer. The physiologically relevant ABA'B' homotetramer is generated by the action of the crystallographic 2-fold axis along [1, -1, 0]. Kinetic studies show that the loss of the phenolic hydroxyl group at position 25 brought about by the replacement of Y with F strongly impairs kcat without significantly affecting Km.

Opis:
Every year a very large number of children in the world suffer from acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and for years there has been a steady increase in the number of new cases. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia accounts for 75% of leukemia cases in the world. Lymphoblastic leukemia is a cancer disease that originates in B or T cell lymphocytes, which expansion takes place in blood and in the bone marrow. The etiology of the disease is not fully understood because it consists of several factors conditioning its formation. The most important element is the early detection and taking actions resulting in effective disease control through treatment and care of the patient. The nursing process should allow the patient to be involved in and accept the ongoing cancer process, and medical personnel, family and specialists in such fields as psychology and psychiatry should participate.

Opis:
Background. Chronic autoimmune inflammation in arterial wall may lead to atherosclerosis progression. Objective. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between Treg, Th17 and B1a cell blood frequencies as well as IgM autoantibodies to oxLDL and the abundance of carotid atherosclerosis. Material and methods. 18 patients with increased IMT (intima-media thickness) and 65 patients with different severity of carotid atherosclerotic plaques were included. Treg, Th17 and B1a cell blood frequencies were assessed via direct immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry, oxLDL as well as IgM autoantibodies to oxLDL were measured with commercial kits. Results. We observed higher values of Treg in patients without carotid atherosclerosis. Patients with intact carotid arteries as compared to patients with mild atherosclerotic plaques had decreased Th1 levels. OxLDL IgM levels were higher in patients with intact carotid arteries. Patients who received statin treatment had higher levels of Treg. Immunophenotyping of B cells revealed two cases of monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis and 1 case of B-CLL (B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia) in elderly patients with intact carotid arteries. Conclusion. We hypothesize that certain parameters of cell immunity may hamper atherosclerosis while protecting from lymphoproliferative disorders.
