Patchouli alcohol triggers autophagic cell death in non-small cell lung cancer cells through targeting GNAI1 to dissociate the GNAI1/ARRB1 complex. (PubMed, Int J Biol Sci)
Specifically, PA specifically disrupted the GNAI1-ARRB1 interaction, inhibiting downstream pro-survival pathways (ERK/JAK2-STAT3/mTOR) and ultimately leading to autophagic cell death in NSCLC cells. In summary, this work provides the first evidence that PA exerts anti-NSCLC effects by targeting the GNAI1/ARRB1 axis, offering a promising therapeutic strategy against advanced NSCLC.

The evolution of polyclonal competition in aging hematopoiesis. (PubMed, Cancer Discov)
DNMT3A-variants were enriched for single-hit clones, whereas TET2, ASXL1, JAK2, SF3B1, and SRSF2 showed enrichment for multi-hit evolution. These findings suggest precursors of hematological malignancies are identifiable prior to transformation and may facilitate early intervention strategies.

Structure-Guided SOCS3 Peptidomimetics: Design and Functional Characterization. (PubMed, ACS Omega)
In both cases, the good biocompatibility of the designed mimetics appeared promising for evaluating signaling-dependent effects. These findings validate a multiregion, structure-guided design strategy and identify an improved SOCS3 proteomimetic scaffold with potential for targeting dysregulated JAK/STAT signaling in cancer.

Association Between JAK2 V617F Somatic Mutation and Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms. (PubMed, Genes (Basel))
Compelling emerging evidence supports an association between the JAK2 V617F somatic mutation and the formation of thoracic aortic aneurysms, with VAF acting as a valuable biomarker for aneurysm risk. However, no studies have evaluated whether increasing VAF influences aneurysm growth rate, highlighting the need for future clinical research.

SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions: Is Combination Therapy Here for Myelofibrosis? (PubMed, Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk)
Emerging combination strategies and their clinical development will be reviewed here, including investigations that pair JAKi therapy with BCL-2 family inhibitors, BET inhibitors, restored p53 cell death signals, telomerase inhibitors, PIM1 kinase inhibitors, and mutant CALR targeted therapies. While several combination clinical trials suggest improved spleen and symptom responses and the possibility of disease modification, toxicity profiles and optimal sequencing remain areas of active investigation.

JAK2 V617F mutations and thrombosis in BCR-ABL1 negative myeloproliferative neoplasms: clinical profile and hematologic insights. (PubMed, Leuk Res Rep)
While JAK2 V617F mutation was associated with distinct hematologic profiles, it was not independently linked to thrombotic risk. These findings highlight the significance of clinical comorbidities and hematologic parameters in thrombotic event occurrences in MPN patients.

MAL/SPP1 axis drives tumor proliferation and immune evasion via JAK2/STAT3 and MHC class Ib in breast cancer. (PubMed, Int Immunopharmacol)
Simultaneously, it subverts anti-tumor immunity by exploiting major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class Ib molecules, suppressing T-cell infiltration and impairing CD8+ T-cell tumor-lytic activity within the tumor microenvironment. Critically, targeted inhibition of MAL effectively curtailed breast cancer progression, underscoring its promise as a novel therapeutic target for metastatic breast cancer intervention.

Myeloproliferative Neoplasms, Clonal Thrombosis, and Vascular Disease: Can Cardiology Learn from Hematology? (PubMed, Cardiol Rev)
Key lessons include the importance of clonal hematopoiesis as a cardiovascular risk factor, the role of inflammation and hematologic dysregulation in accelerating atherothrombosis, and the therapeutic relevance of antiplatelet optimization, hematocrit control, cytoreductive therapy, and anti-inflammatory interventions. The review also outlines diagnostic situations in cardiology where MPNs should be suspected, proposes opportunities for improved risk stratification, and identifies research priorities bridging the 2 specialties.

Analysis of CALR-mutated essential thrombocythemia as a distinct disease entity compared with JAK2 V617F-mutated and triple-negative patients. (PubMed, Turk J Med Sci)
The CALR mutation was lower among females, and was associated with lower leukocyte counts, and Hb and Hct levels, and with higher platelet counts. In multivariable analysis, the apparent protective association of CALR with thrombosis was not independent.

A single JAK2-V617F hematopoietic stem cell can initiate myeloproliferative neoplasm when transplanted into non-conditioned recipient mice. (PubMed, Hemasphere)
In contrast, BM from mice expressing the human JAK2-V617F failed to engraft in non-conditioned immunocompetent C57BL/6 mice, while BM from mice expressing the mouse Jak2-V617F engrafted and initiated MPN, suggesting that mouse JAK2-V617F protein, which differs from the endogenous JAK2 in only one amino acid, was tolerated. Our results show that JAK2-V617F mutant HSCs can outcompete resident non-mutated HSCs even in the absence of elevated cytokine levels and without the need of emptying stem cell niches by irradiation.
