Correlation between epigenetic modifier gene mutations and prognosis of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a systematic review and meta-analysis. (PubMed, Hematology)
In addition, patients with KMT2A mutation had shorter OS compared to those with wild type (HR, 4.605; P = 0.045), whereas other EMMs had no impact on prognosis in any type of ALL. Mutations in DNMT3A, IDH, PHF6 and KMT2A showed a significant prognostic effect in ALL or in its specific subtypes, which might contribute to risk stratification and treatment guidance in the management of ALL patients.

Condensation-dependent interactome of a chromatin remodeler underlies tumor suppressor activities. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Among these components, MLL mutations frequently co-occur with CHD1 mutations in various cancers, suggesting a shared pathway in cancer development. These findings underscore the importance of chromatin remodeler condensation as a regulatory hub in various cellular processes and tumor suppression.

Age-specific mutation profiles and their prognostic implications in pediatric KMT2A-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Haematologica)
Multivariate analysis identified older age, a high white blood cell count, KMT2A::MLLT4, and KRAS mutations as independent adverse prognostic factors for both EFS and OS. These age-specific mutation profiles suggest distinct disease mechanisms across age groups and may help refine risk stratification and treatment strategies for pediatric KMT2A-r AML.

Comprehensive analysis of the clinical feature, myeloid neoplasm-related gene mutation profiles and T cell diversity acquired pure red cell aplasia. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
This study described the clinical features, mutation landscape and TCR rearrangement profile in a relatively larger PRCA cohort, which may contribute to the clear perception of PRCA and the development of more potent treatment approaches.

Targeting menin in lysine methyltransferase 2A/nucleophosmin-mutated leukemia: A novel strategy from epigenetic dysregulation to clinical therapy (Review). (PubMed, Oncol Lett)
The present study systematically reviewed biological functions of the menin protein and its application in targeted therapy for specific AML subtypes. Notably, menin inhibitors have demonstrated potential in KMT2A/NPM1-mutant leukemia, however, the off-target effects, resistance mechanisms and a lack of biomarkers due to the extensive nature of their binding interface remains to be elucidated.

These findings justify the integration of menin inhibitors into the AML therapeutic landscape, and support ongoing randomized trials to confirm their benefit in both frontline and relapse or refractory settings.

An innovative full-size pathogenic tandem duplication mutation precise detection system based on next-generation sequencing. (PubMed, Exp Biol Med (Maywood))
The innovative mutation detection system is appropriate to small-to large-sized ITDs and other pathogenic tandem duplication mutations, expected to save 96.3% of the workload. This offers significant potential for accurate clinical assessment of ITD mutations and subsequent prognosis in AML patients.
