Specification of haematopoietic stem cell fate via modulation of mitochondrial activity

Johan Auwerx, Matthias Lütolf, Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Mukul Girotra, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Aline Roch, Nicola Vannini, Sonja Giger, Gennady Nikitin

Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) differ from their committed progeny by relying primarily on anaerobic glycolysis rather than mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation for energy production. However, whether this change in the metabolic program is the cause ...

The chromatin remodeller Chd7 and the calcium ATPase Serca2 - adding new facets to the role of Notch in Hematopoiesis and T-ALL

Monique Coersmeyer

Project I: Chd7 Deficiency does not affect N1-driven T-ALL Induction and Maintenance nor impair Hematopoiesis Notch1 has been shown to be a key driver in pediatric T-cell acute lymphobastic leukemia (T-ALL). Previous work in the lab identified the chromati ...

Improved Angiostatic Activity of Dasatinib by Modulation with Hydrophobic Chains

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Catherine Marie Amélie Clavel, Emilia Paunescu

Dasatinib is an orally active nonselective tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat certain types of adult leukemia. By inhibiting PDGFR-beta and SFKs in both tumor cells and tumor associated endothelial cells, dasatinib inhibits tumor growth and angiogenes ...

6-Thioguanine-loaded polymeric micelles deplete myeloid-derived suppressor cells and enhance the efficacy of T cell immunotherapy in tumor-bearing mice

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Laura Jeanbart

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells that suppress effector T cell responses and can reduce the efficacy of cancer immunotherapies. We previously showed that ultra-small polymer nanoparticles eff ...

Functional Perturbation of the Gab2 Multiprotein Complex by High-affinity SH2-binding Monobodies in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

Emel Basak Gencer Akçok

Chronic myeloid leukemia is characterized by a reciprocal chromosomal translocation between chromosome 9 and 22, resulting in the expression of the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein. Despite the great improvement in patient survival using tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI ...

Targeting BCR-ABL and JAK2 in Ph+ ALL

Oliver Hantschel

In this issue of Blood, Appelmann et al provide evidence for prolonged survival and prevention of resistance in a mouse model of Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) by combined targeting of the BCR-ABL kinase and Janus ...

Assessing the role of Hes1 and identification of target genes in human and murine T-ALL

Silvia Wirth

The Notch signalling pathway is an ancient cell signalling mechanism that enables short-range communications between cells and controls a broad spectrum of cell fates and developmental processes. In the haematopoietic system Notch signalling has been linke ...

MicroRNA 21 is a novel oncogene in Notch1-driven acute lymphoblastic T cell leukemia

Fabian Junker

Notch signaling is a conserved cell-to-cell communication pathway essential in the development and maintenance of various tissues. Upon ligand binding, Notch receptors on the cell surface are proteolytically cleaved, generating the intracellular domain of ...

Safe Implementation of Embedded Software for a Portable Device Supporting Drug Administration

Giovanni De Micheli, Yann Thoma, Alena Simalatsar, Wenqi You Dubout

Poor adherence to medical regimen causes approximately 33% to 69% of medication-related hospitalizations and accounts for $100 billion in annual health care costs. In this paper we address the problem of unintentional non adherence, when patient fails to t ...

NUP214-ABL1 mediated cell proliferation in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is dependent on the LCK kinase and various interacting proteins

Oliver Hantschel

The NUP214-ABL1 fusion protein is a constitutively active protein tyrosine kinase that is found in 6% of patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and that promotes proliferation and survival of T-lymphoblasts. Although NUP214-ABL1 is sensitive to ...

Long-Term Single Cell Analysis of S. pombe on a Microfluidic Microchemostat Array

Sebastian Maerkl, Jean-Bernard Nobs

Although Schyzosaccharomyces pombe is one of the principal model organisms for studying the cell cycle, surprisingly few methods have characterized S. pombe growth on the single cell level, and no methods exist capable of analyzing thousands of cells and t ...
