Professor Xiaojun Huang ‘s Team Reveals New Mechanism of Injury to Bone Marrow Endothelial Progenitor Cells and Proposes Targeted Repair Strategies

🩸 Professor Xiaojun Huang and Team: Illuminating Hope in Blood Health Meet the unsung heroes—Professor Xiaojun Huang and their dedicated team—who've ventured into the labyrinth of blood health, uncovering a profound truth within our marrow's tapestry. They've unraveled a poignant narrative—a disruption in glycolysis, a hidden force causing turmoil for endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). This upheaval imperils the delicate dance of hematopoiesis, the heartbeat of our blood's resilience. Backed by national R&D programs and the unwavering support of the National Natural Science Foundation, their discovery isn't just science; it's a lifeline for those navigating the storm of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and stem cell transplants. Picture the impact—precision treatments targeting this anomaly, preserving the marrow's sanctity amid the chaos of treatments, kindling hope for countless souls. Their tale echoed at prestigious gatherings—the 24th European Hematology Association Congress (EHA) and the 48th European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation Congress (EBMT)—etched in Haematologica journal's pages.

ASH Exclusive Interview | Professor Junmin Li: Addition of Homoharringtonine Improves Induction Therapy Efficacy in Low to Intermediate-Risk AML Patients with Chemotherapy Insensitivity

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous group with varying sensitivities to chemotherapy. The "7+3" regimen has been the standard induction chemotherapy for AML for 50 years. In the era of precision medicine, optimizing induction therapy for AML is a crucial issue. At the recent 65th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, Professor Junmin Li's team from the Hematology Department of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, presented the initial results of the RJ-AML2016 study. This multicenter, randomized, Phase III trial investigated the efficacy of adding Homoharringtonine (HHT) to optimize the idarubicin and cytarabine induction regimen based on Day 5 Peripheral Blast Clearance Rate (D5-PBCR) in newly diagnosed young AML patients. "Hematology Frontier" had the privilege of interviewing Professor Li on the study's key findings and the team's next research plans.
