Podcast: Procrastination or Mental Health Issues?
 Since time was invented, people have fallen into three main categories: Chronically early, on-time, or late. You don’t need mental illness to put things off until the last minute and it doesn’t take anxiety to get things done well ahead of schedule. But, there’s also no denying that living with mental illness can – and does – impact our ability to be punctual and to accomplish goals. In this episode, Gabe and Michelle discuss the difference between putting things off because we are making bad choices and putting things off because of mental health issues. Listen now!

Why corruption is ruining your health care PODCAST
“Doctors help patients, and they love us for it. We fix bones, replace joints, cure killer infections, and control diabetes with insulin. We use painless scans for diagnosis. Liver, kidney, and heart transplants are now routine. Some patients get cured of lymphomas, leukemia, Hodgkin ’s disease, and testicular cancer. Lives are prolonged for myeloma and amyloidosis.

Science Signaling Podcast for 29 November 2016: Pre-B cell receptor signaling in leukemia.
Abstract This Podcast features an interview with Bridget Wilson, author of a Research Article that appears in the 29 November 2016 issue of Science Signaling, about pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR) signaling in B cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). Signaling through the pre-BCR, an immature form of the BCR, promotes the survival of B cell progenitors and has been implicated in the pathology of BCP-ALL. Erasmus et al found that pre-BCRs formed transient homomeric complexes that correlated with pro-survival signaling. Preventing homotypic interactions between pre-BCRs sensitized B cells to chemothera...

Cord Blood Transplant: Cord Blood Storage
The director of the pediatric blood and marrow transplant program at MUSC, Dr. Michelle Hudspeth, describes the use of umbilical cord blood, which can be a source for stem cells. In this podcast, she focuses on the storage of cord blood and talks about donation of cord blood to the national registry. Dr. Hudspeth concludes by telling a very moving story of a baby diagnosed with leukemia at three months old who was saved by cord blood from a donor individual.

Leukemia: Breakthrough Research Projects
Dr. Rob Stuart and Dr. Dan Fernandes have devoted years to understanding and treating patients with cancers of the blood. In this podcast, they discuss how several conversations led to major breakthroughs in research for chronic lymphocytic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia. The Medical University of South Carolina’s Hollings Cancer Center has recently been designated a National Cancer Institute and it’s obvious that teamwork and collaboration from doctors played an integral part in this designation.

Membrane-Associated Proteinase 3 on Granulocytes and Acute Myeloid Leukemia Inhibits T Cell Proliferation.
In this study, we investigated the effect of membrane P3 (mP3)-expressing PMN and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) blasts on the proliferation of CD4 and CD8 T cells in vitro. We demonstrate that mP3-expressing PMN significantly inhibits autologous healthy donor T cell proliferation but does not affect cytokine production in activated T cells and that this effect requires cell proximity and was abrogated by P3 blockade. This inhibition required P3 enzyme activity. However, suppression was not reversed by either the addition of catalase or the inhibition of arginase I. In addition to P3 blockade, anti-low density lipoprotein re...

Prognostic Impact of Circulating Tumor DNA Status Post-Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Conclusions: In summary, we, for the first time, demonstrated that non-invasive serum ctDNA-testing, regardless of DTA genes, had comparable utility to molecular MRD testing of BM with regard to identifying patients at high risk for relapse in AML and MDS undergoing myeloablative alloSCT. Although prospective large-scale analyses are needed to confirm our findings, such non-invasive ctDNA-testing might allow for rapid clinical decision-making and, ultimately, subsequent risk-adapted therapeutic interventions post-alloSCT in AML and MDS.Figure 1.

Prognostic impact of circulating tumor DNA status post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in AML and MDS
This study was performed to assess the utility of tumor-derived fragmentary DNA, or circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), for identifying high-risk patients for relapse of acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome (AML/MDS) after undergoing myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). We retrospectively collected tumor and available matched serum samples at diagnosis and 1 and 3 months post-alloSCT from 53 patients with AML/MDS. After identifying driver mutations in 51 patients using next-generation sequencing, we designed at least 1 personalized digital polymerase chain reaction assay per...

Mp3: role of histone deactylase (hdac) inhibitors in adult t-cell lymphoma/leukemia (atl)
Conclusions In our small experience of romidepsin in relapsed/refractory ATL, patients appear to have modest response rates and higher rate of cytopenias when compared to other PTCL subtypes in clinical trials. Given the concerns for viral reactivation and lack of data for use of romidepsin in ATL, it should be used cautiously.
