Macrophages are widely distributed innate immune cells that play an indispensable role in a variety of physiologic and pathologic processes, including organ development, host defense, acute and chronic inflammation, solid and hematopoietic cancers. Beyond their inextricable role as conveyors of programmed cell death, we have previously...
Abstract Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a severe myeloid malignancy affecting the elderly, for which therapeutic options are limited. DNA hypomethylating agents (HMAs) provide transient responses, failing to eradicate the malignant clone. Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) aging involves a reorganization of heterochromatin, evidenced by...
Circulating monocytes are recruited in damaged tissues to generate macrophages that modulate disease progression. Colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) promotes the generation of monocyte-derived macrophages, which involves caspase activation. Here, we demonstrate that activated caspase-3 and caspase-7 are located to the vicinity of the...
Key Points Some 10.1% of adults with non–Langerhans cell histiocytosis have a concomitant myeloid neoplasm with each often harboring distinct mutations. The presence of distinct kinase mutations in histiocytosis and myeloid neoplasms resulted in discordant responses to targeted therapy.
