Long-term survival rates for patients with leukemia after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are encouraging but personalized transplant strategies remain important to improve outcomes.
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is a haematological malignancy characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of immature lymphoid cells. Over past decades, significant progress has been made in understanding the biology of ALL, resulting in remarkable improvements in its diagnosis, treatment and monitoring. Since the advent of chemotherapy, ALL has been the platform to test for innovative approaches applicable to cancer in general. For example, the advent of omics medicine has led to a deeper understanding of the molecular and genetic features that underpin ALL. Innovations in genomic profiling techniques have identified specific genetic alterations and mutations that drive ALL, inspiring new therapies. Targeted agents, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immunotherapies, have shown promising results in subgroups of patients while minimizing adverse effects. Furthermore, the development of chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy represents a breakthrough in ALL treatment, resulting in remarkable responses and potential long-term remissions. Advances are not limited to treatment modalities alone. Measurable residual disease monitoring and ex vivo drug response profiling screening have provided earlier detection of disease relapse and identification of exceptional responders, enabling clinicians to adjust treatment strategies for individual patients. Decades of supportive and prophylactic care have improved the management of treatment-related complications, enhancing the quality of life for patients with ALL. Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is a haematological malignancy characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of immature lymphoid cells. In this Primer, Pagliaro et al. discuss the epidemiology, mechanisms, diagnosis and treatments of ALL.

The bone marrow microenvironment is a critical regulator of haematopoietic stem cell self-renewal and fate1. Although it is appreciated that ageing, chronic inflammation and other insults compromise bone marrow function and thereby negatively affect haematopoiesis2, it is not known whether different bone compartments exhibit distinct microenvironmental properties and functional resilience. Here we use imaging, pharmacological approaches and mouse genetics to uncover specialized properties of bone marrow in adult and ageing skull. Specifically, we show that the skull bone marrow undergoes lifelong expansion involving vascular growth, which results in an increasing contribution to total haematopoietic output. Furthermore, skull is largely protected against major hallmarks of ageing, including upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines, adipogenesis and loss of vascular integrity. Conspicuous rapid and dynamic changes to the skull vasculature and bone marrow are induced by physiological alterations, namely pregnancy, but also pathological challenges, such as stroke and experimental chronic myeloid leukaemia. These responses are highly distinct from femur, the most extensively studied bone marrow compartment. We propose that skull harbours a protected and dynamically expanding bone marrow microenvironment, which is relevant for experimental studies and, potentially, for clinical treatments in humans. Skull bone marrow expands during adult life, exhibits lifelong vascular growth and increases its haematopoietic potential during ageing.

Tissue inflammation is a hallmark of tumour microenvironments. In the bone marrow, tumour-associated inflammation impacts normal niches for haematopoietic progenitor cells and mature immune cells and supports the outgrowth and survival of malignant cells residing in these niche compartments. This Review provides an overview of our current understanding of inflammatory changes in the bone marrow microenvironment of myeloid and lymphoid malignancies, using acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma as examples and highlights unique and shared features of inflammation in niches for progenitor cells and plasma cells. Importantly, inflammation exerts profoundly different effects on normal bone marrow niches in these malignancies, and we provide context for possible drivers of these divergent effects. We explore the role of tumour cells in inflammatory changes, as well as the role of cellular constituents of normal bone marrow niches, including myeloid cells and stromal cells. Integrating knowledge of disease-specific dynamics of malignancy-associated bone marrow inflammation will provide a necessary framework for future targeting of these processes to improve patient outcome. Haematological malignancies are associated with inflammation in the bone marrow. In this Review, the authors discuss how tumour-associated inflammation affects the normal functions of the bone marrow and supports the outgrowth and survival of malignant cells. Moreover, they describe how the inflammatory changes in the bone marrow differ in myeloid and lymphoid malignancies.
A anemia no idoso tem uma elevada prevalência sendo de 26% em indivíduos com +75 anos, onde neste grupo etário a prevalência da deficiência de ferro é de 37%. No idoso 1/3 dos casos de anemia são devidos a uma alimentação deficiente em elementos nutricionais essenciais e 1/3 a doença crónica, nomeadamente gastrointestinal, cardíaca ou renal.
