Hypomethylating agents increase L1 retroelement expression without inducing novel insertions in myeloid malignancies [PDF]
Retroelements in the human genome are silenced via multiple mechanisms, including DNA methylation, to prevent their potential mutagenic effect. Retroelement activity, demonstrated by their expression and somatic retrotransposition events, was shown to be

Multi-Organ Adverse Reaction to Two Hypomethylating Agents: A Challenge in High-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome Treatment [PDF]
Background and Clinical Significance: Intermediate- to high-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), according to the Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-M), confers a high risk of progression into acute myeloid leukemia.

Antileukemic effect of venetoclax and hypomethylating agents via caspase-3/GSDME-mediated pyroptosis
Background The identifying of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) as a therapeutic target has led to a paradigm shift in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment. Pyroptosis is a novel antitumor therapeutic mechanism due to its cytotoxic and immunogenic effects. The

TREATMENT OF LOW-BLAST COUNT AML USING HYPOMETHYLATING AGENTS [PDF]
In 2002, the WHO classification reduced the proportion of blasts in the bone marrow (BM) necessary for the diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) from 30% to 20%, eliminating the RAEB-t subtype of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
