Acute and Chronic Leukemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The four primary subgroups of leukemia include chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Very little is known about the regional variation of leukemia and subtypes in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA).

Investigator‐Led Research to Improve the Diagnostic Assessment of Platelet Function Disorders: Reflections on the Challenges and Rewards

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 721-731, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Investigator‐led research and quality improvement initiatives have led to important improvements in the diagnostic assessment of platelet function disorders (PFD). Methods Personal reflections were used to summarize our contributions to knowledge on PFD diagnostic assessment, pathogenesis, and bleeding risks.

Regulation of differentiation of MEG01 to megakaryocytes and platelet-like particles by Valproic acid through Notch3 mediated actin polymerization

Platelets, 2019
Valproic acid (VPA) is one of the HDAC inhibitors used for the treatment of neurological disorders and hematological malignancies. Its role in self-renewal and proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is well studied, but little is known about ...

Establishment of an ES cell-derived murine megakaryocytic cell line, MKD1, with features of primary megakaryocyte progenitors.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Because of the scarcity of megakaryocytes in hematopoietic tissues, studying megakaryopoiesis heavily relies on the availability of appropriate cellular models.

Overexpression of heparanase in mice promoted megakaryopoiesis [PDF]

Glycobiology, 2018
Heparanase, an endo-glucuronidase that specifically cleaves heparan sulfate (HS), is upregulated in several pathological conditions. In this study, we aimed to find a correlation of heparanase expression and platelets production. In the transgenic mice overexpressing human heparanase (Hpa-tg), hematological analysis of blood samples revealed a ...

Tumor‐educated platelets in cancer diagnostics and prognostics: A critical appraisal and roadmap for clinical translation

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 2, Page 302-319, 15 July 2026.
Abstract Tumor‐educated platelets (TEPs) are emerging as a compelling frontier in liquid biopsy, functioning as dynamic, systemic sensors that sequester and process tumor‐derived biomolecules. This interaction imprints an integrated molecular signature of malignancy—spanning the transcriptome, proteome, lipidome, and crucially, the captured genome ...

Foxp3 Regulates Megakaryopoiesis and Platelet Function [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2009
Objective— Platelets are crucial for hemostasis and are vital regulators of inflammation. Foxp3 is a key transcription factor for T regulatory cell development. Humans with IPEX (immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, x-linked) and the scurfy (

Eyes Toward the Clinic: Selective Inhibition and Degradation Approaches to Bromodomain‐Containing Proteins

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
The function of bromodomain‐containing proteins in regulating gene transcription is reviewed here, including the development of chemical probes and targeted protein degradation modalities (e.g., PROTACs). This extends to clinical efforts targeting the BET bromodomain‐containing proteins. Challenges of selectivity, future prospects, and the differential

Age‐Associated Variations in Complete Blood Cell Count Parameters and Derived Indices Among Community‐Dwelling Chinese Older Adults

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 14, July 2026.
This cross‐sectional study analyzed data from 9331 participants aged 24–97 to characterize age‐ and sex‐related physiological trajectories of complete blood cell count (CBC) parameters and derived inflammatory indices. Key findings encompassed age‐related declines in red blood cell and platelet counts, elevations in RDW‐CV indices and monocyte ...
