Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy characterized by impaired terminal differentiation. Despite intensive treatment regimes, the clinical outcomes remain suboptimal. Here, we report a new mechanism involving tetraspanin protein CD9 in orchestrating differentiation arrest and immune escape pediatric AML. The expression of on blasts AML patients (12.5%, n=115) was significantly lower than those ALL (93.6%, n=343, P<0.0001) or hematopoietic stem...

Abstract Despite the expanding portfolio of targeted therapies for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), direct implementation in children is challenging due to inherent differences underlying genetics. Here we established pharmacologic profile pediatric AML by screening myeloblast sensitivity approved and investigational agents, revealing candidates immediate clinical relevance. Drug responses ex vivo correlated patient characteristics, exhibited age-specific alterations, concorded...

Resistance to glucocorticoids (GC), the common agents for remission induction in pediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL), poses a significant therapeutic hurdle. Therefore, dissecting mechanisms shaping GC resistance could lead new treatment modalities. Here, we showed that CD9- BCP-ALL cells were preferentially resistant prednisone and dexamethasone over other standard cytotoxic agents. Concordantly, identified significantly more poor responders prephase among...
