The renal cortical collecting duct (CCD) plays an important role in systemic acid-base homeostasis. β-intercalated cells secrete most of the HCO[Formula: see text], which is mediated by a luminal, DIDS-insensitive, Cl − /HCO[Formula: text] exchange. identity luminal exchanger matter debate. Anion isoform 4 (AE4) cloned from rabbit kidney was proposed to perform this function (Tsuganezawa H et al. J Biol Chem 276: 8180–8189, 2001). By contrast, it (Royaux IE Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 98:...

Core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML) is characterized by the presence of inv(16)/t(16;16) or t(8;21) and classified as a favorable risk 2022 European LeukemiaNet (ELN) guidelines. The CD33-targeting antibody-drug conjugate, gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO), commonly added to intensive chemotherapy (IC) in CBF-AML. We sought compare outcomes patients treated with IC without GO included 200 CBF-AML across seven academic centers. Induction treatment regimens were categorized alone,...

Abstract Current therapies for high-grade TP53 -mutated myeloid neoplasms (≥10% blasts) do not offer a meaningful survival benefit except allogeneic stem cell transplantation in the minority who achieve complete response to first line therapy (CR1). To identify reliable pre-therapy predictors of first-line (CR1) and outcomes, we assembled cohort 242 individuals with ≥10% blasts well-annotated clinical, molecular pathology data. Key outcomes examined were CR1 & 24-month (OS24). In this...

Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs) are a late complication of cytotoxic therapy and defined as distinct entity by the World Health Organization. While link between chemotherapy exposure risk subsequent t-MN is well-described, association radiation monotherapy (RT) less definitive. We analyzed 109 consecutive patients who developed t-MNs after RT describe latencies, cytogenetic profile, mutation analyses, clinical outcomes. The most common abnormality was clonal in chromosome 5 and/or...

The academic graduation season of 2022 marked the first, though seemingly not last, in which some residents completed their training with every year dominated by COVID-19 pandemic.As recent residency graduates meeting these criteria, we are struck how little know about practicing medicine a nonpandemic world.Virtual visits, high hospital censuses, and widespread understaffing were norm throughout our training, replacing many typical learning experiences.These changes hindered residents'...
