Heterozygous somatic mutations affecting the spliceosome gene SF3B1 drive age-related clonal hematopoiesis, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and other neoplasms. To study their role in such disorders, we generated knock-in mice with hematopoietic-specific expression of Sf3b1-K700E, commonest type mutation MDS. Sf3b1K700E/+ animals had impaired erythropoiesis progressive anemia without ringed sideroblasts, as well reduced hematopoietic stem cell numbers host-repopulating fitness. understand...
Prognostic stratification is critical for making therapeutic decisions and maximizing survival of patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Advances in the genomics leukemia have identified several recurrent gene mutations whose prognostic impact being deciphered. We used HaloPlex target enrichment Illumina-based next generation sequencing to study 24 recurrently mutated genes 42 samples a normal karyotype. Read depth varied between within same sample, but was predictable highly consistent...
Advances in sequencing technologies are giving unprecedented insights into the spectrum of somatic mutations underlying acute myeloid leukaemia with a normal karyotype (AML–NK). It is clear that prognosis individual patients strongly influenced by combination their and many leukaemias composed multiple subclones, differential susceptibilities to treatment. Here, we describe method, employing targeted capture coupled next-generation tailored bioinformatic analysis, for simultaneous study 24...
Abstract ASTRACT: A simple and sensitive gas chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (GC/MS/MS) method is described for the detection of anabolic steroids, usually found in keratin matrix at very low concentrations. Hair samples from seven athletes who spontaneously reported their abuse a single case cocaine, were analyzed methyltestosterone, nandrolone, boldenone, fluoxymesterolone, cocaine its metabolite benzoylecgonine. Anabolic steroids determinate by digestion hair 1 m NaOH 15 min 95°C....
Background: Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is associated with increased risk cancers and inflammation-related diseases. The phenomenon becomes very common in oldest-old individuals, whom the implications CHIP are not well defined. Here we investigate relationships between pathologies people aged >80 years. Methods: We performed a mutational screening 1794 individuals enrolled two population-based studies (“Health_&_Anemia” “Monzino_80+”). Findings: mutations were...
