Germline Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism <i>GFI1-36N</i> Causes Alterations in Mitochondrial Metabolism and Leads to Increased ROS-Mediated DNA Damage in a Murine Model of Human Acu... by Jan Vorwerk, Longlong Liu, Theresa Helene Stadler, Daria Frank, Helal Mohammed Mohammed Ahmed, Pradeep Kumar Patnana, Maxim Kebenko, Eva Dazert, Bertram Opalka, Nikolas von Bubnoff, Cyrus Khandanpour

“…<b>Results</b>: Following the isolation of leukemic bone marrow cells, we were able to show that the <i>GFI1-36N</i> SNP in our model is associated with enhanced oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), increased ROS levels, and results in elevated γ-H2AX levels as a marker of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The use of free radical scavengers such as N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and α-tocopherol (αT) reduced ROS-induced DNA damage, particularly in <i>GFI1-36N</i> leukemic cells. …”

Evaluation of patient immunocompetence for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy using the psoas muscle index: a retrospective cohort study by Toshiaki Tsurui, Toshiaki Tsurui, Toshiaki Tsurui, Toshiaki Tsurui, Kazuyuki Hamada, Emiko Mura, Risako Suzuki, Nana Iriguchi, Tomoyuki Ishiguro, Yuya Hirasawa, Ryotaro Ohkuma, Masahiro Shimokawa, Hirotsugu Ariizumi, Yutaro Kubota, Atsushi Horiike, Satoshi Wada, Satoshi Wada, Kiyoshi Yoshimura, Kiyoshi Yoshimura, Mayumi Tsuji, Yuji Kiuchi, Yuji Kiuchi, Takuya Tsunoda

“…Logistic regression analysis showed that PMI was associated with the overall response (odds ratio [OR]: 1.52; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04–2.22; p = 0.030) and the risk of severe irAEs (OR: 1.72; 95% CI: 1.05–2.80; p = 0.031).ConclusionThese findings suggest that PMI is both an indicator of prognosis and a surrogate marker of immunocompetence in predicting the clinical response to ICI therapy.…”
