PU.1 eviction at lymphocyte-specific chromatin domains mediates glucocorticoid response in acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Glucocorticoid resistance is partly due to epigenetic alterations, but the regulatory mechanisms driving these remain poorly understood. Here, a link between the activity of a lineage-specific transcription factor PU.1 and epigenetic modulators mediating the response to glucocorticoids is described in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Layered Ni-rich oxide cathodes are susceptible to challenges with surface reconstruction and strain propagation, limiting their cyclability. The authors propose a solution involving oriented attachment-driven reactions, utilizing Wadsley–Roth nanocrystals and layered oxide to induce an epitaxial entropy-assisted coating, effectively addressing these issues.

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Blockade of IDO-kynurenine-AhR metabolic circuitry abrogates IFN-γ-induced immunologic dormancy of tumor-repopulating cells

Tumour repopulating cells (TRC) are stem-like cells that can escape immune-mediated killing. Here, the authors show IFN-γ results in either dormancy or apoptosis of TRC depending on the activation of the IDO1 metabolic pathway, and that combining IFN-γ with IDO1 inhibitors results in enhanced tumour regression.
