by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi Venetoclax resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia is characterized by increased mitochondrial activity and can be overcome by co-targeting oxidative phosphorylation. Enzenmüller et al. explore why B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) cells sometimes resist the BCL-2 inhibitor…
by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi This study by Hirosawa et al. investigates the effect of the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB202190 on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. While p38 signaling is typically associated with stress responses and growth inhibition, treatment of AML cell…
by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi This article by Sosa et al. explores the biology of disseminated tumor cells (DTCs), which are central to cancer relapses and metastasis. DTCs can spread early during tumor development—even from non-invasive lesions—and persist in distant organs such…
by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive blood cancer marked by the rapid expansion of immature myeloblasts. Despite progress in targeted therapies, resistance remains a major obstacle, especially in patients with mutations that impact the MAPK and…
