Abstract

Side population (SP) cells in cancers, including multiple myeloma, exhibit tumor-initiating characteristics. In the present study, we isolated SP cells from human myeloma cell lines and primary tumors to detect potential therapeutic targets specifically expressed in SP cells. We found that SP cells from myeloma cell lines (RPMI 8226, AMO1, KMS-12-BM, KMS-11) express CD138 and that non-SP cells include a CD138-negative population. Serial transplantation of SP and non-SP cells into NOD/Shi-scid IL-2 gamma nul mice revealed that clonogenic myeloma SP cells are highly tumorigenic and possess a capacity for self-renewal. Gene expression analysis showed that SP cells from five MM cell lines (RPMI 8226, AMO1, KMS-12-BM, KMS-11, JJN3) express genes involved in the cell cycle and mitosis (e. g., CCNB1, CDC25C, CDC2, BIRC5, CENPE, SKA1, AURKB, KIFs, TOP2A, ASPM), polycomb (e. g., EZH2, EPC1) and ubiquitin-proteasome (e. g., UBE2D3, UBE3C, PSMA5) more strongly than do non-SP cells. Moreover, CCNB1, AURKB, EZH2 and PSMA5 were also upregulated in the SPs from eight primary myeloma samples. On that basis, we used an aurora kinase inhibitor (VX-680) and a proteasome inhibitor (bortezomib) with RPMI 8226 and AMO1 cells to determine whether these agents could be used to selectively target the myeloma SP. We found that both these drugs reduced the SP fraction, though bortezomib did so more effectively than VX-680 due to its ability to reduce levels of both phospho-histone H3 (p-hist. H3) and EZH2; VX-680 reduced only p-hist. H3. This is the first report to show that certain oncogenes are specifically expressed in the myeloma SP, and that bortezomib effectively downregulates expression of their products. Our approach may be useful for screening new agents with which to target a cell population possessing strong tumor initiating potential in multiple myeloma.

Abstract

A 53-year-old woman presented at our hospital due to nasal bleeding and petechiae with profound thrombocytopenia (0.4×109/L). Her platelet count returned to the normal range immediately following a platelet transfusion. In this case, tea brewed from Taxus yunnanensis was the only suspected agent ingested prior to the onset of thrombocytopenia while all other etiologies for thrombocytopenia were excluded. A re-exposure test to Taxus yunnanensis resulted in the recurrence of acute thrombocytopenia. The association of thrombocytopenia with substances other than drugs has so far only been rarely described and to the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of thrombocytopenia caused by Taxus yunnanensis.

Abstract

After primary graft failure following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, some patients experience autologous recovery of hematopoiesis without salvage transplantation. However, clinicians occasionally encounter unusual chromosomal abnormalities in recipient cells, not related to the original underlying diseases. In this study, through a survey based on data from the nationwide registry at the Japan Society for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation, 42 patients were identified as having chromosomal abnormalities after autologous recovery. The complex chromosomal abnormalities were not consistent and randomly changed at each testing. Of the 42 patients, seven experienced disappearance of chromosome abnormalities without any treatment, and the probability was estimated as 17.4% (95% CI: 7.5–30.7%) at the 5-year observation. On the other hand, two patients developed hematologic malignancy at 1447 and 6202 days. Ten patients were alive without relapse or development of hematologic disorders, even though chromosomal abnormalities were continuously detected at a median of 3192 (103–4710) days. In conclusion, chromosomal abnormalities can persist for more than 10 years, and may eventually contribute to hematologic malignancy development in a small fraction of cases. Although oncogenic effects of the chromosomal abnormalities are still unclear, these findings may provide supporting evidence for late occurrence of secondary malignant neoplasms after cancer treatment.

Abstract

We conducted two parallel prospective, multicenter, phase II studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HLA-haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy-haploPBSCT) following myeloablative conditioning (MAC, n= 50) and reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC, n= 77). Event-free survival (EFS) at 1-year as for primary endpoint was 64% and 43% in the MAC and RIC groups, respectively. Neutrophil engraftment was achieved in 98% and 94% in the MAC and RIC groups, respectively. The incidences of grades II–IV and III–IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were 18% and 8% in the MAC group, and 14% and 5% in the RIC group, respectively. Those of all grade and moderate to severe chronic GVHD at 2-year were 36% and 20% in the MAC group, and 27% and 20% in the RIC group, respectively. Overall survival (OS), EFS, nonrelapse mortality, and relapse rate at 2-year were 68%, 54%, 10%, and 36% in the MAC group, and 44%, 35%, 20%, and 45% in the RIC group, respectively. Notably, 83% and 86% of patients who survived without relapse stopped immunosuppressant at 2-year in the MAC and RIC groups, respectively. Our results indicate that both MAC and RIC are valid options for PTCy-haploPBSCT for adults with hematological malignancies.

Abstract

The patient was a 21-year-old man who had been diagnosed with Crohn's disease and received infliximab and azathioprine six years earlier. He was admitted with fever and fatigue. Peripheral blood examination showed LDH 2,473 U/l and thrombocytopenia, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed hepatosplenomegaly. Bone marrow biopsy and liver biopsy showed CD4+CD56+TCRγδ＋CD8 - atypical cells, leading to a diagnosis of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL). The patient was refractory to CHOP and DA-EPOCH, and therefore received cord blood transplantation with myeloablative conditioning. CT showed reduced in hepatosplenomegaly and peripheral blood examination showed LDH 165 U/l and plt 180,000/µl, so the patient was discharged on day117. HSTCL is a tumor of immature γδT cells with a Vδ1 mutation in the spleen, and immunodeficiency has been implicated in its pathogenesis. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease treated with azathioprine are known to have an increased risk of lymphoproliferative disease. In this case, use of immunosuppressive drugs for Crohn's disease may have caused malignant transformation of γδ cells in the intestinal epithelium. Although the patient was refractory to chemotherapy, he was able to achieve remission with early cord blood transplantation and long-term survival is expected.

Abstract

Haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from her brother was performed on a 41-year-old lady with no prior history of pemphigoid to treat recurrent AML. On day 59 following transplantation, she experienced esophageal stenosis. During immunosuppressive therapy for graft vs. host disease, this condition was controlled with periodic esophageal dilatation (GVHD). Her esophageal stricture, which required periodic dilatation, grew worse after she stopped immunosuppressive therapy because of recurrent AML. The esophageal mucosa was easily hemorrhagic and desquamative. Histologic analysis revealed that the squamous cell layers had been divided. Indirect immunofluorescence was negative for IgG and positive for IgA on the epidermal layers, while direct immunofluorescence showed a linear deposition of IgG on the basement membrane zone. It was determined through immunoblotting utilizing recombinant protein of BP180 C-terminal domain that both IgG and IgA antibodies were present, supporting the diagnosis of mucous membrane pemphigoid with anti-BP180. After allogeneic transplantation, basal epidermal cell destruction by GVHD may result in autoimmune blistering disorders, which expose basement membrane proteins and antigen presentation. A similar mechanism could apply to our situation. For rare GVHD cases, a thorough histological diagnosis is required.

Abstract

A 64-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital to undergo allogeneic stem cell transplantation. She was diagnosed with polycythemia vera with a JAK2 V617F mutation 7 years ago. She was administered ruxolitinib for splenomegaly two years prior to admission but this was discontinued because of progressive pancytopenia. One months after cessation of ruxolitinib, she developed acute myeloid leukemia transformed from post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis. Although she achieved complete remission after induction therapy, 8-finger-breadth splenomegaly remained below the left costal margin. Ruxolitinib was re-administered following two courses of consolidation therapy. She underwent unrelated peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Ruxolitinib was administered until the day before transplantation, and the spleen was palpated in 4-finger breadth below costal arc. Neutrophil engraftment was achieved 13 days after transplantation. In allogeneic stem cell transplantation, splenomegaly is one of the risk factors for engraftment failure and/or therapy-related mortality. Hence, a smaller spleen size can theoretically improve the outcome after transplantation. The administration of ruxolitinib prior to transplantation may have contributed to engraftment with a non-invasive reduction in the size of the spleen.
