➡️🗒️📌Summary of recent concepts
🔊IT IS ALL HAPPENING IN THE MITOCHONDRIA
👉📈🏹Increase potential of targeting the mitochondria
👉🦀Anti-cancer agents specifically targeting cancer cell mitochondria are referred to as 'mitocans'

➡️Metabolic adaptions of AML cells
AML is a 🦀cancer derived from the myeloid lineage of blood🩸cells, characterized by overproduction of malignant cells.

➡️Ph-like ALL / BCR-ABL1-like ALL
👉A provisional entity in the 2016 World Health Organization classification of acute leukemia 🩸🩸
👉Gene expression 🧬signature similar to Ph-positive ALL but lacks the BCR-ABL1 translocation

@NancyArthurPhD
➡️Originally defined by gene expression 🧬profiling in 2009 by 2 groups
👉Children's Oncology Group (COG) and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (referred to as Ph-like ALL) 👉Dutch Childhood Oncology Group (referred to as BCR-ABL1-like ALL) – DCOG/COALL

👉The differences in the approaches are outlined in the figure; more on the gene expression 🧬 signatures and diagnostic conundrums later!

➡️Caused by a mutation in the UBA1 gene 🧬 that encodes major E1 enzyme that initiates ubiquitylation
➡️Suggests postzygotic somatic mutation may be a more frequent cause of human disease👨
➡️Patients develop inflammatory symptoms🔥and hematological abnormalities🩸👇
