ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of IL3-IGH fusion gene-positive pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with hypereosinophilia as the first presentation.Methods:The clinical data of 1 pediatric IL3-IGH fusion gene-positive ALL patient with hypereosinophilia as the first presentation in January 2021 in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital was retrospectively analyzed and relevant literature was reviewed.Results:This 11-year-old male patient underwent bone marrow examination, and results showed that the proportion of eosinophils was increased; immunophenotyping disclosed that there were about 49.4% abnormal naive B lymphocytes in bone marrow; 43 leukemia fusion genes showed all negative; the whole transcriptome sequencing showed IL3-IGH fusion gene-positive. The patient was finally diagnosed as B-ALL with IL3-IGH fusion gene. According to the Chinese Children Cancer Group (CCCG)-ALL 2020 regimen, eosinophils returned to normal after induction therapy. Bone marrow examination on day 19 of induction showed that the proportion of promyelocytes was 0.005, the proportion of eosinophils was 0.05, and the minimal residual disease (MRD) was 23.02%. Bone marrow examination on day 46 of induction showed remission, and MRD was 0.18%. Consolidation chemotherapy used CAT (cyclophosphamide 1 g/m 2 once; cytarabine 50 mg/m 2, 12 h once, 7 days in total; mercaptopurine 40 mg/m 2, once per night, 7 days in total) regimen. Then the patient was added with lusotinib (75 mg 12 h once) orally and continued to receive high-dose methotrexate (5 g/m 2) regimen chemotherapy for 2 courses, the MRD was 0.20%. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) regimen was administered, followed by negative MRD. Conclusions:IL3-IGH fusion gene ALL is more frequently found in males, and more common in older children and young adults. It is prone to organ infiltration damage, and it has a high rate of induction failure and recurrence as well as poor prognosis.
ABSTRACT
To develop Senecavirus A (SVA) virus-like particles (VLPs), a recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pET28a-SVA-VP031 was constructed to co-express SVA structural proteins VP0, VP3 and VP1, according to the genomic sequence of the field isolate CH-FJ-2017 after the recombinant proteins were expressed in E .coli system, and purified by Ni+ ion chromatographic method. The SVA VLPs self-assemble with a high yield in vitro buffer. A typical VLPs with an average diameter of 25-30 nm which is similar to native virions by using TEM detection. Animals immunized by SVA VLPs shown that the VLPs induced high titers neutralizing antibodies in Guinea pigs. This study indicated that the VLPs produced with co-expressing SVA structural proteins VP0, VP3 and VP1 in prokaryotic system is a promising candidate and laid an important foundation for the development of a novel SVA VLPs vaccine.
