Where There's Smoke, There's Fire: Inflammation Drives MDS
Chronic inflammation has been implicated in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS); however, its role in disease progression is unclear.
Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS)
Immunomodulation With Pomalidomide at Early Lymphocyte Recovery After Induction Chemotherapy in Newly Diagnosed AML and High-Risk MDS
An immunosuppressive microenvironment promoting leukemia cell immune escape plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AML. Through its interaction with cereblon, a substrate receptor for the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, pomalidomide leads to selective ubiquitination of transcription factors Aiolos and Ikaros thereby promoting immune modulation.
