Specific F1 ATP synthase inhibition delivers transient mitochondrial stress for selective targeting of acute myeloid leukemia
Matthew T. Villaume, Haley Elizabeth Ramsey, Valeria Impedovo…·Michael Robert Savona
This study shows that inhibiting F1 ATP synthase with EB2023 causes transient mitochondrial stress in AML cells, enabling effective treatment without harming healthy tissues.

Mutation-specific impairment of TET2 and DNMT3A enzymatic activity predicts clonal hematopoiesis disease risk
Yash Pershad, Kun Zhao, Joseph C. Van Amburg…·Alexander G. Bick
The paper identifies mutation-specific impairments in TET2 and DNMT3A enzymatic activity as predictors of clonal hematopoiesis disease risk using methylation-based activity scores.

Detection of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential via genome or exome sequencing profoundly underestimates disease associations
Robert W. Corty, Yash Pershad, Jonathan Brett Heimlich…·Alexander G. Bick
The paper shows genome or exome sequencing underestimates CHIP-disease associations due to low sensitivity and positive predictive value, requiring deep sequencing for accurate results.

Implications of TP53 Allelic State for Genome Stability, Clinical Presentation and Outcomes in Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Elsa Bernard, Yasuhito Nannya, Robert Paul Hasserjian…·Elli Papaemmanuil
The paper examines TP53 allelic states in MDS patients, finding that bi-allelic targeting is linked to worse outcomes, while mono-allelic targeting does not differ from wild-type patients.
