Abstract
There are few prospective studies on patients with post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (PET-MF) and post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (PPV-MF). Therefore, we conducted a nationwide longitudinal prospective survey to clarify the clinical characteristics of these diseases. A total of 197 PET-MF and 117 PPV-MF patients diagnosed between 2012 and 2021 were analyzed. The median age at diagnosis was 70.0 years for both diseases. The time from diagnosis of ET or PV to that of MF was 9.6 and 10.4 years, respectively, with no significant difference. Patients with PPV-MF had higher hemoglobin levels and white blood cell counts than those with PET-MF, whereas those with PET-MF had higher platelet counts than those with PPV-MF. Although splenomegaly was more frequent in patients with PPV-MF at diagnosis, there was no difference in the frequency of constitutional symptoms. Ruxolitinib was the most common treatment administered to 74.6% and 83.8% of patients with PET-MF and PPV-MF, respectively. Patients with PET-MF and PPV-MF had similar prognoses, with 3-year overall survival (OS) of 0.742 in PET-MF and 0.768 in PPV-MF patients. In both diseases, leukemic transformation was the leading cause of death, followed by infection. The 3-year OS for patients with PET/PPV-MF and primary MF diagnosed during the same period was 0.754 and 0.626, respectively, with no significant difference. This survey provides real-world clinical features and prognostic data on secondary myelofibrosis in the ruxolitinib era.

Abstract
Vitamin B6 (VB6) is essential to heme synthesis, and its deficiency can lead to anemia. VB6 deficiency anemia is typically microcytic, hypochromic, and sideroblastic. VB6 deficiency is a well-recognized complication of levodopa/carbidopa therapy, as metabolism of levodopa to dopamine is VB6-dependent, and carbidopa irreversibly forms bonds and deactivates VB6. We herein report a 75-year-old man with advanced Parkinson's disease who developed severe VB6 deficiency anemia due to levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel therapy. His anemia was promptly resolved with simple oral supplementation of pyridoxal phosphate hydrate. VB6 deficiency anemia can mimic myelodysplastic syndrome and thus is an important differential diagnosis for patients administered levodopa/carbidopa.

Abstract
Chemotherapy for hemodialysis (HD) patients is a challenging situation because HD patients are generally frail, and the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of most chemotherapeutics in HD patients are unknown. We report a classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patient successfully treated with 34 courses of brentuximab vedotin (BV) monotherapy, of which 30 courses were carried out during HD. Although grade 2 peripheral sensory neuropathy and one occasion of febrile neutropenia were observed, treatment was well-tolerated overall and effective. This is the first report of successful BV administration in a cHL patient on HD, and also the first to report efficacy and safety of extended courses of BV in an HD patient. Treatment options for cHL in the HD patient are limited, and extended courses of BV monotherapy may be an optimal treatment approach for some patients.

Abstract
TAFRO syndrome is a relatively new disease entity first reported in 2010. We report a case of TAFRO syndrome accommodated by abnormal exacerbation of moderately differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma. The pathophysiology of TAFRO syndrome is largely unknown, but because the disease often responds to immunosuppressive therapy and also because T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are reported to be drastically decreased in TAFRO syndrome, involvement of a dysregulated immune system can be speculated. Growing evidence points toward a pivotal role of Tfh cells in tumor immunity through supporting ectopic lymphoid structures, which are recruitment sites for cells directly engaging in antitumor activity such as CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells, NK cells, and macrophages. In fact, Tfh cells are reported to positively correlate with longer survival in human colorectal and breast cancer. Combined with our observations of hyperprogressive gastric cancer in the presented patient, an impaired tumor immunity is strongly indicated in TAFRO syndrome.

Abstract
Myelofibrosis (MF) can occur due to a wide variety of causes including malignant lymphoma. We report a case of splenic marginal zone lymphoma complicated by MF mimicking primary myelofibrosis (PMF). The JAK2, CALR and MPL mutations are detected in more than 90% of PMF cases, and when detected, the diagnosis of PMF is usually straight forward. Mutational analysis should be done in all cases of MF, and in triple-negative cases, an exhaustive investigation of other causes of MF should be carried out before a diagnosis of triple-negative PMF is rendered.

Abstract
Vitamin B6 (VB6) deficiency contributes to oncogenesis and tumor progression in certain cancers, and is prevalent in cancer patients in general. VB6 is also an essential element of heme synthesis, and deficiency can lead to anemia. Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and secondary myelofibrosis (sMF) are myeloproliferative neoplasms often presenting with anemia along with other cytopenias. We performed a prospective study to determine whether PMF and sMF patients suffer from VB6 deficiency, and whether VB6-deficient patients show improvement of anemias with VB6 supplementation. Twelve PMF patients and 11 sMF patients were analyzed. A total of 16 of 23 patients (69.6%) were found to have VB6 deficiency, but VB6 supplementation with pyridoxal phosphate hydrate did not elevate hemoglobin levels in deficient patients. None of the patients presented with vitamin B12, iron, or copper deficiencies. Four patients showed serum folate levels below the lower limit of normal and eight patients showed serum zinc levels below the lower limit of normal; however, these deficiencies were marginal and unlikely to contribute to anemia. Compared to VB6-sufficient patients, VB6-deficient patients showed significantly lower serum folate levels and higher serum copper levels. Studies elucidating the relationship of VB6 deficiency and etiology of PMF/sMF are warranted.

Abstract
Pregnancy with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) poses a high risk of thrombosis, maternal death, miscarriage, and premature infants. Eculizumab lowers complications for pregnancy with PNH. A proposed protocol for the management of pregnancy in women with PNH by The National Research Group on Idiopathic Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome (the Japanese Guideline) recommends patients to start eculizumab at an early stage of pregnancy if they have not been treated with eculizumab or continue eculizumab during pregnancy. A 31-year-old female with PNH who was transfusion-independent but had occasional hemolysis was treated with eculizumab after a missed abortion and soon conceived. During pregnancy, the patient had neither hemolysis nor thrombosis and gave birth to a healthy child without using heparin. Heparin was initiated soon after delivery and continued for six weeks because of the known high postpartum risk of thrombosis. No postpartum complications were observed. PNH is a rare disease with fewer cases of pregnancy reported. Hence, it is essential to accumulate cases of PNH with pregnancy to establish the validity of the Japanese Guideline.

Abstract
Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is commonly associated with anemia. IMiD® immunomodulatory drugs including thalidomide and lenalidomide have been shown to be effective in improving anemia associated with PMF. However, because of adverse events, their use has been restricted. Herein we report the case of a 67-year-old male patient with transfusion-dependent PMF treated with the immunomodulatory drug pomalidomide in a clinical trial. Significant improvements in anemia and thrombocytopenia were observed with pomalidomide, and the patient recovered from transfusion dependence for 8 months. Although phase 3 trial failed to show the superiority of pomalidomide over placebo, pomalidomide may have some benefit in selected patients with transfusion-dependent PMF.

Abstract
AIMS Indolent T-lymphoblastic proliferation (iT-LBP) is a non-clonal benign condition showing extrathymic proliferation of T-lymphoblasts positive for CD3, CD4, CD8, and TdT. Isolated iT-LBP has been observed, but the majority of iT-LBPs have been seen in conjunction with other disorders, including Castleman disease, hepatocellular carcinoma, follicular dendritic cell tumours, angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, myasthenia gravis, and acinic cell carcinoma (ACC). The clinical course of iT-LBP is indolent, and no therapy is usually required. A major concern is misdiagnosis as T-lymphoblastic lymphoma, and a correct diagnosis of iT-LBP often requires not only pathological analysis but also careful monitoring of the clinical course. The aim of this study was to broaden the knowledge of pathologists and physicians concerning this as yet not well-recognised entity. METHODS AND RESULTS We report a case of iT-LBP concomitant with ACC, along with a literature review of all 14 cases of iT-LBP reported to date. CONCLUSIONS iT-LBP should always be considered as a differential diagnosis of T-lymphoblastic lymphoma, as the two disorders show extremely similar traits.

Abstract
Cardiac amyloid light-chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) is a rare disease with a very poor prognosis, associated with plasma cell dyscrasias such as monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and multiple myeloma. Though bortezomib-containing regimens have achieved high hematologic response rates, there are still few reports describing the outcomes of Japanese patients. Six patients with severe cardiac AL amyloidosis were treated with bortezomib-containing regimens. Involved free light chain (iFLC) decreased immediately in most of these cases. However, the condition of heart failure and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) worsened in the early phase of this treatment and then improved several months later. At 29 months, the median duration of follow-up (2-47months), all patients remain alive except one who died of sudden cardiac arrest. Bortezomib-containing regimens are considered to be among the effective treatments for severe cardiac AL amyloidosis.

Abstract
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorder that presents with hemolytic anemia, thrombosis, and bone marrow failure. Stressors such as infection and pregnancy have been known to exacerbate hemolysis in PNH patients. Surgery can also trigger prominent complement activation and is an important risk factor for hemolysis. Furthermore, the postoperative thrombosis risk is high. Eculizumab, which is a humanized monoclonal antibody against C5, suppresses hemolysis and prevents thrombosis, and thus improves quality of life for PNH patients. However, few reports have focused on eculizumab-treated PNH patients undergoing surgery. We report a 79-year-old PNH patient receiving eculizumab treatment who underwent three consecutive orthopedic surgeries requiring general anesthesia. Perioperative management was carried out routinely, as in non-PNH patients, and no postoperative complications developed. Surgery was formerly considered to be a high risk event for PNH patients, but this case raises the possibility that even elderly PNH patients may undergo surgery safely when maintained on eculizumab treatment.

Abstract
Detection of the JAK2V617F mutation is essential for diagnosing patients with classical myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). However, detection of the low-frequency JAK2V617F mutation is a challenging task due to the necessity of discriminating between true-positive and false-positive results. Here, we have developed a highly sensitive and accurate assay for the detection of JAK2V617F and named it melting curve analysis after T allele enrichment (MelcaTle). MelcaTle comprises three steps: 1) two cycles of JAK2V617F allele enrichment by PCR amplification followed by BsaXI digestion, 2) selective amplification of the JAK2V617F allele in the presence of a bridged nucleic acid (BNA) probe, and 3) a melting curve assay using a BODIPY-FL-labeled oligonucleotide. Using this assay, we successfully detected nearly a single copy of the JAK2V617F allele, without false-positive signals, using 10 ng of genomic DNA standard. Furthermore, MelcaTle showed no positive signals in 90 assays screening healthy individuals for JAK2V617F. When applying MelcaTle to 27 patients who were initially classified as JAK2V617F-positive on the basis of allele-specific PCR analysis and were thus suspected as having MPNs, we found that two of the patients were actually JAK2V617F-negative. A more careful clinical data analysis revealed that these two patients had developed transient erythrocytosis of unknown etiology but not polycythemia vera, a subtype of MPNs. These findings indicate that the newly developed MelcaTle assay should markedly improve the diagnosis of JAK2V617F-positive MPNs.

Abstract
Hairy cell leukemia typically presents with pancytopenia and often mimics aplastic anemia. Making an accurate diagnosis is crucial, as treatment with the purine analogues cladribine and pentostatin brings about durable complete remission in the majority of patients. Surface kappa and lambda flow cytometric analyses of peripheral blood or bone marrow are a powerful screening tool, although routine gating of the entire lymphocyte region may fail to show light chain restriction due to a low tumor burden. We herein demonstrate that accurate subgating of the large lymphocyte region is essential and recommend the application of this method in all cases of pancytopenia of unknown etiology.

Abstract
An 83-year-old woman who complained of dizziness and nausea visited our hospital. An electrocardiogram showed ST-segment elevation in multiple leads and an echocardiogram showed severe hypokinesis of the anteroseptal wall of the left ventricle. However, emergency coronary angiography showed no stenotic lesions in any coronary arteries. A laboratory examination showed thrombocytopenia, renal dysfunction, and hemolysis. We therefore diagnosed the patient with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). While we were preparing to initiate plasma exchange therapy, she suddenly developed cardiopulmonary arrest. A postmortem examination revealed microthrombi in the small vessels of the myocardium. We herein report a case of ischemic cardiomyopathy with a rapid progression from TTP.

Abstract
Sirtuins, NAD-dependent protein deacetylases, play important roles in cellular functions such as metabolism and differentiation. Whether sirtuins function in tumorigenesis is still controversial, but sirtuins are aberrantly expressed in tumors, which may keep cancerous cells undifferentiated. Therefore, we investigated whether the inhibition of sirtuin family proteins induces cellular differentiation in leukemic cells. The sirtuin inhibitors tenovin-6 and BML-266 induce granulocytic differentiation in the acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cell line NB4. This differentiation is likely caused by an inhibition of SIRT2 deacetylase activity, judging from the accumulation of acetylated α-tubulin, a major SIRT2 substrate. Unlike the clinically used differentiation inducer all-trans retinoic acid, tenovin-6 shows limited effects on promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor α (PML-RAR-α) stability and promyelocytic leukemia nuclear body formation in NB4 cells, suggesting that tenovin-6 does not directly target PML-RAR-α activity. In agreement with this, tenovin-6 induces cellular differentiation in the non-APL cell line HL-60, where PML-RAR-α does not exist. Knocking down SIRT2 by shRNA induces granulocytic differentiation in NB4 cells, which demonstrates that the inhibition of SIRT2 activity is sufficient to induce cell differentiation in NB4 cells. The overexpression of SIRT2 in NB4 cells decreases the level of granulocytic differentiation induced by tenovin-6, which indicates that tenovin-6 induces granulocytic differentiation by inhibiting SIRT2 activity. Taken together, our data suggest that targeting SIRT2 is a viable strategy to induce leukemic cell differentiation.

Abstract
We report a 44-year-old man with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) presenting with fever and lymphadenopathy. Induction chemotherapy was initialed according to the JALSG ALL202 protocol, and L-asparaginase (L-asp) was given on days 20, 22, and 24 of therapy. Abrupt elevations of liver transaminase and bilirubin levels were observed on day 26. On day 30, coagulopathy and hepatic encephalopathy appeared. He was diagnosed with fulminant hepatitis and plasma exchange was performed, but he died on day 32, possibly due to L-asp-induced hepatitis. The common side effects of L-asp are hypersensitivity, ammonemia, coagulopathy, pancreatitis, convulsions, anaphylaxis, hepatotoxicity, and thrombosis. Although rare, reports of deaths due to hepatic failure during treatment with L-asp exist. L-asp is currently used for treatment of a wide range of hematological malignancies such as ALL and NK/T-cell lymphoma. A retrospective analysis of patients treated with L-asp should be carried out to elucidate the incidence and risk factors of liver dysfunction and fulminant hepatitis during L-asp treatment.

Abstract
Nasal natural killer (NK)-cell lymphoma was resistant to various antitumor agents. Although high expression of p-glycoprotein has been reported, other molecular mechanism of the chemo-resistance is largely unknown. Activation of STAT3 and expression of major apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2, Bcl-x, and Mcl-1 were analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Effects of STAT3 inhibitor AG490 on NK-YS cell line were analyzed by Western blotting and flow cytometric apoptosis assay. STAT3 was activated in six of the nine nasal NK-cell lymphomas (67%). In contrast, STAT3 activation was detected in 35% of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and in 10% of follicular lymphoma (FL). Frequent activation of STAT3 was significantly correlated with Mcl-1 expression in nasal NK-cell lymphoma, i.e., Mcl-1 was positive in five of six STAT3-active cases and negative in all three STAT3-inactive ones. In DLBCL, not only six out of seven STAT3-active cases (86%) but also eight out of thirteen STAT3-inactive cases (62%) were positive for Mcl-1 expression. Latent membrane protein-1 was positive in four nasal NK-cell lymphomas, among which three cases showed intermediate STAT3 activation. Inhibition of STAT3 activation by JAK inhibitor AG490 decreased Mcl-1 expression and induced apoptosis in STAT3-active NK-YS cells. Serum starvation rather increased the Mcl-1 level in NK-YS cells, and this effect was also canceled by AG490. These results suggest that activation of STAT3-Mcl-1 axis may play a role in the chemotherapy resistance of nasal NK-cell lymphoma. The pathway may be one of the future therapeutic targets of this intractable disease.

Abstract
Valacyclovir (VACV) is used increasingly to treat herpes zoster, although neuropsychiatric symptoms [VACV neurotoxicity (VAN) or acyclovir neurotoxicity], may accompany use of this drug. To promote awareness of this rare condition, we describe here two clinical cases of VAN we previously reported and review 20 cases from the literature. In all cases, chronic or acute renal failure preceded VAN. The symptoms of VAN varied, but disturbances of consciousness and hallucination occurred most commonly. When acute renal failure was due to the drug, recovery from both the disturbance of consciousness and renal failure followed within several days after discontinuation of VACV. Early recognition and diagnosis will ensure effective treatment of VAN.

Abstract
Electron transmission through individual 1,4-benzenedithiol molecules bridging between two gold electrodes (Au/BDT/Au junctions) has been studied by measuring the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics. Measurements were made at room temperature on three junction states of conductance 0.005G(0), 0.01G(0), and 0.1G(0), respectively, where G(0) is the quantum unit of conductance. All I-V curves are linear around zero bias and nonlinearly increase upward for biases above approximately 0.2 V. Absence of plateaus in the observed I-V characteristics up to +/- 1 V indicates that the electron transmission spectrum of Au/BDT/Au has no peaks within +/- 0.5 eV from the Fermi level.

Abstract
Checkpoint protein Chk1 has been identified as an Hsp90 client. Treatment with 100 nM geldanamycin (GM) for 24 h markedly reduced the Chk1 amount in Jurkat and ML-1 leukemia cell lines. Because Chk1 plays a central role in G2 checkpoint, we added GM to G2-arrested Jurkat and HL-60 cells pretreated with 50 nM doxorubicin for 24 h. GM slowly released both cell lines from doxorubicin-induced G2 arrest into G1 phase. GM also abrogated ICRF-193-induced decatenation G2 checkpoint in Jurkat and HL-60 cells. Western blot analysis showed that addition of GM attenuates doxorubicin- and ICRF-193-induced Chk1 phosphorylation at Ser345. GM, however, failed to abrogate G2 arrest in p53-positive ML-1 cells maybe due to the p21 induction. GM released HeLa cells from doxorubicin-induced G2 arrest but trapped them at M phase. Flow cytometric analysis showed that addition of GM converted doxorubicin-induced necrosis into apoptosis in Jurkat cells. Colony assay indicated that although GM has a weak cytotoxic effect as a single agent, it dramatically intensifies the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin and ICRF-193 in Jurkat and HL-60 cells. These results suggest that abrogation of G2 checkpoint by GM may play a central role in sensitizing p53-negative tumor cells to DNA-damaging and decatenation-inhibiting agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Phosphodiesterase-III inhibitors and dobutamine effectively improve cardiac function in patients with cardiac failure, but they are limited by possible hypotensive effects. We tested the hypothesis that dopamine contributes to stabilizing milrinone-induced haemodynamic changes. METHODS Nine patients undergoing major surgery were anaesthetized using nitrous oxide and oxygen supplemented with isoflurane 1-2%. After baseline haemodynamics were recorded, milrinone (25 or 50 microg kg(-1)) was administered over 10min, followed by a continuous infusion (0.5 microg kg(-1) min(-1). The second set of haemodynamic values was measured 50 min after beginning the continuous infusion of milrinone. Dopamine (4 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) was then administered with milrinone. RESULTS Milrinone significantly increased the heart rate from 81 +/- 8 to 102 +/- 16beats min(-1), but it decreased the mean arterial pressure from 83 +/- 10 to 66 +/- 10 mmHg and systemic vascular resistance (P < 0.05 for each). The pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, cardiac index and pulmonary vascular resistance did not change significantly. The addition of dopamine to the milrinone infusion significantly decreased the heart rate (94 +/- 12 beats min(-1)) and increased the mean arterial pressure (82 +/- 11 mmHg). Dopamine and milrinone, but not milrinone alone, significantly increased the cardiac index and the rate-pressure product. CONCLUSIONS The combination regimen of milrinone and dopamine improved cardiac function, and changes in heart rate and mean arterial pressure induced by milrinone were attenuated by dopamine. The results suggest that a combination regimen of milrinone and dopamine rather than milrinone alone should be used to maintain arterial pressure.
