This paper shows that DNMT3A-mutant blood stem cells, present but undetectable in young donors, can expand into clonal hematopoiesis decades after transplantation. The authors highlight that environmental pressures, not just new mutations, drive this process. Read here 👉https://bit.ly/3XLdF1m

#HemaSphere is heading to #ASH25 Are you interested to learn more? Looking to discuss your manuscript? Curious about who we are? Reach out - we can set a meeting time. Jessica will also be available at the #EHA booth (1482) at various times. See you in Orlando!
Explore the latest research lurking in our October issue… if you dare! 🎃👻🧟♀️http://bit.ly/4haMwh3
Looking forward to this exciting meeting and to represent @hemasphere-journal.bsky.social in this session!
We are excited to announce our new #NDLR2026 Meet-the-Editor session, with Editors-in-Chief, Prof Andrew Roberts, @bloodjournals.hematology.org and Prof @jancools.bsky.social, @hemasphere-journal.bsky.social who will share their invaluable insights on #publishing in high-impact #hematology journals.
Great mix of art & science at the Art Science Museum in Singapore.
In this study the authors show how cancer associated fibroblasts and their spatial architecture in the tumor microenvironment impact survival in patients with cHL. Read more about it here 👉https://bit.ly/4mdhPK6
Exciting to share the new impact factor of @hemasphere-journal.bsky.social, the #openaccess journal of the European Hematology Association (EHA). The 2024 Journal Impact Factor is 14.6 - ranking as number 5 of 99 hematology journals (Source: Journal Citations Reports, Clarivate).

Thank you EHA, for honoring me with the Education and Mentoring Award. Thank you Peter Marynen and Gary Gilliland for being such inspiring mentors to me! Thank you to all my trainees, all current and past members of my research group. #EHA2025 @hemasphere-journal.bsky.social
Heading to #EHA2025 in Milan in 1.5(ish) weeks? HemaSphere has 2 exciting sessions on the program! 📌Peer Review Workshop: Fri 13 June, 13:30 - 15:00 💡Learn + master the peer review role/process 📌HemaSphere Scientific Session: Sat 14 June, 15:45 - 16:45 💡Dive into 3 of our cutting-edge biology papers
This study examines the frequency of recurring gene mutations and their interplay with well-known biomarkers in female and male patients, between 18-80 years, with ref/rel DLBCL compared to patients with CR to identify biological risk factors associated with treatment response👉https://bit.ly/4ihynhR
If you are interested in learning about #PDX models in in vivo drug testing, take the time to listen to the following @hemasphere-journal.bsky.social podcast featuring Prof Richard Lock. 👇
Prof. Richard Lock featured in HemaSphere podcast discussing his internationally recognised program using PDX models in preclinical testing, to study leukaemia biology and test new treatments in a highly personalised way. ccia.support/RLpod
Happy to share our new insights in the variant mutations driving high hyperdiploid acute lymphoblastic #leukemia - always new discoveries when you go to the #single-cell level… @hemasphere-journal.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
Single‐cell DNA and surface protein characterization of high hyperdiploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia at diagnosis and during treatment
High hyperdiploid (HeH) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is the most prevalent subtype of childhood ALL. This leukemia is characterized by trisomies and tetrasomies of specific chromosomes...

This study quantified Bcl-2 family protein expression in newly diagnosed MM patients. High levels of Bad and Puma proteins were linked to longer OS. Bcl-2 protein ratios predicting venetoclax sensitivity distinguished patients with shorter progression times 👉https://bit.ly/4fUpV6c
On my way to Prague for their national hematology meeting, with my ‘retro’ EHA bag… this must be very old considering the logo…but still very useful 😊
📢 Authors evaluated the efficacy JPX-0700 and JPX-0750 as dual STAT3/5 inhibitors, reducing leukemic cell growth in AML/NKCL models. These compounds target STAT3/5 signaling, inducing cell death and growth arrest and exhibit synergistic effects w/ approved chemotherapeutics👉https://bit.ly/42oMtJp
2024 has been a successful year for HemaSphere Journal! 800+ manuscript submissions increasing impact in the field insightful graphical abstracts another podcast season ...and of course, excellent research! We extend a warm thank you to all authors, reviewers & readers ❤️
📖HemaSphere's December issue is now complete 👉https://bit.ly/HS_Dec2024 and as always, is 100% #OpenAccess. Please enjoy reading and feel free to share with your networks.
