Abstract
BACKGROUND Valoctocogene roxaparvovec transfers a human factor VIII (FVIII) coding sequence into hepatocytes of people with severe hemophilia A to provide bleeding protection. OBJECTIVE Present 3-year efficacy and safety in the multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase 3 GENEr8-1 trial. METHODS GENEr8-1 enrolled 134 adult males with severe hemophilia A who were receiving FVIII prophylaxis. Efficacy endpoints included annualized bleeding rate (ABR), annualized FVIII utilization (AFU), FVIII activity (chromogenic substrate assay; imputed as 1 IU/dL at baseline and 0 IU/dL after discontinuation), and the Haemophilia-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adults (Haemo-QOL-A). Safety was assessed by adverse events (AEs). RESULTS At week 156, 131/134 participants remained on study; overall, 17/134 resumed prophylaxis. Mean (standard deviation [SD]) treated ABR decreased from 4.8 (6.5) bleeds/year at baseline to 0.8 (SD, 2.3; P <0.0001) bleeds/year during post-prophylaxis (prophylaxis cessation to last follow-up) and 0.97 (SD, 3.48) bleeds/year during year 3. AFU decreased 96.8% from baseline post-prophylaxis and 94.2% during year 3. At week 156, mean and median FVIII activity were 18.4 (SD, 30.8) and 8.3 IU/dL, respectively. FVIII activity decrease was lower between years 2‒3 than 1‒2. At the end of year 3, clinically meaningful improvements in Haemo-QOL-A Total Score were observed (mean change from baseline, 6.6; 95% confidence interval, 4.24‒8.87; P <0.0001). Mild alanine aminotransferase elevations remained the most common AE during year 3 (23.7% of participants). A serious AE of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia was considered unrelated to treatment. CONCLUSIONS Hemostatic efficacy was maintained, and safety remained unchanged from previous years.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Patients with hemophilia A require exogenous factor VIII (FVIII) or nonfactor hemostatic agents to prevent spontaneous bleeding events. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-based gene therapy is under clinical investigation to enable endogenous FVIII production. Giroctocogene fitelparvovec is a recombinant AAV serotype 6 vector containing the coding sequence for the B-domain-deleted human F8 gene. In the ongoing phase 1/2, dose-ranging Alta study, 4 sequential cohorts of male participants with severe hemophilia A received a single IV dose of giroctocogene fitelparvovec. The primary end points are safety and changes in circulating FVIII activity. Interim results up to 214 weeks after treatment for all participants are presented. Eleven participants were dosed. Increases in alanine and aspartate aminotransferases were the most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs), which resolved with corticosteroid administration. Two treatment-related serious AEs (hypotension and pyrexia) were reported in 1 participant within 6 hours of infusion and resolved within 24 hours after infusion. At the highest dose level (3 × 1013 vg/kg; n = 5), the mean circulating FVIII activity level at week 52 was 42.6% (range, 7.8%-122.3%), and at week 104 it was 25.4% (range, 0.9%-71.6%) based on a chromogenic assay. No liver masses, thrombotic events, or confirmed inhibitors were detected in any participant. These interim 104-week data suggest that giroctocogene fitelparvovec is generally well tolerated with appropriate clinical management and has the potential to provide clinically meaningful FVIII activity levels, as indicated by the low rate of bleeding events in the highest dose cohort. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03061201.

Abstract
Genetic predisposition to hematologic malignancies has historically been addressed utilizing patients recruited from clinical trials and pedigrees constructed at major treatment centers. Such efforts leave unexplored the genetic basis of variations in risk by race/ethnic group shown in population-based surveillance data where cancer registration, compulsory by law, delivers universal enrollment. To address this, we performed exome sequencing on DNA isolated from newborn bloodspots derived from sibling pairs with early-onset cancers across California in which at least one of the siblings developed a hematologic cancer, using unbiased recruitment from the full state population. We identified pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) variants among 1172 selected cancer genes that were private or present at low allele frequencies in reference populations. Within 64 subjects from 32 families, we found 9 LP variants shared between siblings, and an additional 7 such variants in singleton children (not shared with their sibling). In eight of the shared cases, the ancestral origin of the local haplotype that carries P/LP variants matched the dominant global ancestry of study participant families. This was the case for Latino sibling pairs on FLG and CBLB, non-Latino White sibling pairs in TP53 and NOD2, and a shared GATA2 variant for a non-Latino Black sibling pair. A new inherited mutation in HABP2 was identified in a sibling pair, one with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and the other with neuroblastoma. Overall, the profile of P/LP germline variants across ancestral/ethnic groups suggests that rare alleles contributing to hematologic diseases originate within their race/ethnic origin parental populations, demonstrating the value of this discovery process in diverse, population-based registries.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gene therapy is now a reality for individuals with haemophilia, yet little is known regarding the quality-of-life impact of factor correction. As few data exist, and recognizing the analogy to liver transplantation (OLTX), we identified OLTX+ and OLTX- men in the ATHNdataset to compare post-OLTX factor VIII and IX on quality of life (QoL) by Haem-A-QoL and PROMIS-29. METHODS OLTX- were matched to OLTX+ by age, race, and haemophilia type and severity. Deidentified demographic data, including post-transplant factor levels, genotype and target joint disease were analysed by descriptive statistics. Haem-A-Qol and PROMIS-29 were compared in OLTX+ and OLTX- by student's t-test and univariate regression models. RESULTS Of 86 people with haemophilia A (HA) or haemophilia B (HB) cared for at 10 haemophilia treatment centers (HTCs), 21 (24.4%) OLTX+ and 65 (75.6%) OLTX- were identified. OLTX+ and OLTX- had a similar frequency of target joint disease (p = .806), HA genotypes, null versus non-null (p = .696), and HIV infection (p = .316). At a median 9.2 years post-OLTX, median FVIII, .63 IU/mL [IQR 0.52-0.97] and FIX, .91 IU/mL [IQR .63-1.32], Haem-A-QoL, PROMIS-29, and HOT scores were comparable. Severe HA/HB had lower post-OLTX 'dealing with haemophilia' scores (p = .022) and higher 'sports and leisure' (p = .010) and 'view of yourself' scores (p = .024) than OLTX+ non-severe participants. Non-caucasian OLTX+ had significantly lower scores in sports and leisure (p = .042), future expectations (p = .021) and total score (p = .010). CONCLUSION Nine years after OLTX, QoL is comparable to OLTX-, but significantly better in OLTX+ with severe than non-severe disease and in caucasians than non-caucasians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe hemophilia A (HA) negatively impacts health-related quality of life (HRQOL). OBJECTIVES We aimed to analyze HRQOL in adult men with severe HA without inhibitors after valoctocogene roxaparvovec gene transfer in the phase 3 trial GENEr8-1. METHODS Participant-reported outcomes were the hemophilia-specific quality of life questionnaire for adults (Haemo-QOL-A), the EQ-5D-5L instrument, the Hemophilia Activities List (HAL), and the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Hemophilia Specific (WPAI+CIQ:HS). Participants completed the questionnaires at baseline and through 104 weeks postinfusion with 6 × 1013 vg/kg of valoctocogene roxaparvovec. Scores were analyzed per participant characteristics and outcomes. RESULTS For 132 HIV-negative participants, mean change from baseline in Haemo-QOL-A Total Score met the anchor-based clinically important difference (CID: 5.5) by week 12; the mean (SD) increase was 7.0 (12.6) at week 104. At week 104, improvement in Consequences of Bleeding, Treatment Concern, Worry, and Role Functioning domain scores exceeded the CID (6). EQ-5D-5L Utility Index scores improved above the CID at week 52, but not at week 104. EQ-5D-5L visual analog scale and HAL scores increased from baseline to week 104. Participants reported less activity and work impairment at week 104 than baseline. Participants with problem joints had lower mean baseline Haemo-QOL-A Total and domain scores than those without them, but improved over 104 weeks, except for 11 participants with ≥3 problem joints. Participants with 0 bleeds during the baseline prophylaxis period reported Haemo-QOL-A score improvements above the CID, including in the Consequences of Bleeding domain. CONCLUSION Valoctocogene roxaparvovec provided clinically meaningful HRQOL improvement for men with severe HA.

Abstract
Safely expanding indications for cellular therapies has been challenging given a lack of highly cancer-specific surface markers. Here we explore the hypothesis that tumor cells express cancer-specific surface protein conformations that are invisible to standard target discovery pipelines evaluating gene or protein expression, and these conformations can be identified and immunotherapeutically targeted. We term this strategy integrating cross-linking mass spectrometry with glycoprotein surface capture 'structural surfaceomics'. As a proof of principle, we apply this technology to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a hematologic malignancy with dismal outcomes and no known optimal immunotherapy target. We identify the activated conformation of integrin β2 as a structurally defined, widely expressed AML-specific target. We develop and characterize recombinant antibodies to this protein conformation and show that chimeric antigen receptor T cells eliminate AML cells and patient-derived xenografts without notable toxicity toward normal hematopoietic cells. Our findings validate an AML conformation-specific target antigen and demonstrate a tool kit for applying these strategies more broadly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heavy menstrual bleeding occurs in 80% of women with von Willebrand disease and is associated with iron deficiency and poor response to current therapies. International guidelines indicate low certainty regarding effectiveness of hormonal therapy and tranexamic acid. Although von Willebrand factor (VWF) concentrate is approved for bleeds, no prospective trials guide its use in heavy menstrual bleeding. We aimed to compare recombinant VWF with tranexamic acid for reducing heavy menstrual bleeding in patients with von Willebrand disease. METHODS VWDMin, a phase 3, open-label, randomised crossover trial, was done in 13 haemophilia treatment centres in the USA. Female patients aged 13-45 years with mild or moderate von Willebrand disease, defined as VWF ristocetin cofactor less than 0·50 IU/mL, and heavy menstrual bleeding, defined as a pictorial blood assessment chart (PBAC) score more than 100 in one of the past two cycles were eligible for enrolment. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to two consecutive cycles each of intravenous recombinant VWF, 40 IU/kg over 5-10 min on day 1, and oral tranexamic acid 1300 mg three times daily on days 1-5, the order determined by randomisation. The primary outcome was a 40-point reduction in PBAC score by day 5 after two cycles of treatment. Efficacy and safety were analysed in all patients with any post-baseline PBAC scores. The trial was stopped early due to slow recruitment on Feb 15, 2022, by a data safety monitoring board request, and was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02606045. FINDINGS Between Feb 12, 2019, and Nov 16, 2021, 39 patients were enrolled, 36 of whom completed the trial (17 received recombinant VWF then tranexamic acid and 19 received tranexamic acid then recombinant VWF). At the time of this unplanned interim analysis (data cutoff Jan 27, 2022), median follow-up was 23·97 weeks (IQR 21·81-28·14). The primary endpoint was not met, neither treatment corrected PBAC score to the normal range. Median PBAC score was significantly lower after two cycles with tranexamic acid than with recombinant VWF (146 [95% CI 117-199] vs 213 [152-298]; adjusted mean treatment difference 46 [95% CI 2-90]; p=0·039). There were no serious adverse events or treatment-related deaths and no grade 3-4 adverse events. The most common grade 1-2 adverse events were mucosal bleeding (four [6%] patients during tranexamic acid treatment vs zero during recombinant VWF treatment) and other bleeding (four [6%] vs two [3%]). INTERPRETATION These interim data suggest that recombinant VWF is not superior to tranexamic acid in reducing heavy menstrual bleeding in patients with mild or moderate von Willebrand disease. These findings support discussion of treatment options for heavy menstrual bleeding with patients based on their preferences and lived experience.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the incidence of and risk factors for symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) after hip arthroscopy (HA) and thromboprophylaxis prescription utilization for this procedure. METHODS The PearlDiver Mariner database was queried using Current Procedural Terminology codes to identify adult patients (aged ≥ 18 years) who underwent HA between 2010 and 2020. Patient demographic information, including age, oral contraceptive use, and medical comorbidities, as well as perioperative thromboprophylaxis utilization, was recorded using International Classification of Diseases codes and National Drug Codes. The incidence of postoperative VTE within 90 days was determined. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify predictors of perioperative thromboprophylaxis utilization and risk factors for VTE. RESULTS The queried records identified 60,181 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of these patients, 367 (0.6%) experienced VTE, including deep venous thrombosis (0.5%) and/or pulmonary embolism (0.2%). Approximately 2.1% of patients used thromboprophylaxis, including aspirin (1.1%), low-molecular-weight heparin (0.9%), and oral factor Xa inhibitors (0.1%). Oral contraceptive pill use (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.34-3.46), obesity (aOR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.05-1.79), and a history of malignancy (aOR, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.12-2.54) were associated with increased odds of experiencing VTE. Perioperative thromboprophylaxis (aOR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.19-1.39) was not significantly associated with decreased odds of experiencing VTE. However, obesity (aOR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.00-1.38) and hypertension (aOR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.02-1.36) were associated with increased odds of thromboprophylaxis prescription utilization. CONCLUSIONS Although the overall risk of symptomatic VTE after HA remains low, oral contraceptive use, obesity, and a history of malignancy are associated with increased odds of thromboembolic events within 90 days. Routine thromboprophylaxis after HA may not be indicated in all patients but can be considered based on patient-specific risk factors. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective prognostic comparative trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Valoctocogene roxaparvovec delivers a B-domain-deleted factor VIII coding sequence with an adeno-associated virus vector to prevent bleeding in persons with severe hemophilia A. The findings of a phase 3 study of the efficacy and safety of valoctocogene roxaparvovec therapy evaluated after 52 weeks in men with severe hemophilia A have been published previously. METHODS We conducted an open-label, single-group, multicenter, phase 3 trial in which 134 men with severe hemophilia A who were receiving factor VIII prophylaxis received a single infusion of 6×1013 vector genomes of valoctocogene roxaparvovec per kilogram of body weight. The primary end point was the change from baseline in the annualized rate of treated bleeding events at week 104 after receipt of the infusion. The pharmacokinetics of valoctocogene roxaparvovec were modeled to estimate the bleeding risk relative to the activity of transgene-derived factor VIII. RESULTS At week 104, a total of 132 participants, including 112 with data that were prospectively collected at baseline, remained in the study. The mean annualized treated bleeding rate decreased by 84.5% from baseline (P<0.001) among the participants. From week 76 onward, the trajectory of the transgene-derived factor VIII activity showed first-order elimination kinetics; the model-estimated typical half-life of the transgene-derived factor VIII production system was 123 weeks (95% confidence interval, 84 to 232). The risk of joint bleeding was estimated among the trial participants; at a transgene-derived factor VIII level of 5 IU per deciliter measured with chromogenic assay, we expected that participants would have 1.0 episode of joint bleeding per year. At 2 years postinfusion, no new safety signals had emerged and no new serious adverse events related to treatment had occurred. CONCLUSIONS The study data show the durability of factor VIII activity and bleeding reduction and the safety profile of valoctocogene roxaparvovec at least 2 years after the gene transfer. Models of the risk of joint bleeding suggest that the relationship between transgene-derived factor VIII activity and bleeding episodes is similar to that reported with the use of epidemiologic data for persons with mild-to-moderate hemophilia A.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The appearance of bite cells associated with methemoglobinemia can be caused by oxidizing drugs such as dapsone in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency or high drug serum levels. Bite cells are often pathognomonic for oxidant injury in patients with G6PD deficiency and suggest active hemolysis. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of a woman with no prior history of G6PD deficiency who presented with anemia, methemoglobinemia and bite cells on peripheral blood smear after dapsone therapy for new onset idiopathic urticaria. Laboratory tests for G6PD, blood count and liver function were within normal limits prior to initiation of therapy. During the patient's hospital course, moderate methemoglobinemia and anemia were identified despite mildly increased serum G6PD level. These pathologies were reversed upon stopping dapsone therapy. CONCLUSION This case highlights the potential for therapeutic levels of dapsone to induce side effects in patients without G6PD deficiency and highlights the importance of routine blood monitoring for anemia and hemolysis during the course of drug therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the rate of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients undergoing arthroscopic knee procedures, risk factors associated with postoperative VTE, and current perioperative thromboprophylaxis prescription patterns associated with this population in the United States. METHODS Medical records for patients ≥18 years of age were queried from the Mariner database using Current Procedural Terminology codes for knee arthroscopy performed in the United States from 2010 to 2020 in this cross-sectional study. Patients who received thromboprophylaxis and those diagnosed with VTE, including deep-vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, within 90 days of surgery were identified using International Classification of Diseases and National Drug Codes. Two multivariable logistic regression models were used to identify VTE risk factors and likelihood of perioperative thromboprophylaxis. Covariates included procedure type, age, oral contraceptive pill (OCP) use, and medical comorbidities. RESULTS A total of 718,289 patients met inclusion criteria and 7,618 patients (1.06%) experienced VTE, including deep-vein thrombosis (n = 6,394, 0.9%) and/or pulmonary embolism (n = 2,211, 0.3%). A total of 10,769 patients (1.5%) filled perioperative thromboprophylaxis, including aspirin (n = 5,353, 0.7%), low-molecular-weight heparin (n = 4,563, 0.6%), and oral factor Xa inhibitors (n = 947, 0.1%). Perioperative thromboprophylaxis was associated with decreased odds of experiencing VTE (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.51-0.80). Procedure types categorized as moderate-to-greater risk were associated with increased odds of VTE (aOR 1.42, 95% CI 1.34-1.50). OCP use (aOR 1.63, 95% CI 1.38-1.91), obesity (aOR 1.17, 95% CI 1.11-1.24), renal disease (aOR 1.33, 95% CI 1.18-1.50) and congestive heart failure (aOR 1.30, 95% CI 1.13-1.50) were associated with increased odds of VTE. CONCLUSIONS While the overall rate of symptomatic VTE following knee arthroscopy remains low, procedure types that are more complex and generally require restrictive rehabilitation protocols, OCP use, obesity, renal disease, and congestive heart failure are associated with increased odds of postoperative VTE. Conversely, the use of perioperative thromboprophylaxis is associated with significantly lower VTE risk. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective comparative prognostic trial.

Abstract
Paraneoplastic coagulopathies are uncommon in patients with lymphoma. We report the first case of an acquired coagulopathy in a patient with isolated primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) demonstrating large‐cell histology. In our patient, a paraneoplastic factor VII inhibitor significantly delayed a diagnostic lumbar puncture despite fresh frozen plasma and inactivated prothrombin complex concentrate. While her coagulopathy was effectively overcome with recombinant activated factor VIIa and subsequently with lymphoma‐directed therapy, her delayed diagnosis likely contributed to a poor outcome. Our case highlights the importance of rapidly identifying and correcting paraneoplastic coagulopathies when PCNSL is suspected.

Abstract
Introduction Hereditary factor X (FX) deficiency (FXD) is a rare autosomal recessive bleeding disorder. Plasma‐derived FX (pdFX) is a high‐purity FX concentrate approved in the United States and Europe for the treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding episodes and for peri‐operative management in patients with hereditary FXD (HFXD). Aim To review pharmacokinetic dosing, efficacy, and safety data for pdFX as routine prophylaxis for HFXD. Methods Summary of the published pharmacokinetic and safety data from TEN01, TEN02, TEN05, and real‐world publications of pdFX for prophylaxis. Results Pharmacokinetic modelling data from the phase 3 TEN01 study supported administration of pdFX 25 IU/kg twice weekly for routine prophylaxis in adolescents/adults (aged ≥12 years). Results from nine paediatric patients in the phase 3 TEN02 study and eight adolescents/adults (aged ≥12 years) in the retrospective data‐collection TEN05 study, along with real‐world evidence, showed that routine prophylaxis with pdFX ≈40 IU/kg twice weekly in patients aged <12 years and pdFX ≈25 IU/kg twice weekly in patients aged ≥12 years was effective in bleeding prevention. Conclusions pdFX was well tolerated in clinical studies, with no new safety signals identified during routine prophylactic use. Based on current evidence, it is recommended that routine prophylaxis with pdFX be initiated at 25 IU/kg twice weekly in adults/adolescents ≥12 years of age, and at a dosage of 40 IU/kg twice weekly in children <12 years of age. Thereafter, FX levels should be closely monitored, and dosages should be adjusted according to clinical response and to maintain trough levels ≥5 IU/dl.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persons with hemophilia (PWH) are at risk for chronic hemophilic arthropathy (HA). Joint replacement surgery may be used to relieve intractable pain and/or restore joint function. OBJECTIVES This multicenter, prospective, observational cohort study evaluated the rate of bleeding during the postoperative period after total hip (THA) or knee arthroplasty (TKA). PATIENTS/METHODS We included PWH of any severity ≥18 years of age who were undergoing THA or TKA. Clinical decisions were made at the discretion of the treating physician according to local standards of care. Clinical data were prospectively recorded. Major bleeding was defined as bleeding in a critical site, bleeding that resulted in either a 2 g/dl or greater decrease in hemoglobin during any 24-h period, or transfusion of two or more units of packed red blood cells. RESULTS One hundred thirty-one procedures (98 TKA and 33 THA) were performed, 39 (29.8%) of which were complicated by major bleeding, including 46% of THA and 25% of TKA. The risk of major bleeding was increased in THA compared to TKA (OR 2.50, p = .05), and by the presence of an inhibitor (OR 4.29, p = .04), increased BMI (OR 4.49 and 6.09 for overweight and obese, respectively, compared to normal BMI, each p < .01), and non-use of an antifibrinolytic medication (OR 3.00, p = .03). Neither continuous clotting factor infusion (versus bolus infusion) nor pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis were associated with bleeding risk. CONCLUSIONS The bleeding risk remains substantial after THA and TKA in PWH, despite factor replacement. Use of antifibrinolytic medications is associated with decreased risk.

Abstract
Platelets have a wide range of functions including critical roles in hemostasis, thrombosis, and immunity. We hypothesized that during acute inflammation, such as in life-threatening sepsis, there are fundamental changes in the sites of platelet production and phenotypes of resultant platelets. Here, we showed during sepsis that the spleen was a major site of megakaryopoiesis and platelet production. Sepsis provoked an adrenergic-dependent mobilization of megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitors (MEPs) from the bone marrow to the spleen, where IL-3 induced their differentiation into megakaryocytes (MKs). In the spleen, immune-skewed MKs produced a CD40 ligandhi platelet population with potent immunomodulatory functions. Transfusions of post-sepsis platelets enriched from splenic production enhanced immune responses and reduced overall mortality in sepsis-challenged animals. These findings identify a spleen-derived protective platelet population that may be broadly immunomodulatory in acute inflammatory states such as sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Valoctocogene roxaparvovec (AAV5-hFVIII-SQ) is an adeno-associated virus 5 (AAV5)-based gene-therapy vector containing a coagulation factor VIII complementary DNA driven by a liver-selective promoter. The efficacy and safety of the therapy were previously evaluated in men with severe hemophilia A in a phase 1-2 dose-escalation study. METHODS We conducted an open-label, single-group, multicenter, phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of valoctocogene roxaparvovec in men with severe hemophilia A, defined as a factor VIII level of 1 IU per deciliter or lower. Participants who were at least 18 years of age and did not have preexisting anti-AAV5 antibodies or a history of development of factor VIII inhibitors and who had been receiving prophylaxis with factor VIII concentrate received a single infusion of 6×1013 vector genomes of valoctocogene roxaparvovec per kilogram of body weight. The primary end point was the change from baseline in factor VIII activity (measured with a chromogenic substrate assay) during weeks 49 through 52 after infusion. Secondary end points included the change in annualized factor VIII concentrate use and bleeding rates. Safety was assessed as adverse events and laboratory test results. RESULTS Overall, 134 participants received an infusion and completed more than 51 weeks of follow-up. Among the 132 human immunodeficiency virus-negative participants, the mean factor VIII activity level at weeks 49 through 52 had increased by 41.9 IU per deciliter (95% confidence interval [CI], 34.1 to 49.7; P<0.001; median change, 22.9 IU per deciliter; interquartile range, 10.9 to 61.3). Among the 112 participants enrolled from a prospective noninterventional study, the mean annualized rates of factor VIII concentrate use and treated bleeding after week 4 had decreased after infusion by 98.6% and 83.8%, respectively (P<0.001 for both comparisons). All the participants had at least one adverse event; 22 of 134 (16.4%) reported serious adverse events. Elevations in alanine aminotransferase levels occurred in 115 of 134 participants (85.8%) and were managed with immune suppressants. The other most common adverse events were headache (38.1%), nausea (37.3%), and elevations in aspartate aminotransferase levels (35.1%). No development of factor VIII inhibitors or thrombosis occurred in any of the participants. CONCLUSIONS In patients with severe hemophilia A, valoctocogene roxaparvovec treatment provided endogenous factor VIII production and significantly reduced bleeding and factor VIII concentrate use relative to factor VIII prophylaxis.

Abstract
Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene therapy may provide durable protection from bleeding events and reduce treatment burden for people with hemophilia A (HA). However, pre-existing immunity against AAV may limit transduction efficiency and hence treatment success. Global data on the prevalence of AAV serotypes are limited. In this global, prospective, noninterventional study, we determined the prevalence of pre-existing immunity against AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, and AAVrh10 among people ≥12 years of age with HA and residual FVIII levels ≤2 IU/dL. Antibodies against each serotype were detected using validated, electrochemiluminescent-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. To evaluate changes in antibody titers over time, 20% of participants were retested at 3 and 6 months. In total, 546 participants with HA were enrolled at 19 sites in 9 countries. Mean (standard deviation) age at enrollment was 36.0 (14.87) years, including 12.5% younger than 18 years, and 20.0% 50 years of age and older. On day 1, global seroprevalence was 58.5% for AAV2, 34.8% for AAV5, 48.7% for AAV6, 45.6% for AAV8, and 46.0% for AAVrh10. Considerable geographic variability was observed in the prevalence of pre-existing antibodies against each serotype, but AAV5 consistently had the lowest seroprevalence across the countries studied. AAV5 seropositivity rates were 51.8% in South Africa (n = 56), 46.2% in Russia (n = 91), 40% in Italy (n = 20), 37.2% in France (n = 86), 26.8% in the United States (n = 71), 26.9% in Brazil (n = 26), 28.1% in Germany (n = 89), 29.8% in Japan (n = 84), and 5.9% in the United Kingdom (n = 17). For all serotypes, seropositivity tended to increase with age. Serostatus and antibody titer were generally stable over the 6-month sampling period. As clinical trials of AAV-mediated gene therapies progress, data on the natural prevalence of antibodies against various AAV serotypes may become increasingly important.

Abstract
NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines) for Cancer-Associated Venous Thromboembolic Disease focus on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with cancer who have developed or who are at risk for developing venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a significant concern among cancer patients, who are at heightened risks for developing as well as dying from the disease. The management of patients with cancer with VTE often requires multidisciplinary efforts at treating institutions. The NCCN panel comprises specialists from various fields: cardiology, hematology/hematologic oncology, internal medicine, interventional radiology, medical oncology, pharmacology/pharmacy, and surgery/surgical oncology. This article focuses on VTE prophylaxis for medical and surgical oncology inpatients and outpatients, and discusses risk factors for VTE development, risk assessment tools, as well as management methods, including pharmacological and mechanical prophylactics. Contraindications to therapeutic interventions and special dosing, when required, are also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication among patients with cancer. Patients with cancer and VTE are at a markedly increased risk for morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE These evidence-based guidelines of the American Society of Hematology (ASH) are intended to support patients, clinicians, and other health care professionals in their decisions about the prevention and treatment of VTE in patients with cancer. METHODS ASH formed a multidisciplinary guideline panel balanced to minimize potential bias from conflicts of interest. The guideline development process was supported by updated or new systematic evidence reviews. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach was used to assess evidence and make recommendations. RESULTS Recommendations address mechanical and pharmacological prophylaxis in hospitalized medical patients with cancer, those undergoing a surgical procedure, and ambulatory patients receiving cancer chemotherapy. The recommendations also address the use of anticoagulation for the initial, short-term, and long-term treatment of VTE in patients with cancer. CONCLUSIONS Strong recommendations include not using thromboprophylaxis in ambulatory patients receiving cancer chemotherapy at low risk of VTE and to use low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for initial treatment of VTE in patients with cancer. Conditional recommendations include using thromboprophylaxis in hospitalized medical patients with cancer, LMWH or fondaparinux for surgical patients with cancer, LMWH or direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) in ambulatory patients with cancer receiving systemic therapy at high risk of VTE and LMWH or DOAC for initial treatment of VTE, DOAC for the short-term treatment of VTE, and LMWH or DOAC for the long-term treatment of VTE in patients with cancer.

Abstract
Background The role of race/ethnicity in genetic predisposition of early-onset cancers can be estimated by comparing family-based cancer concordance rates among ethnic groups. Methods We used linked California health registries to evaluate the relative cancer risks for first-degree relatives of patients diagnosed between ages 0 and 26, and the relative risks of developing distinct second primary malignancies (SPMs). From 1989 to 2015, we identified 29,631 cancer patients and 62,863 healthy family members. We calculated the standardized incident ratios (SIRs) of early-onset primary cancers diagnosed in proband siblings and mothers, as well as SPMs detected among early-onset patients. Analyses were stratified by self-identified race/ethnicity. Results Given probands with cancer, there were increased relative risks of any cancer for siblings and mothers (SIR = 3.32; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.85-3.85) and of SPMs (SIR = 7.27; 95% CI: 6.56-8.03). Given a proband with solid cancer, both Latinos (SIR = 4.98; 95% CI: 3.82-6.39) and non-Latino Blacks (SIR = 7.35; 95% CI: 3.36-13.95) exhibited significantly higher relative risk of any cancer in siblings and mothers when compared to non-Latino White subjects (SIR = 3.02; 95% CI: 2.12-4.16). For hematologic cancers, higher familial risk was evident for Asian/Pacific Islanders (SIR = 7.56; 95% CI: 3.26-14.90) compared to non-Latino whites (SIR = 2.69; 95% CI: 1.62-4.20). Conclusions The data support a need for increased attention to the genetics of early-onset cancer predisposition and environmental factors in race/ethnic minority families in the United States.

Abstract
Patients with multiple myeloma (MM) scheduled for autologous stem cell transplantation must undergo autologous stem cell mobilization; unfortunately, however, many do not obtain an adequate collection yield. Despite the availability of plerixafor, its widespread and uniform use is limited by its cost, and consequently, many institutions have adopted various risk-adapted algorithms. We report our mobilization experience as we have modified our plerixafor algorithm to a more liberal one, with the expectation of greater collection efficiency and mobilization success with higher plerixafor use. A total of 344 mobilization attempts were analyzed over 3 time periods and using 3 different peripheral blood CD34+ cell counts to guide plerixafor use: <15/µL (n = 66), <20/µL (n = 130), and <40/µL (n = 148). The primary endpoints were evaluation of changes in mean plerixafor utilization and apheresis days and assessment of the impact on overall mobilization costs. Secondary endpoints were a description of the impact of lenalidomide use on mobilization and evaluation of the rate of mobilization failure. We found that mean plerixafor use increased from 1.32 to 1.65 to 1.74 doses per mobilization (P = .026) and the mean days of apheresis decreased from 2.15 to 2.17 to 1.89 days per mobilization for the <15/µL, <20/µL, and <40/µL cohorts, respectively (P = .011). The combined cost of plerixafor and apheresis procedures at a threshold of 40/µL is close to that at a threshold of 15/µL, while saving 26 apheresis days per 100 patients. In general, there were low rates of mobilization failure across all thresholds. Patients who received more than 6 cycles of lenalidomide demonstrated impaired mobilization and required more apheresis sessions (P < .013) and greater plerixafor use (P < .001) to achieve target stem cell yields. Overall, using plerixafor in patients with MM, with a day 4 pCD34 count of <40/µL is a reasonable and cost-effective strategy to optimize apheresis utilization.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICPis) are a novel class of immunotherapeutic agents that have revolutionized the treatment of cancer; however, these drugs can also cause a unique spectrum of autoimmune toxicity. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a rare, but often severe, complication of ICPis. We identified 14 patients from nine institutions across the United States who developed ICPi-AIHA. The median interval from ICPi initiation to development of AIHA was 55 days (interquartile range [IQR], 22-110 days). Results from the direct antiglobulin test (DAT) were available for 13 of 14 patients: 8 patients (62%) had a positive DAT and 5 (38%) had a negative DAT. The median pretreatment and nadir hemoglobin concentrations were 11.8 g/dL (IQR, 10.2-12.9 g/dL) and 6.3 g/dL (IQR, 6.1-8.0 g/dL), respectively. Four patients (29%) had a preexisting lymphoproliferative disorder, and two (14%) had a positive DAT prior to initiation of ICPi therapy. All patients were treated with glucocorticoids, with three requiring additional immunosuppressive therapy. Complete and partial recoveries of hemoglobin were achieved in 12 (86%) and 2 (14%) patients, respectively. Seven patients (50%) were rechallenged with ICPis, and one (14%) developed recurrent AIHA. Clinical and laboratory features of ICPi-AIHA were similar in DAT positive and negative patients. ICPi-AIHA shares many clinical features with primary AIHA; however, a unique aspect of ICPi-AIHA is a high incidence of DAT negativity. Glucocorticoids are an effective first-line treatment in the majority of patients with ICPi-AIHA, and most patients who are rechallenged with an ICPi do not appear to develop recurrence of AIHA.

Abstract
There are distinct cell subpopulations in normal epithelial tissue, including stem cells, progenitor cells, and more differentiated cells, all of which have been extensively studied for their susceptibility to tumorigenesis. However, normal cells usually have to progress through a precancerous lesion state before becoming a full-blown tumor. Precancerous early lesions are heterogeneous, and the cell subset that is the primary source of the eventual tumor remains largely unknown. By using mouse models that are tailored to address this question, we identified a keratin 6a-expressing precancerous stem cell (PcSC) subset and a more differentiated whey acidic protein-positive (WAP+) cell subset in mammary precancerous lesions initiated by the Wnt1 oncogene. Both cell subsets rapidly progressed to cancer upon introduction of constitutively active versions of either HRAS or BRAF. However, the resulting tumors were dramatically different in protein profiles and histopathology: keratin 6a+ precancerous cells gave rise to adenocarcinoma, whereas WAP+ cells yielded metaplastic carcinoma with severe squamous differentiation and more robust activation of MEK/ERK signaling. Therefore, both stem and non-stem cells in mammary precancerous lesions can contribute to the eventual cancers, but their differentiation status determines the resulting cancer phenotype. This work identifies a previously unknown player in cancer heterogeneity and suggests that cancer prevention should target precancerous cells broadly and not be limited to PcSC. SIGNIFICANCE: This work uses a novel mouse mammary gland cancer model to show that tumors initiated from different precancerous mammary epithelial cells are distinct.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Posttransfusion purpura (PTP) is a rare condition characterized by severe thrombocytopenia following receipt of blood products. Most reported PTP cases involve alloantibodies directed against human platelet antigen (HPA)-1a. We present a case of PTP-mediated severe thrombocytopenia associated with alloantibodies directed against HPA-4a in the setting of combination checkpoint inhibitor therapy. CASE REPORT A 62-year-old woman with rectal melanoma that progressed on combination checkpoint inhibitors (ipilimumab and nivolumab) was admitted for abdominoperineal resection. She received multiple blood products during surgery, and between the sixth and eighth days post-surgery her platelet (PLT) count decreased from 126 × 109 /L to a nadir of 1 × 109 /L. She received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), steroids, and romiplostim with eventual recovery of her PLT count to 50 × 109 /L 20 days after surgery. She tested positive for anti-HPA-4a and was shown not to express HPA-4a, confirming a diagnosis of PTP. CONCLUSION Alloantibodies strongly reactive to HPA-4a were detected in this patient who received multiple blood products during abdominoperineal resection surgery. Her thrombocytopenia improved with prompt administration of IVIG, steroids, and romiplostim. PTP must always be considered in patients with acute severe thrombocytopenia after receipt of blood products, and treatment should not be delayed while awaiting laboratory confirmation. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case of PTP with antibodies against HPA-4a.

Abstract
Platelets are critical for haemostasis, thrombosis, and inflammatory responses, but the events that lead to mature platelet production remain incompletely understood. The bone marrow has been proposed to be a major site of platelet production, although there is indirect evidence that the lungs might also contribute to platelet biogenesis. Here, by directly imaging the lung microcirculation in mice, we show that a large number of megakaryocytes circulate through the lungs, where they dynamically release platelets. Megakaryocytes that release platelets in the lungs originate from extrapulmonary sites such as the bone marrow; we observed large megakaryocytes migrating out of the bone marrow space. The contribution of the lungs to platelet biogenesis is substantial, accounting for approximately 50% of total platelet production or 10 million platelets per hour. Furthermore, we identified populations of mature and immature megakaryocytes along with haematopoietic progenitors in the extravascular spaces of the lungs. Under conditions of thrombocytopenia and relative stem cell deficiency in the bone marrow, these progenitors can migrate out of the lungs, repopulate the bone marrow, completely reconstitute blood platelet counts, and contribute to multiple haematopoietic lineages. These results identify the lungs as a primary site of terminal platelet production and an organ with considerable haematopoietic potential.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although an Observed Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) has been used to evaluate patient interaction and general knowledge competencies of third-year students during their required surgical clerkships, whether surgical clerkship experience predicts satisfactory performance with a surgical patient in an OSCE environment has not been investigated. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that completion of the third-year surgery clerkship would improve student ability to diagnose acute cholecystitis and recognize the further need for hospital admission and treatment. DESIGN An observational study design was used to determine student skills in evaluating a simulated surgical patient with abdominal pain from acute cholecystitis. The skills included key data gathering, physical examination, and information-sharing tasks. SETTING Tertiary care academic medical center. PARTICIPANTS Performance was compared between a cohort of 101 medical students who had completed the third-year surgical clerkship and 72 who had not. A secondary analysis compared performance for 91 students who had completed their third-year clerkship in sites near the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine, and 10 who did so at a regional campus geographically distant from the medical school. RESULTS Of the 173 students who participated in the OSCE, only 42% correctly identified the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, though 71% did suggest the possibility of a biliary process to the standardized patient. Most of the students who identified the condition as acute cholecystitis or gallbladder-related process had completed their third-year surgical clerkship (odds ratio [OR] = 3.26). Students who completed their surgical clerkship were also better able to recommend appropriate treatment for the patient (OR = 2.35), and recommend admission to the hospital or emergency department (OR = 2.00). Approximately one-third (35.3%) of all students documented a positive Murphy's sign, but only 6.4% identified the triad of leukocytosis, fever, and a Murphy's sign as diagnostic of acute cholecystitis and the need for surgical intervention. Student performance on the clinical examination did not differ depending on whether the students completed their clerkship at a Bay Area or regional hospital. CONCLUSIONS Student recognition of the key physical examination and laboratory findings diagnostic of acute cholecystitis was low, but students were better able to recommend further treatment for a patient with acute cholecystitis after completing the third-year surgical clerkship. Our study reveals areas where surgical educators can improve medical student ability to accurately diagnose acute cholecystitis and evaluate acute abdominal processes.

Abstract
Despite great advances in understanding the mechanisms underlying blood production, lineage specification at the level of multipotent progenitors (MPPs) remains poorly understood. Here, we show that MPP2 and MPP3 are distinct myeloid-biased MPP subsets that work together with lymphoid-primed MPP4 cells to control blood production. We find that all MPPs are produced in parallel by hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), but with different kinetics and at variable levels depending on hematopoietic demands. We also show that the normally rare myeloid-biased MPPs are transiently overproduced by HSCs in regenerating conditions, hence supporting myeloid amplification to rebuild the hematopoietic system. This shift is accompanied by a reduction in self-renewal activity in regenerating HSCs and reprogramming of MPP4 fate toward the myeloid lineage. Our results support a dynamic model of blood development in which HSCs convey lineage specification through independent production of distinct lineage-biased MPP subsets that, in turn, support lineage expansion and differentiation.

Abstract
A potential link between arsenic (ATO)-based therapy and delayed hematopoietic recovery after autologous hematopoietic SCT (HSCT) for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) has previously been reported. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical histories of 58 patients undergoing autologous HSCT for APL at 21 institutions in the United States and Japan. Thirty-three (56%) of the patients received ATO-based therapy prior to stem cell collection. Delayed neutrophil engraftment occurred in 10 patients (17%): 9 of the 10 patients (90%) received prior ATO (representing 27% of all ATO-treated patients), compared with 1 of the 10 patients (10%) not previously treated with ATO (representing 4% of all ATO-naïve patients; P<0.001). Compared with ATO-naïve patients, ATO-treated patients experienced significantly longer times to ANC recovery (median 12 days vs 9 days, P<0.001). In multivariate analysis, the only significant independent predictor of delayed neutrophil engraftment was prior treatment with ATO (hazard ratio 4.87; P<0.001). Of the available stem cell aliquots from APL patients, the median viable post-thaw CD34+ cell recovery was significantly lower than that of cryopreserved autologous stem cell products from patients with non-APL AML. Our findings suggest that ATO exposure prior to CD34+ cell harvest has deleterious effects on hematopoietic recovery after autologous HSCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in supportive care, moderate-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high mortality rates, and novel therapies to treat this condition are needed. Compelling pre-clinical data from mouse, rat, sheep and ex vivo perfused human lung models support the use of human mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells (MSCs) as a novel intravenous therapy for the early treatment of ARDS. METHODS This article describes the study design and challenges encountered during the implementation and phase 1 component of the START (STem cells for ARDS Treatment) trial, a phase 1/2 trial of bone marrow-derived human MSCs for moderate-severe ARDS. A trial enrolling 69 subjects is planned (9 subjects in phase 1, 60 subjects in phase 2 treated with MSCs or placebo in a 2:1 ratio). RESULTS This report describes study design features that are unique to a phase 1 trial in critically ill subjects and the specific challenges of implementation of a cell-based therapy trial in the ICU. CONCLUSIONS Experience gained during the design and implementation of the START study will be useful to investigators planning future phase 1 clinical trials based in the ICU, as well as trials of cell-based therapy for other acute illnesses.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Mutational activation of BRAF leading to expression of the BRAF(V600E) oncoprotein was recently identified in a high percentage of specific hematopoietic neoplasms in monocyte/histiocyte and mature B-cell lineages. Although BRAF(V600E) is a driver oncoprotein and pharmacologic target in solid tumors such as melanoma, lung, and thyroid cancer, it remains unknown whether BRAF(V600E) is an appropriate therapeutic target in hematopoietic neoplasms. To address this critical question, we generated a mouse model expressing inducible BRAF(V600E) in the hematopoietic system, and evaluated the efficacy of pathway-targeted therapeutics against primary hematopoietic cells. In this model, BRAF(V600E) expression conferred cytokine-independent growth to monocyte/macrophage-lineage progenitors leading to aberrant in vivo and in vitro monocyte/macrophage expansion. Furthermore, transplantation of BRAF(V600E)-expressing bone marrow cells promoted an in vivo pathology most notable for monocytosis in hematopoietic tissues and visceral organs. In vitro analysis revealed that MAP-ERK kinase inhibition, but not RAF inhibition, effectively suppressed cytokine-independent clonal growth of monocyte/macrophage-lineage progenitors. However, combined RAF and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibition effectively inhibited cytokine-independent colony formation, suggesting autocrine PI3K pathway activation. Taken together, these results provide evidence that constitutively activated BRAF(V600E) drives aberrant proliferation of monocyte-lineage cells. IMPLICATIONS This study supports the development of pathway-targeted therapeutics in the treatment of BRAF(V600E)-expressing hematopoietic neoplasms in the monocyte/histiocyte lineage.

Abstract
Nontemplated 3'-end oligouridylation of RNA occurs in many species, including humans. Unlike the familiar phenomenon of polyadenylation, nontemplated addition of uridines to RNA is poorly characterized in higher eukaryotes. Recent studies have reported nontemplated 3'-end oligouridylation of small RNAs and mRNAs. Oligouridylation is involved in many aspects of microRNA biology from biogenesis to turnover of the mature species, and it may also mark long mRNAs for degradation by promoting decapping of the protective 5'-cap structure. To determine the prevalence of oligouridylation in higher eukaryotes, we used next-generation sequencing technology to deeply examine the population of small RNAs in human cells. Our data revealed widespread nontemplated nucleotide addition to the 3' ends of many classes of RNA, with short stretches of uridine being the most frequently added nucleotide.

Abstract
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) hold great promise for ushering in an era of novel cell therapies to treat a wide range of rare and common diseases, yet they also provide an unprecedented opportunity for basic research to yield clinical benefit. HESCs can be used to better understand human development, to model human diseases, to understand the contribution of specific mutations to the pathogenesis of disease, and to develop human cell-based screening systems to identify novel therapeutic agents and evaluate potential toxicity of therapeutic agents under development. Such basic research will benefit greatly from efficient methods to perform targeted gene modification, an area of hESC investigation that is currently in its infancy. Moreover, the reality of hESC-based cellular therapies will require improved methods for generating the specific cells of interest, and reporter cell lines generated through targeted gene modifications are expected to play an important role in developing optimal cell-specific differentiation protocols. Herein, we review the current status of homologous recombination in hESCs, a gene targeting technique that is sure to continue to improve, and to play an important role in realizing the maximal human benefit from hESCs.

Abstract
Thrombocytopenia, an abnormally low number of circulating platelets, results from inadequate platelet production, splenic platelet sequestration, or accelerated platelet clearance. Platelet transfusions are now the cornerstone for treating thrombocytopenia. With an ever-expanding demand for platelets, and with many patients having an inadequate response to platelet transfusions, new strategies are needed to treat thrombocytopenia. In this issue of the JCI, Fuentes et al. present provocative data regarding the use of direct megakaryocyte infusions as a novel approach to manage this vexing clinical problem.

Abstract
Directed differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) has generated much interest in the field of regenerative medicine. While subpopulations of hESCs within pluripotent cultures have been identified based on expression of specific surface antigens, their significance and fates are not well understood. To determine whether such subpopulations indicate specific tissue fates or represent stochastic antigen distributions within proliferating cultures, we isolated CD133(+) or CD135(+) hESCs from proliferating cultures constitutively expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (GFP), and co-cultured these with unselected GFP(-) hESCs. After passage in culture, GFP(+) hESCs reanalyzed for the persistence of CD133 or CD135 expression, as well as other surface antigens (Tra-1-60, SSEA-4, FGFR-1), demonstrated that these two subpopulations continued to express CD133 or CD135 over serial passage, and that CD133(+) hESCs were enriched for SSEA-4 expression as well. Upon differentiation in vitro, CD133(+)GFP(+) hESCs gave rise solely to ectoderm, as detected by expression of nestin. Tissues representing endoderm (alpha-fetoprotein(+)) and mesoderm (smooth muscle actin(+)) were not seen among GFP(+) tissues. In contrast, selection against CD133 gave rise almost exclusively to mesoderm and endoderm. In contrast, CD135(+)GFP(+) hESCs gave rise to tissues representing all three embryonic germ layers, and were virtually indistinguishable from CD135(-)-derived tissues. Similar results were obtained by in vivo differentiation in teratomas. These data establish that subpopulations of proliferating hESCs whose tissue fate is predetermined exist, and challenge the notion that all cells within proliferating hESC cultures are truly "pluripotent." This co-culture approach also will enable identification of other distinct hESC subpopulations, and selection for these should prove valuable in generating tissue-specific reagents for cell-based therapy.

Abstract
Genetic modification of human embryonic stem (hES) cells is essential for studies of gene function and differentiation. The expression of transgenes may direct tissue-specific differentiation and aid in the identification of various differentiated cell types. Stable genomic integration of transgenes is optimal because hES cell differentiation can span several days to weeks and include numerous cell divisions, and establishing homogeneous modified cell lines will facilitate research studies. Herein we provide a method for producing and expanding hES cell lines from single cells that have been isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) following genetic modification by lentivirus vectors. Using this method, we have established enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP)-expressing hES cell lines that are pluripotent, contain a diploid chromosomal content, and stably express eGFP following more than 2 months of routine culture and in vivo differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The platelet fibrinogen receptor, a heterodimer consisting of integrin subunits alpha(IIb) and beta(3), is required for platelet aggregation, spreading, and hemostasis. Platelet agonists such as thrombin and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) lead to the activation of alpha(IIb)beta(3), thereby enhancing its affinity and avidity for binding fibrinogen (inside-out signaling). Furthermore, fibrinogen binding to alpha(IIb)beta(3) triggers cytoskeletal changes and granule release (outside-in signaling). AIM Genetic approaches to characterize the molecular pathways involved in alpha(IIb)beta(3) signaling are not possible with anucleate blood platelets. Therefore, we have established an OP9 stromal cell co-culture system to generate megakaryocytes from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). RESULTS alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation, measured by soluble fibrinogen binding to hESC-derived megakaryocytes, /GPIbalpha(+) cells, is readily detectable following stimulation with known platelet agonists. Dose-response curves for peptide agonists specific for the two platelet thrombin receptors, protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) and PAR4, show a relative responsiveness that mirrors that of human platelets, and sub-maximal ADP responses are augmented by epinephrine. Moreover, hESC-derived megakaryocytes undergo lamellipodia formation, actin filament assembly, and vinculin localization at focal adhesions when plated on a fibrinogen-coated surface, characteristic of alpha(IIb)beta(3) outside-in signaling. Undifferentiated hESCs genetically modified by lentiviral infection can be cloned and maintained in an undifferentiated state and then differentiated into megakaryocytes capable of alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation. CONCLUSION Using hESCs, we have developed a renewable source of human megakaryocytes, and a genetically tractable system for studying megakaryocytopoiesis and alpha(IIb)beta(3) signaling in the native cellular environment.

Abstract
Proteomic technology has the potential to transform the way we analyze platelet biology, through the determination of platelet protein composition and its modification upon stimulation and with disease. We are a considerable way from achieving these goals, however, because of significant limitations in current methodology. It is therefore important to consider the extent to which these aims can be met and the way that proteomic data should be presented and used. These issues are discussed in the present paper by the Platelet Physiology Subcommittee of the ISTH Scientific Standardisation Committee (SSC). It is recommended that proteomic information be combined with data from other experimental approaches to establish a database on protein expression and function in platelets.

Abstract
Raf kinases play an integral role in the classic mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase (Raf/MEK/extracellular signal-related kinase [ERK]) intracellular signaling cascade, but their role in specific developmental processes is largely unknown. Using a genetic approach, we have identified a role for B-Raf during hematopoietic progenitor cell development and during megakaryocytopoiesis. Fetal liver and in vitro embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived myeloid progenitor development is quantitatively impaired in the absence of B-Raf. Biochemical data suggest that this phenotype is due to the loss of a normally occurring rise in B-Raf expression and associated ERK1/2 activation during hematopoietic progenitor cell formation. However, the presence of B-raf-/- ES cell-derived myeloid progenitors in the bone marrow of adult chimeric mice indicates the lack of an obligate cell-autonomous requirement for B-Raf in myeloid progenitor development. The lack of B-Raf also impairs megakaryocytopoiesis. Thrombopoietin (Tpo)-induced in vitro expansion of ES cell-derived megakaryocyte-lineage cells fails to occur in the absence of B-Raf. Moreover, this quantitative in vitro defect in megakaryocyte-lineage expansion is mirrored by chimeric mice data that show reduced B-raf-/- genotype contribution in megakaryocytes relative to its contribution in myeloid progenitors. Together, these data suggest that B-Raf plays a cell-autonomous role in megakaryocytopoiesis and a permissive role in myeloid progenitor development.

Abstract
Fibrinogen binding by integrin alphaIIbbeta3 is promoted by platelet agonists that increase the affinity and avidity of alphaIIbbeta3 for fibrinogen through a process called "inside-out" signaling. Having previously demonstrated that inside-out activation of alphaIIbbeta3 is defective in murine megakaryocytes that lack the transcription factor NF-E2, we screened for NF-E2-regulated genes that affect alphaIIbbeta3 activation. Caspase-12 is the most down-regulated gene we identified in NF-E2(-/-) megakaryocytes. Therefore, the role of this protein in alphaIIbbeta3 activation was determined using platelets from caspase-12(-/-) mice. Despite wild-type levels of alphaIIbbeta3, caspase-12(-/-) platelets exhibit reduced fibrinogen binding to alphaIIbbeta3 following stimulation by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) receptor-activating peptide. The defect in alphaIIbbeta3 activation is associated with decreased cytosolic free calcium and inositol triphosphate levels, and with reduced aggregation, despite wild-type phospholipase Cbeta expression levels. In contrast, agonist-induced surface expression of P-selectin, suppression of cAMP levels following ADP stimulation, and spreading on immobilized fibrinogen are unimpaired. Moreover, although caspase-12 is highly expressed in mature megakaryocytes, it is undetectable in platelets. Taken together, these studies establish that caspase-12 expression in murine megakaryocytes is regulated, directly or indirectly, by NF-E2, and suggest that caspase-12 participates in the development of fully functional signaling pathways linking some G-protein-coupled receptors to alphaIIbbeta3 activation.

Abstract
AbstractThrombopoietin stimulates extracellular signal-related kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) phosphorylation in megakaryocytes, and the classic mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase (Raf/mitogen-induced extracellular kinase [MEK]/ERK) pathway has been implicated directly and indirectly to play a critical role in megakaryocytopoiesis. However, the involvement of specific Raf family members in megakaryocytopoiesis is unknown. raf-1-/- mice were therefore used to directly determine the role of Raf-1 in megakaryocytopoiesis. Surprisingly, raf-1-/- mice have a modestly higher platelet count than their raf-1+/+ littermates. Nonetheless, the absence of Raf-1 does not alter thrombopoietin-induced expansion of primary megakaryocyte-lineage cells, the development of apoptotic megakaryocytes in the presence or absence of thrombopoietin, or the development of megakaryocyte DNA ploidy distribution. Moreover, raf-1-/- megakaryocytes do not have a compensatory increase in A-Raf or B-Raf expression, and thrombopoietin-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation is similar in raf-1-/- and raf-1+/+ megakaryocytes. These unexpected findings demonstrate that Raf-1 is dispensable for megakaryocytopoiesis, and for thrombopoietin-induced ERK1/2 activation in primary megakaryocyte-lineage cells.

Abstract
Previous studies have identified an enhancer 3' of the scl gene that can direct transgene expression to hematopoietic progenitors and stem cells. Here we use this enhancer to restrict expression of the avian leukosis virus receptor, TVA, to hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors in bone marrow and fetal liver and demonstrate that retroviral infection can be used to specifically introduce exogenous sequences. We show that a majority of CFU-S12 multipotential progenitor cells can be transduced in vitro. Uniquely, transduction of TVA+ progenitors with a retrovirus encoding a puromycin resistance gene allows selection and expansion of a multipotential hematopoietic progenitor population that can be superinfected with high efficiency. Using this system we show for the first time that v-Myb oncoproteins expressed from avian viruses can induce a leukemic transformation in the mouse. The phenotype of the transformed cells is similar to that which is seen in the chicken and is likewise dependent on the particular structure of v-Myb. This implies that the basic mechanisms of action of mutated transcription factors in the etiology of leukemia are conserved between birds and mammals.

Abstract
Fibrinogen binding to integrin alphaIIbbeta3 mediates platelet aggregation and requires agonist-induced "inside-out" signals that increase alphaIIbbeta3 affinity. Agonist regulation of alphaIIbbeta3 also takes place in megakaryocytes, the bone marrow cells from which platelets are derived. To facilitate mechanistic studies of inside-out signaling, we describe here the generation of megakaryocytes in quantity from murine embryonic stem (ES) cells. Coculture of ES cells for 8-12 days with OP9 stromal cells in the presence of thrombopoietin, IL-6, and IL-11 resulted in the development of large, polyploid megakaryocytes that produced proplatelets. These cells expressed alphaIIbbeta3 and platelet glycoprotein Ibalpha but were devoid of hematopoietic stem cell, erythrocyte, and leukocyte markers. Mature megakaryocytes, but not megakaryocyte progenitors, specifically bound fibrinogen by way of alphaIIbbeta3 in response to platelet agonists. Retrovirus-mediated expression of the reporter gene, green fluorescent protein, in ES cell-derived megakaryocytes did not affect viability or alphaIIbbeta3 function. On the other hand, retroviral expression of CalDAG-GEFI, a Rap1 exchange factor identified by megakaryocyte gene profiling as a candidate integrin regulator, enhanced agonist-induced activation of Rap1b and fibrinogen binding to alphaIIbbeta3 (P < 0.01). These results establish that ES cells are a ready source of mature megakaryocytes for integrin studies and other biological applications, and they implicate CalDAG-GEFI in inside-out signaling to alphaIIbbeta3.

Abstract
Integrin alphaIIbbeta3 mediates key platelet adhesive responses during hemostasis and thrombosis. Adhesive ligand binding to alphaIIbbeta3 is regulated by "inside-out" signals, while adhesion-dependent cytoskeletal events are regulated by "outside-in" signals from alphaIIbbeta3. Currently, the molecular basis of bidirectional alphaIIbbeta3 signaling is incompletely understood. The functional assessment of integrin signaling pathways in nucleated cells has been facilitated by techniques such as viral transduction which enable expression of dominant-active and dominant-inhibitory gene products. This approach cannot be used with anucleate platelets. However, recent advances in the ability to expand human and murine megakaryocytes from hematopoietic stem cells provide a tractable and genetically manipulatable system for studies of alphaIIbbeta3 signaling. This overview will discuss some of the advantages and limitations of this approach and provide examples of its utility. Thus, in addition to their intrinsic value for understanding hematopoiesis and platelet formation, primary megakaryocytes represent a model system complementary to platelets for unraveling the remaining mysteries of alphaIIbbeta3 signaling.

Abstract
Mpl is the thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor. The current molecular understanding of how Mpl activation stimulates proliferation of megakaryocyte-lineage cells is based largely on the engineered expression of Mpl in nonmegakaryocyte-lineage cell lines. However, the relevance of these findings to Mpl signaling in primary megakaryocyte-lineage cells remains largely unknown. Therefore, a system was developed to study Mpl function in primary mpl(-/-) megakaryocyte-lineage cells. Expressing avian retroviral receptors on the surfaces of mammalian cells overcomes their natural block to avian retroviral infection; 815 bp of human GPIIb regulatory sequence was used to generate transgenic mice with megakaryocyte-lineage expression of the subgroup A avian leukosis virus receptor, TVA. Avian retroviral infection of unfractionated bone marrow from these mice is restricted to megakaryocyte-lineage cells. The transgenic mice were crossed to an mpl(-/-) background generating GPIIb-tva+mpl(-/-) mice. By using avian retroviruses to express wild-type or mutant Mpl on the surfaces of primary megakaryocyte-lineage cells, it was demonstrated that (1) the 10 membrane-proximal, cytoplasmic amino acids of Mpl are required for TPO-induced proliferation; (2) Y582F mutation confers a proliferative advantage over wild-type Mpl and imparts a constitutive anti-apoptotic signal; (3) truncating the 50 C-terminal Mpl amino acids reduces but does not eliminate TPO-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase activation, yet it does not alter the synergistic effect of stem cell factor on TPO-induced proliferation; and (4) TPO-induced proliferation of early, primary megakaryocyte-lineage cells does not require Stat-5 phosphorylation. The system reported provides an improved approach for Mpl structure-function studies, and the method can be applied to any hematopoietic lineage.
