Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of decitabine combined with low dose chemotherapy (LDC) in the treatment of high-risk, refractory and relapsed pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods: Clinical data of 19 AML children treated with decitabine combined with LDC in the Department of Hematology, Children's Hospital of Soochow University from April 2017 to November 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The therapeutic response, adverse effects and survival status were analyzed,and the outcomes of patients were followed up. Results: Among 19 AML cases, there were 10 males and 9 females. Five cases were high-risk AML, 7 cases were refractory AML, and 7 cases were relapsed AML. After one course of decitabine+LDC treatment, 15 cases achieved complete remission, 3 cases got partial remission, and only 1 case didn't get remission. All patients received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as consolidation therapy. The follow-up time of all cases was 46 (37, 58) months, 14 children had survived. The cumulative three-year overall survival rate was (79±9) %, events free survival rates was (68±11) %, and recurrence free survival rate was (81±10) %. The most common adverse effects related to the induction treatment were cytopenia (19 cases) and infection (16 cases).There were no treatment-related death during the therapy. Conclusion: Decitabine combined with LDC is a safe and effective option for high-risk, refractory and relapsed AML children, which provides an opportunity for HSCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of China Children Leukemia Group-ALL2008 (CCLG-ALL 2008) protocol in pediatric patients with mixed-lineage leukaemia (MLL) gene rearrangement of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) to identify the prognostic factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS Six hundred and thirty-four patients with ALL were enrolled in this study between June 2008 and Dec 2014. High-risk group (HR) consisted of 217 cases, of which 28 cases were MLL related positive (first group), 22 cases were BCR/ABL positive (second group), and 167 cases were negative with MLL related or BCR/ABL (third group). The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated at the time points of day 8 (TP1), day 15 (TP2), day 33 (TP3) and 12th week (TP4) with the protocol, respectively. Overall-survival (OS) and relapse-free-survival (RFS) and treatment-related mortality (TRD) were analyzed as well. RESULTS The first group accounted for 4.4% of all patients. Compared with the second and third group, the first group had more cases younger than 2 years, with initial leukocytes ≥50×109/L, and poor response on TP2. Moreover, patients older than 2 years old had a good 5 years OS (84% ± 9% vs. 37% ± 20%, p<0.05) and RFS (84% ± 9% vs. 29% ± 17%, p<0.05). There were no significant differences in the recurrence rate, TRD, 5 years OS and RFS among three groups. For the first group, compared with good response to prednisone, patients with poor response to prednisone had a poor 5 years RFS (41% ± 17% vs. 81% ± 10%, p<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified that RFS and OS were influenced by such factors as age, MLL fusion partners, and prednisone response (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Such factors as younger age than 2 years old, MLL/AF4 fusion gene, poor response to prednisone, or no complete remission (CR) on TP3 were poor prognostic parameters in predicting the outcome in childhood ALL with MLL gene rearrangement treated with CCLG-ALL 2008 protocol.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) is a member of the CC subfamily, which displays chemotactic activity for monocytes and basophils. This molecule plays a very important role in many solid tumors and shows changes in the bone marrow microenvironment. However, its role in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is still unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, we established a HL-60 cell line with CCL2 knockdown to explore its effect on leukemogenesis. Lentivirus with CCL2-knockdown was successfully constructed after screening effective CCL2 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) sequences and was transfected into HL-60 cells, which was further validated at the mRNA and protein levels by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blotting, respectively. RESULTS Low expression of CCL2 significantly decreased HL-60 cell growth by increasing the cell arrest at G1 phase by 12% more than controls. We applied RNA sequencing technology to discriminate the gene expression profiles between the cells with CCL2 knockdown and the controls, and Cyclin D1 was selected for further experiments as its expression level was significantly downregulated, which was validated at the mRNA and protein levels. Cyclin D1 knockdown experiments showed that the cell proliferation rate was evidently decelerated, and cell cycle analysis also indicated a similar pattern for CCL2. CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed that Cyclin D1 is an effector that mediates CCL2's function in cell proliferation by blocking cells at G1 phase.

Abstract
The safety of decitabine as bridging treatment before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in children with refractory hematological malignancies was evaluated. All 11 cases succeeded in hematopoietic reconstitution. The main adverse reaction was hematological toxicity. Neither did infections occur, nor drug-induced liver damage and renal impairment during decitabine administration. Most cases showed grade Ⅰ-Ⅱgastrointestinal adverse events. One case was diagnosed as severe acute graft versus host disease and died of intracranial hemorrhage on day 61 after allo-HSCT. The other 10 patients survived. Decitabine bridge is a safe regimen before allo-HSCT in children with refractory hematological malignancies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the cut-off value of minimal residual disease (MRD) in predicting the efficacy of CCLG-ALL-2008 or CCLG-2008 treatment protocol on pediatric B-precursor ALL (BP-ALL). PATIENTS AND METHODS Three hundred and seventy-nine Chinese pediatric BP-ALL were enrolled in this study between Dec 2008 and Sep 2013 in two stratified cohorts. One hundred and fifty-three patients enrolled between Dec 2008 and Oct 2010 as the first cohort, and 196 patients enrolled from Nov 2010 to Sep 2013 as the second cohort. Clinical and biological characteristics and 5 years EFS, RFS, and OS were analyzed. RESULTS Patients with E2A-PBX1 showed a favorable treatment response with a lower minimal residual disease (MRD) level (< 10-4) at the time point 1 (TP1, p = 0.039) and the highest proportion of the 5-year EFS, RFS, and OS. A high level of MRD was associated with high WBC counts, increased age, BCR-ABL1 fusion gene, MLL rearrangements and adverse karyotypes. In comparison with the first cohort, the second cohort with the MRD assay incorporated prospectively, the standard risk (SR) and the intermediate risk (IR) patients showed a better RFS, EFS, and OS while the high-risk (HR) patients displayed worse RFS, EFS, and OS than those of the first cohort, respectively. Patients with MRD level at either 10-4 or 10-3 showed a similar OS at TP1 or TP2, and patients with MRD level above 10-2 had the worst OS. CONCLUSIONS This study indicated that the levels of MRD to be an adequate guide in risk-adapted treatment under the CCLG-ALL-2008 protocol and can be adapted to the future development of advanced clinical protocols.

Abstract
In this paper, a simple, reliable and flexible method, which integrated in situ synthesis with the spotting technique, was reported to fabricate oligonucleotide array. Different oligonucleotide sequences are synthesized on their relative code glass slides through combinational chemistry, thus the slides are broken into smaller pieces, in which the same code pieces have the same probe sequences. An oligonucleotide array is fabricated by arbitrarily assembling these different code pieces onto another solid substrate. In principle experimentation, four different sequences of P16 gene were synthesized and a 5 x 5 array including these four sequences and the control black was fabricated. The analysis results indicated that the hybridization fluorescence intensity of the same sequences locating different sets on the array gave the approximate values, and the fluorescence intensity ratio of matched sequence to one middle location base mismatched, two base mismatched, three middle base mismatched is (1.000+/-0.080):(0.4991+/-0.0671):(0.2360+/-0.0044):(0.0493+/-0.0033). Their relative accuracies were from 6.64 to 10.2%. This result might be used to rapidly screen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
