Free light chain mass spectrometry in diagnosis and monitoring of AL amyloidosis; T cells of AML patients in remission have distinct RNA signatures; and protective effect of ADAMTS13 in sickle cell mice depends on von Willebrand factor clearance

In this week's episode we’ll discuss the findings from a study assessing the utility of free light chain mass spectrometry in AL amyloidosis, learn more about distinct single-cell RNA-sequencing signatures of bone marrow T cells of AML patients in remission after an allogeneic stem cell transplant, and discuss why von Willebrand factor clearance is critical for the protective effect of ADAMTS13 in mice with sickle cell anemia.Articles featured in this episode: Clearance of VWF by hepatic macrophages is critical for the protective effect of ADAMTS13 in sickle cell anemia mice Complete responses in AL amyloidosis are unequal: the impact of free light chain mass spectrometry in AL amyloidosisThe remission status of patients with AML post-alloSCT is associated with a distinct single-cell bone marrow T-cell signature
