  1. RE: mastodon.social/@tazgetroete/1

    Eight-year-old Yannis has #leukaemia and needs a stem cell transplant. However, there are still far too few people of #African descent in the database.

    "We are particularly reaching out to people from #Burundi and East #Africa – please register!"
    DKMS (German Bone Marrow Donation Register)

    Can you register for a stem cell donation? Maybe you are his match. 🌈🍀

  3. Roundup isn’t just killing weeds – it’s now linked to leukaemia and tumours, even at levels regulators call “safe.”
    It’s in our food, water, and even our bodies. Still on sale. Still sprayed everywhere. Still defended by industry spin.
    How many more warnings before Roundup is banned?

  5. Chronic lymphocytic #leukaemia (#CLL): Superior performance of targeted combination therapy (ibrutinib and venetoclax) in large multicentric randomized trial. Much better than individual drugs or chemotherapy.

  6. I’ve #pinned my better half’s #link to her #WorldsGreatestShave #fundraiser for #Leukaemia

    If you have a couple of dollars it’d help. #auspol

    The site says #donate $60 or $35 but you can pay as little as you want.

    It accepted $11.65 (all my bank funds until my pension next Tuesday).

    I’ll unpin the post on Mar 29, 2025 (typo fixed)

  7. Not wanting to be the killjoy. Blinatomumab increases the treatment options for B-cell malignancies. However, it kills B-cell #leukaemia cells and healthy B-cells alike and is associated with significant toxicity. Nuance and realism are needed... #leukemia

  8. Gas hobs and cancer: “I’m hard-pressed to think of a more powerful chemical cause of leukemia than benzene,” said Jan Kirsch, a California-based oncologist who said that people had in their homes a “very potent” cause of blood cell cancers. theguardian.com/environment/20 I used to work with a man who said that gas shouldn't be in homes at all - it should be used to fuel electricity centrally #GasStovesDeadly #cancer #leukaemia

  10. A day of doing very little today. Mum tested positive for #COVID on Monday, and she’s “clinically extremely vulnerable” due to her comorbidities - primarily #leukaemia, but others too - and they’ve offered her #antivirals as a result, which she’s declined. So today I’ve mainly been worrying about her. Distracting myself with #Luther, although not very well.

    I have a number of things on my mind at the moment. I’m not sleeping well. I can’t quiet my brain.

  20. Base editing: therapy clears girl's incurable #cancer
    Her cancer was aggressive. #Chemotherapy, ana bone-marrow transplant, were unable to rid it from her body. She entered int#clinicaltrial where #geneediting was used on #Tcells to attack her #leukaemia

  21. Good morning from a frosty and foggy London. Top news on #BBCWorldService:

    British doctors have for the 1st time ever #successfully #treated an #incurable and aggressive form of #leukaemia with a #cell #engineering technique: They used #genetically #modified cells that are able to target and kill cancer cells without damaging healthy ones. After the experimental medicine the teenage patient was able to receive a bone marrow transplant restoring her immune system. She is now free of cancer.

  25. ✨ One step closer to a treatment for childhood leukemia ✨

    Pablo Menéndez Buján's research aims to provide new therapeutic options, hoping to cure childhood #leukaemia, or to make it a chronic disease rather than a fatal one.
