During the course of this investigation, valuable data were obtained concerning RUNX1 gene mutation frequencies in different clinical, morphological, and cytogenetic groups of patients with myeloid malignancies, and its cooperation with other molecular aberrations.

Our study affords new information concerning CRD and T cell subsets that differentiate or are maintained in the absence of B cells in children with XLA. T cell's homeostasis depends on the presence of chronic respiratory disease that may be caused by the delay in diagnosis.

The COVID−19 pandemic not only resulted in a global crisis, but also accelerated vaccine development and antibody discovery. Herein we report a synthetic humanized VHH library development pipeline for nanomolar-range affinity VHH binders to SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VoC) receptor binding domains (RBD) isolation. Trinucleotide-based randomization of CDRs by Kunkel mutagenesis with the subsequent rolling-cycle amplification resulted in more than 1011 diverse phage display library in a manageable for a single person number of electroporation reactions. We identified a number of nanomolar-range affinity VHH binders to SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VoC) receptor binding domains (RBD) by screening a novel synthetic humanized antibody library. In order to explore the most robust and fast method for affinity improvement, we performed affinity maturation by CDR1 and CDR2 shuffling and avidity engineering by multivalent trimeric VHH fusion protein construction. As a result, H7-Fc and G12x3-Fc binders were developed with the affinities in nM and pM range respectively. Importantly, these affinities are weakly influenced by most of SARS-CoV-2 VoC mutations and they retain moderate binding to BA.4\5. The plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT) resulted in IC50 = 100 ng\ml and 9.6 ng\ml for H7-Fc and G12x3-Fc antibodies, respectively, for the emerging Omicron BA.1 variant. Therefore, these VHH could expand the present landscape of SARS-CoV-2 neutralization binders with the therapeutic potential for present and future SARS-CoV-2 variants.

We propose SH2D1A mutational screening be considered in male patients with or without hypogammaglobulinemia who received rituximab treatment for lymphoma and did not recover immunoglobulin G in a year after B-depleting therapy.
