RESUMEN
Acute leukaemia is a group of aggressive malignancies with a high mortality rate. The reduction in functional immune cells due to the disease itself and radiotherapy/chemotherapy makes the patients susceptible to co-infections, of which pulmonary infection is a major cause of death. Early accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment may prevent the spread of infection in patients with acute leukaemia complicated with pulmonary infection, thus reduce serious complications such as sepsis, respiratory failure and multi-organ failure. However, there are still clinical difficulties in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary infections in acute leukemia patients. Therefore, the current research advances in the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial, fungal and viral infections in the lungs of patients with acute leukemia were briefly summarized in this review.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant proliferative disease of plasma cells. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) play an important role in the progression of MM. Compared with normal donor derived MSC (ND-MSC), MM patients derived MSC (MM-MSC) exhibit abnormalities in genes, signaling pathways, protein expression levels and cytokines secreted by themselves. Moreover, the exosomes of MM-MSC can interact with the bone marrow microenvironment. The above reasons can lead to MM cell proliferation, chemoresistance, impaired osteogenic differentiation of MM-MSC, and affect the immunomodulatory capacity of MM patients. In order to further understand the pathogenesis and related influencing factors of MM, this paper reviews the latest research progress of MM-MSC.

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematological malignancies. Currently, in addition to demethylated chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, MDS patient-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MDS-MSC) play an important role in understanding the pathogenesis of MDS and related therapeutic targets. For example, abnormal expression of DICER1 gene, abnormalities of PI3K/AKT and Wnt/ß-catenin signaling pathways provide new therapeutic targets for MDS. In addition, MDS-MSC is also affected by abnormal microenvironment of the body, such as inflammatory factor S100A9, as well as hypercoagulation and iron overload. In this review, genes, signaling pathways, cytokines, hematopoietic microenvironment, and the effect of therapeutic drugs for MDS-MSC were briefly summarized.
