ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the significance of lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) in the disease progress of primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PGI-DLBCL).@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 43 patients diagnosed as PGI-DLBCL in our hospital from January 2011 to December 2015 were collected, and the disease progress was followed up.@*RESULTS@#According to the ROC curve, the threshold value of LMR for 2 years PFS (%) of PGI-DLBCL patients was 2.6. Unvariate analysis showed that LMR (P＜0.05), large enclosed mass lesion (P＜0.01) and IPI (P＜0.05) were prognostic factors affecting PFS, the COX regression model multivariate analysis showed that LMR＜2.6 [ (risk ratio (RR)=3.083, 95%CI 1.828-8.313, P＜0.01], and large enclosed mass lesions (RR=2.718, 95%CI 1.339-6.424, P＜0.05) were the independent adverse prognostic factor for two years PFS.@*CONCLUSION@#Both LMR＜2.6 and large enclosed mass lesions relate with the progress of PGI-DLBCL.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effects and its potential mechanism of asparaginase on proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cell lines.@*METHODS@#CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effect of asparaginase on proliferation of DLBCL cell lines. Flow cytometry was used to analyze cell cycle and apoptosis. Western blot was used to analyze apoptosis and its potential mechanism.@*RESULTS@#Asparaginase obviously inhibited the proliferation of multiple DLBCL cell lines and caused G/G cell arrest. Furtherly, asparaginase inhibited the expression of HIF-1α which related to poor prognosis of patients with DLBCL, up-regulated the expression of DR4 and caspase 8, reduce the expression of c-FLIP. Meanwhile, asparaginase induced the expression of pro-apoptotic protein BAX and inhibited the expression of anti-apoptotic protein MCL-1.@*CONCLUSION@#Asparaginase can inhibit the proliferation of DLBCL cell lines, cause the arrest of cells in G/G and induce apoptosis via the endogenous and exogenous apoptotic pathways.
