Retrospective analysis of clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of primary breast diffuse large B-cell lymphoma / 中国肿瘤临床

To study the clinical and pathological characteristics and prognostic factors of primary breast diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PBDLBCL). Methods: Clinical and pathological data of 62 patients with PBDLBCL from January 2006 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for univariate analysis and the Cox regression model for multivari-ate analysis. Results: The 62 patients analyzed included women aged 26-71 years, with a median age of 47 years. Patients were fol-lowed up from 6 to 105 months; the 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 71.0%, and 5-year OS rate was 51.0%. The univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in the clinical stage, lactic acid dehydrogenase level, International Prognostic Index score, Myc/Bcl-2 protein expression, and chemotherapy regimen at 3 and 5 years associated with OS rates. The multivariate analysis showed that Myc/Bcl-2 protein expression was an independent prognostic factor of OS. Conclusions: Comprehensive treatment with chemo-therapy and radiotherapy is appropriate for PBDLBCL. Myc/Bcl-2 protein expression is an independent adverse prognostic factor for PB-DLBCL.

Advances of treatment for early stage extranodal nature killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type / 中国医师杂志

Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) (nasal type) is a special type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.This disease is highly aggressive with rapid progression and poor prognosis.It appears mostly in nasal cavity,most patients are in early stage,and the treatment outcome and prognosis are poor.There is no standard treatment scheme.Recently,L-asparaginase based chemotherapy shows good short-term effect and long-term survival in the treatment of localized extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma.This review will explore the advances of treatment for localized extranodal nature killer/T-cell lymphoma.

Objective To investigate the outcomes of unselected peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) patients treated with in-tensive first-line chemotherapy with high-dose therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT).Methods Here a nonrandom study was reported for 23 PTCL patients treated with first-line intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell trans-plantation and 23 PTCL patients treated with conventional chemotherapy during January in 2000 to 2011 .All patients had received E-CHOP for 6~8 cycles, and autologous stem cell transplantation group was administrated with intensive chemotherapy followed by ASCT after complete remission or partial remission .Results There was no statistically significant difference in short-term therapeutic effect between two groups( P >0.05), but the 5-year overall survival(OS) of autologous stem cell transplantation group( 58%) was higher than conventional chemotherapy group , as well as 5-year disease-free survival time (DFS) (45%in autologous stem cell transplanta-tion group, and 21%in conventional chemotherapy group ) with both statistical significance ( P <0.05).Only the incidence of Ⅳ° myelosuppression in autologous stem cell transplantation group ( 100%) was higher than that in conventional chemotherapy group ( 13%) ( P <0.01 ) .Conclusions First-line intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation for peripheral T cell lymphoma was quietly safe utility , it was better than conventional chemotherapy which would be considered as first -line method.

Clinical analysis of 82 cases of primary mediastinal large B cell lymphoma / 中华血液学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the clinical features and prognostic factors of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMLBCL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 82 patients with PMLBCL enrolled from January 2000 to January 2008 were retrospectively studied. All these patients were treated in four affiliated hospitals of Central South University,Hunan province. The prognostic factors were investigated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Of the 82 patients, 45 were men and 37 were women, the ratio was 1.22:1. The median age was 29.5 (ranged from 12 to 78) years old. There were 40 (48.78%) patients in stage I/II, 42 (51.22%) in stage III/IV. The complete response (CR) rate was 13.4% (11/82), and the overall response rate 76.83% (63/82). The 5-year overall survival was 58%. The univariate analysis indicated that the poor prognostic factors included stage III/IV(P=0.005), without rituximab (P=0.004), without radiotherapy (P=0.000), LDH ≥ ULN (upper limit of normal) (P=0.000), disease progression (P=0.000), international prognostic index (IPI)≥ 2 (P=0.000) and superior vena cava syndrome (P=0.015). Chemo-therapy alone (P=0.000) predicted poor outcome. Combination therapy (such as chemo-radiotherapy, chemotherapy combined with rituximab) had better prognosis. Compared to second-line treatment, rituximab as the first-line treatment can prolong PFS, but had no effect on the OS. In multivariate analysis, chemo-radiotherapy and IPI were independently related to prognosis.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PMLBCL mostly affects young adults, male patients were slightly more than female patients. It presents with a typical bulky mediastinal mass at diagnosis, which constricts surrounding organs. Patients treated with rituximab or radiation therapy had better prognosis. Rituximab is recommended to be used for the first-line treatment.</p>

Objective To prepare the mB7-1-GPI-anchored Lewis vaccine and investigate its antitumor effects. Methods mB7-1-GPI was incorporated on Lewis tumor cells and mB7-1-GPI-anchoring tumor vaccine was prepared. The anti-tumor immunity induced by the prepared mB7-1-GPI-anchored Lewis tumor cell vaccine in tumor-bearing mice was observed. Results Flow cytometric analysis showed that mB7-1-GPI were positively expressed on the surface of Lewis tumor cells. After Lewis tumor cells incubated with mB7-1-GPI, the positive rate (PR) of mB7-1 antigen was 95.8% (0h), 93.6% (4h), 91.1% (8h) and the fluorescence intensity (FI) was 11.2(0h), 10. 6(4h), 9. 8(8h). The IL-2 and IFN-γ production of splenic lymphocytes + lewis cells was (25.9 ± 1.4) pg/ml, (56. 0± 3. 5 ) pg/ml. The IL-2 and IFN-γ production of splenic lymphocytes + lewis/mB7-1-GPI was ( 871.3 ± 10. 4 ) pg/ml, ( 1329. 0 ± 11.9 ) pg/ml. In 25 days, the mean diameter of tumor of Lewis/mB7-1 -GPI was shorter than Lewis( 1.4 ± 0. 21 )cm & ( 2. 5 ± 0. 27 )cm , P ＜ 0. 05 ). Lewis tumor cell-bearing C57BL/6 mice treated with Lewis/mB7-1-GPI vaccine survived much longer than mice treated with Lewis vaccine ( 75.2 ± 2. 0 ) d & (40. 2 ± 2. 0 ) d ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion The Lewis tumor vaccine prepared with mB7-1-GPI fusion protein significantly inhibited the tumor growth in Lewis bearing mice. It represented an useful new strategy for attaching immunological factor onto tumor cell surfaces without genetic manipulation.

Gene transfer by a novel nonviral vector polyethylenimine / 生物医学工程学杂志

This study inquired about the influences on the gene delivery efficiency of polyethylenimine. pSVbeta plasmids were transferred into COS-7 and NIH3T3 cells with polyethylenimine. Influences of plasmids factor, albumin, serum, cell density, operation methods and polyethylenimine/DNA preserve factors on transfection efficiency were investigated. Inhibitors of biological activities in plasmids could be removed by ultrafiltration with cutoff molecular weight of 3000 or 10000. Linear plasmids lowered transfection efficiency. Serum and albumin in the culture medium decreased the transfection efficiency of polyethylenimine/DNA. Cell density was associated with PEI/DNA transfection efficiency. Incubation of PEI/DNA complexes with the cells for 8 h and then aspiration for removal of the complexes could obtain an optimal transfection effect. Freezing of PEI/DNA complexes significantly decreased transfection efficiency. In conclusion, polyethylenimine could obtain optimal and reduplicate transfection results by controlling related factors.
