ObjectiveTo investigate the proliferation and apoptosis effects of adenovirus-mediated interleukin-24 (Ad-IL-24) gene on Karpas299 cells in vitro. MethodsThe Karpas299 cells were divided into blank control group, Ad-IL-24 group, and the adenovirus which carrying green fluorescent protein gene group (Ad-GFP group). Karpas299 cells of Ad-IL-24 group were infected by adding 200.0 μL Ad-IL-24, Karpas299 cells of Ad-GFP group were infected by adding 200.0 μL Ad-GFP, but Karpas299 cells of blank control group were treated by adding 200.0 μL PBS. Cells' proliferation inhibition rates of 3 groups were detected by cell counting kit (CCK-8) method at 12, 24, and 48 hours after treatment, respectively, and the cells' apoptosis rates of 3 groups were detected by flow cytometry at 48 hours after treatment. ResultsAd-IL-24 can suppress the growth of Karpas299 cells, and the inhibition rate increased over time. Compared with Ad-GFP group at the same time, the cell' proliferation inhibition rate of Ad-IL-24 group was higher at 12, 24, and 48 hours after treatment (P<0.05). In addition, the cells' apoptosis rate of Ad-IL-24 group was higher than those of Ad-GFP group and blank control group at 48 hours after treatment (P<0.05). ConclusionAd-IL-24 can suppress the growth of Karpas299 cells and induce the apoptosis of it.
Objective To analyze the potential causal relationship between sunscreen/ultraviolet protection and the risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma using a two sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study method. Methods The summary data of genome-wide association study was used to select three types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, namely diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma, T/NK cell lymphoma, and sunscreen/ultraviolet protection highly correlated genetic loci, namely single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), as instrumental variables. The reverse variance weighting method was used as the main method for MR analysis, MR Egger and MR-PRESO were used to detect level pleiotropy, and leave-one-out method was used for sensitivity analysis to ensure the robustness of the results. Results A total of 132 SNPs were included in the analysis. The results of the inverse variance weighted analysis showed that sunscreen/ultraviolet protection increased the incidence of DLBCL [odds ratio=2.439, 95% confidence interval (1.109, 5.362), P=0.027]. The heterogeneity test results showed that there was no heterogeneity in the causal relationship between sunscreen/ultraviolet protection and DLBCL (P>0.05). The results of the horizontal pleiotropy test showed that SNP did not exhibit horizontal pleiotropy (P>0.05). The leave-one-out method showed that no SNP with a significant impact on the results was found. There was no causal relationship between sunscreen/ultraviolet protection and follicular lymphoma and T/NK cell lymphoma. Conclusion There is a positive causal relationship between sunscreen/ultraviolet protection and the incidence of DLBCL.
Objective To sum up experiences in diagnosis and treatment for thyroid malignancy. Methods Clinical records of 8 patients diagnosed as Hashimoto’s disease associated with thyroid malignancy by histologic examination at our hospital from Jan. 1998 to Dec. 1998 were analyzed. Results There were 1 male and 7 females with average age of 37.6 years. The incidence of Hashimoto’s disease associated with thyroid cancer and malignant lymphoma were 7.7% and 2.6%, respectively. No operative mortality and complication was found. Conclusion Hashimoto’s disease is not uncommon. The combined thyroid cancer is small with papillary carcinoma predominance and the prognosis is good. If it is complicated with malignant lymphoma, the thyroid is rapidly enlarged with pain and dyspnea.

Methods The clinical data of 17 patients with the primary intestinal non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma perforation from January 1999 to December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Nine patients had intestinal B-cell lymphoma, and eight had intestinal T-cell lymphoma. The sites of perforation were as follows: colon and rectum in 7 (41.2%), ileum and jejunum in 7 (41.2%), and ileocecal junction in 3 (17.6%). All patients had undergone the operations. The disease was not diagnosed before the operation in all of the patients except for the Two patients had a history of systemic chemotherapy before perforation. A total of 14 patients were followed up, in whom six died within three months after the operation; the survival rate 1, 2, and 3 years after the operation was 41.2%, 23.6%, and 11.7%, respectively in seven patients who had undergone the systemic chemotherapy before the operation; one patients lived more than 5 years. Conclusion The diagnosis of primary colonic malignant lymphoma perforation is difficult; the prognosis is miserable.
ObjectiveTo study the clinical and pathological characteristics and imaging manifestations of pulmonary mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma.MethodsThe clinical and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) imaging data of 17 patients with pathological proven pulmonary MALT lymphoma were reviewed retrospectively.ResultsThe MDCT manifestations were divided into 4 types: ① pneumonia/consolidation, ② mass/nodule type, ③ bronchovascular lymphatic type, ④ mixed type. The imaging features included air bronchiectasis in 13 cases and bronchiectasis in 9 cases. Multiple small pulmonary nodules were found in 11 cases, ground glass opacity in 9 cases, 4 cases of pleural effusion, pulmonary hilar and mediastinal lymph node enlargement in 3 cases. Among these 17 cases, 4 had extra-pulmonary involvement and 2 without obvious symptoms. The main clinical symptoms including cough, expectoration, dyspnea, fever, chest pain, hemoptysis, night sweats. The pathological manifestation is the infiltration of a large number of B lymphocytes and nuclear heterocells.ConclusionsThe clinical manifestations of pulmonary MALT lymphoma are not specific, but the progress is slow, and may be associated with autoimmune diseases. The main MDCT findings of pulmonary MALT lymphoma include consolidation, nodules or masses with air bronchogram. Lymph node enlargement is rare. Clinical diagnosis should also be based on pathological results.
Primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL) is one of the most common type of primary intraocular lymphoma. The current treatment options include local ocular radiotherapy (radiotherapy), systemic chemotherapy (chemotherapy), local ocular chemotherapy, and combination therapy. The treatment options are different at different stages of PVRL, however, there is no uniform treatment guideline. Local ocular chemotherapy can make the drug reach effective therapeutic concentration in the eye, and it can be repeated many times. At the same time, it can avoid the adverse reactions caused by systemic medication or radiotherapy. It is an ideal choice for relieving ocular symptoms. At present, the mainstream ocular local chemotherapeutics are methotrexate (MTX) and rituximab (RTX). The basic consensus about the intravitreal injection of MTX (IVM) is the induction-consolidation-maintenance model, however, the time of each stage and frequency of IVM are diverse. The time interval of intravitreal injection of RTX is also variable, ranging from 1 time/week to 1 time/months and so on. Corneal epithelial lesions caused by frequent MTX injections and the higher recurrence rate after RTX treatment are the main reasons for changing the treatment plan. For patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma and PVRL, combined treatment with neurology department is necessary to save patient's lives, ophthalmology treatment relieves ocular symptoms and improves the patient's quality of life. For patients with PVRL alone without central nervous system involvement, ophthalmology treatment is necessary to control patient's eye symptoms, and close follow-up should be followed to find the involvement of the central nervous system in time, and then combined with neurological treatment to save patient’s lives.
