Methods 1o7 cases of B-cell lymphomas were studied uslng DNA extracted from rresh-frozen tissues. The DNA samples were amplified by PCR for bcl-2 MBR/JH. The products of bcl-2/JH rearrangement were hybridized with an internal olignucleotide probe or bcl-2 MBR. Results The rearranged bcl-2MBR/JH gene was detected in 13 of the 25(52. o% ) follicular center lymphomas, according to REAL classification: 8 of 11 (72. 7%) grade 1, 2 of 5(40. 0%) grade I, and 3 of 90 (33. 3%) grade, 17 of 82(2o. 8%) cases or difruse large B-cell lymphomas were found to have detectable bel-2 MBR/J. rearrangement- Conclusion The rrequency or bcl-2 MBR/JH rearrangement in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas is significantly lower than those in follicular center lympkomas(X2= 9. 28, P <o. oo5), suggesting that bcl2/JH rearrangements occur mainly in follicular center lymphomas. in addition, the result of reconstruction experiments suggest that amplification or bcl-2 MBR/JH rearrangements by PCR is both sensitive and specific for detection of t (14; 18 ) translocation.展开更多

In 16 patients with follicular lymphoma, the peripheral blood and bone marrow were PCR positive in 4 cases both at initial diagnosis and after complete remission. Conclusion: Detection of bcl-2 gene rearrangement by PCR provides a sensitive and specific assay of minimal residual disease. It is helpful to improve staging of disease, prognosis and evaluation of the treatment results.展开更多

Methods: TdT-mediated dUTP biotin Nick End labeling (TUNEL) and immuno-histochemistry ABC method were used to display apoptotic cells and the gene protein expression of bcl-2 and p53 independently. Results: Apoptotic indices (AI) in high-grade MALT lymphomas were significantly higher than in mixed-grade group and low-grade group (P<0.05). Bcl-2 was expressed in 83% of low-grade tumors, 61.6% of the median-grade tumors and 43.7% of high-grade tumors. An inverse correlation was observed between the expression of bcl-2 and apoptotic indices. Only 27 cases were p53 positive. The frequency of p53 positivity was significantly increased as the histologic grade advanced (P<0.05). There was also an inverse correlation between the expression of bcl-2 and p53. Conclusion: Apoptosis may be important in tumors development and transmission. p53 and bcl-2 were important regulatory genes of apoptosis and may be associated with transformation from low- grade to high-grade lymphomas.展开更多

Based on the random number table, all the patients were divided into a control group (n=42) and an observation group (n=42). The control group was treated with CVAD. The observation group was treated with rituximab on the basis of the control group. The effect of the patients was evaluated after 3 courses of treatment. The patients were followed up for 3 years after treatment. US RECIST 1.1 was used to evaluate the short-term efficacy on the patients;VEGF, TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) and B-cell lymphoma factor-6 (Bcl-6) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay;β2-MG level test was implemented to compare the short-term efficacy, biochemical indicators, incidence of toxic side effects and long-term survival rate of the two groups. Results: The short-term efficacy rate of the observation group was 76.19%, which was higher than that of the control group (50.00%) (P<0.05). The levels of VEGF, TRAF6, Bcl-6, andβ2-MG were lower in the observation group after 3 courses of treatment than that in the control group (P<0.05);there was no significant difference in the incidence of neutropenia, gastrointestinal reactions, sepsis, infection, infusion-related reactions and cardiovascular events between the observation group and the control group (P>0.05);The 1-year long-term survival rate after treatment was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The long-term survival rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group at 2 and 3 years after treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion: The combination of rituximab and CVAD in patients with primary gastrointestinal B-cell lymphoma can improve short-term efficacy, lower VEGF andβ2-MG levels, and lower incidence of side effects. It can improve the long-term survival rate of patients and is worthy of promotion and application.展开更多
