The prognostic nutritional index, an independent predictor of overall survival for newly diagnosed follicular lymphoma in China.

Objective: The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is an important prognostic factor for survival outcomes in various hematological malignancies. The current study focused on exploring the predictive value of the PNI in newly diagnosed follicular lymphoma (FL) in China.

Materials And Methods: The clinical indicators and follow-up data of 176 patients who received chemotherapy or immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy with FL in our hospital from January 2016 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.

Real-world evidence of ABVD-like regimens compared with ABVD in classical Hodgkin lymphoma: a 10-year study from China.

Background: Doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) has been regarded as the standard treatment regimen for classical Hodgkin lymphoma. In recent years, ABVD-like regimens, which emerged due to shortages and the lung toxicity of bleomycin or the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors and antibody-drug conjugates, may be favorable, but have not yet been tested.

Methods: We compared the outcomes of ABVD with ABVD-like regimens, which include bleomycin was completely or partially omitted; meanwhile, etoposide or PD-1 inhibitors were added.

Clinical and Molecular Characteristics of 60 Patients With Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Negative Castleman Disease.

Castleman disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is a key regulator of various cellular functions, which may be related with the potential mechanisms of CD occurrence. We retrospectively collected the clinical information of 60 CD patients diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.

Suppression of latent transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)-binding protein 1 (LTBP1) inhibits natural killer/ T cell lymphoma progression by inactivating the TGF-β/Smad and p38 pathways.

Background: Natural killer/T cell lymphoma (NKTCL) is a distinct subtype of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with highly aggressive clinical behavior. We aim to investigate the function of Latent transforming growth factor β binding protein 1 (LTBP1) and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-β1) and complex molecular pathogenesis of this disease.

Methods: NKTCL patients and reactive lymph nodes patients were recruited in this study.

GPNMB promotes the progression of diffuse large B cell lymphoma via YAP1-mediated activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Glycoprotein non-metastatic melanoma protein B (GPNMB) has been confirmed to be related to the pathogenesis of tumors. However, the potential impact of GPNMB on the progression of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is unclear. In this study, the expression levels of GPNMB and Yes-associated protein (YAP) were analyzed using qRT-PCT and Western blot assay.
