T-cell lymphoma (TCL) is a group of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with high heterogeneity and unfavorable prognosis. Current standard treatments have demonstrated limited efficacy in improving the outcomes for TCL patients. Therefore, identification of novel drug targets is urgently needed to improve the prognosis of TCL patients.

N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) modification, catalyzed by the N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10), was a novel type of chemical modification that improves translation efficiency and mRNA stability.
Methods: GEO databases and clinical samples were used to explore the expression and clinical value of NAT10 in DLBCL.
Introduction: Condensin, a family of structural maintenance of chromosome complexes, has been shown to regulate chromosome compaction and segregation during mitosis. NCAPD3, a HEAT-repeat subunit of condensin II, plays a dominant role in condensin-mediated chromosome dynamics but remains unexplored in lymphoma.
Objectives: The study aims to unravel the molecular function and mechanism of NCAPD3 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Introduction: Epigenetic alterations play crucial roles in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Disturbances in lipid metabolism contribute to tumor progression. However, studies in epigenetics, especially its critical regulator YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 2 (YTHDF2), on lipid metabolism regulation in DLBCL are unidentified.

A type of epigenetic regulation known as histone acetylation plays a crucial role in transcriptional regulation in eukaryotic cells. Specifically, a significant effect of histone acetylation modifications on the abnormal progression and microenvironment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has been observed.

As the sensor of cytosolic DNA, the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway plays a critical role in regulating anti-tumor immunity and cell death. However, the role and regulatory mechanisms of STING in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are still undefined.

Dysregulation of glutamine metabolism is essential for tumorigenesis, microenvironment remodeling, and therapeutic resistance. Based on the untargeted metabolomics sequencing, we identified that the glutamine metabolic pathway was up-regulated in the serum of patients with primary DLBCL.

However, the function of m6A modification mediated by KIAA1429 [alias virus-like m6A methyltransferase-associated protein (VIRMA)] during the progression of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remains undefined.
Methods: The expression and clinical significance of KIAA1429 were verified by our clinical data.
Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), an arachidonic acid metabolite, has been implicated in allergic responses, parasitic infection and tumor development. The biological functions and molecular mechanisms of PGD2 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are still undefined. In this study, we firstly found the high concentration of serum PGD2 and low expression of PGD2 receptor CRTH2 in DLBCL, which were associated with clinical features and prognosis of DLBCL patients.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFDiffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with high clinical heterogeneity and poor prognosis. Immune escape mediated by CD47 overexpression contributes to the limited efficacy of rituximab, an anti-CD20 antibody, which indicates a target to improve the efficacy of DLBCL treatment. Here, we validated berberine, a natural compound, as a suppressor of CD47 and revealed the involved mechanism and biological function in DLBCL.
