(123)I-Iodo-alpha-methyltyrosine (IMT) transport into lymphomas has not been fully characterized. In rat Nb2-11C and Nb2-Sp lymphoma cell lines, linear uptake of (123)I-IMT occurred rapidly within 5-10 min. Eadie-Hoftee plots of (123)I-IMT uptake gave apparent Km's of 8.34+/-1.17 and 9.64+/-1.05 microM for Nb2-11C and Nb2-Sp cells, respectively, and involved the L and B(0,+) systems. In lymphoma-bearing rats, injected (123)I-IMT accumulated rapidly in the primary tumors but gave a low tumor-to-background ratio of 2:1. (123)I-IMT was transported rapidly into lymphoma cells both in vitro and in vivo, but low target-to-nontarget ratio may not make (123)I-IMT practical for scanning in vivo.

Background: Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is a common, yet highly efficient, cellular immunotherapy for lymphoma. However, many recent studies have reported on its cardiovascular (CV) toxicity. This study analyzes the cardiotoxicity of CD19 CAR T cell therapy in the treatment of lymphoma for providing a more valuable reference for clinicians.

In this issue of Molecular Cell, Gambi, Boccalatte, Hernaez, et al. apply multiomics followed by genetic engineering to define then characterize epigenetic hubs that regulate processes crucial for T-ALL and use this insight to offer new avenues for therapeutic targeting.

Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells represent a promising approach for cancer immunotherapy, yet their efficacy is hindered by immunosuppressive signals in the tumor microenvironment. Casitas B-cell lymphoma protein b (Cbl-b) is a key negative regulator of T cell function. This study investigated whether inhibiting Cbl-b enhances the antitumor activity of human CAR-T cells.

Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is a rare and aggressive B-cell lymphoma typically associated with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) and Epstein-Barr virus infections. It classically presents as a malignant effusion in body cavities, but rarely presents with an extracavitary variant characterized by solid tumors in lymph nodes or extranodal sites such as the gastrointestinal tract, skin, lungs, and nervous system. This case report describes an unusual presentation of primary cutaneous extracavitary PEL in an HIV-positive patient that has only been reported in 8 cases previously.

While the latest WHO classification of hematological neoplasms helps refine the diagnostic criteria for anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL), their diagnosis can still be challenging. This retrospective series of 10 ALCL cases illustrates the cytological appearance and immunological profile obtained through flow cytometry (FCM) from various sample types, including lymph node biopsies (LN), peripheral blood (PB), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and pleural fluid (PF). ALCL exhibits a polymorphic cytological appearance, ranging from "doughnut" cells to Hodgkin-like cells, very large cells, and small cells, with this polymorphism being particularly pronounced in ALK (-) forms.
