Published: September 2016

Objective: The aberrant expression of CD5 in both HCL and HCL-v is a very rare event. Although a number of CD5 positive HCL and HCL-v cases have been reported, but these are far and few in between. We aimed to review the reported cases of CD5 positive HCL and its variant.

Method: We hereby report a case of CD5 positive HCL, with variations in PIK3CA and PDGFRA gene, along with a brief review of literature of the cases of CD5 positive HCL and its variant.

Results And Conclusion: The current case was positive for CD103, CD11c, CD25, and CD123 which has led the diagnosis to be of typical HCL. With the extensive literature review we found that only 26 cases of hairy cell leukemia [HCL and HCL-v] bearing CD5 expression have been reported so far. The positivity of CD5 is more common in HCL-v as compared to HCL. Additional prospective studies of CD5+ HCL and its variants are required to show whether they are a clinically significant subgroup of lymphoid malignancies. © 2016 International Clinical Cytometry Society.

The occurrence and progression of breast cancer (BCa) are complex processes involving multiple factors and multiple steps. The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays an important role in this process, but the functions of immune components and stromal components in the TME require further elucidation. In this study, we obtained the RNA-seq data of 1086 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

BACKGROUND Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCL) are a multifaceted spectrum of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) and cutaneous B cell lymphomas (CBCL). Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a rare subset of CTCL that primarily affects adults, and its occurrence in children is exceedingly rare. Most pediatric MF manifests as hypopigmented patches resembling other benign dermatoses, causing diagnostic challenges.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a severe gastrointestinal condition with an increasing incidence of hyperlipidemic etiology. The investigation employed a two-sample, bidirectional Mendelian randomization method to investigate potential causal relationship between lipidome profiles, inflammatory mediators, and AP. Exploration of genetic variants across the genome in a study population of 10,630 AP cases and 844,679 non-AP individuals revealed multiple lipidome entities significantly associated with AP risk.
