Papillomaviruses are among the most widespread animal viruses, with many hosts harbouring multiple virus types. The present study aimed to evaluate the haematological and immunophenotypic profile of cattle infected with bovine papillomavirus (BPV). Blood samples were collected from 10 animals with clinical cutaneous BPV and without clinical papillomatosis (control). Haematological analysis demonstrated a significant reduction in haemoglobin and haematocrit for BPV-infected animals. The results also showed an increase of natural killer cells and a decrease of γδ T-cells and the CD4/CD8 ratio for the BPV group when compared to the control group. The infection was also found to stimulate a pro-inflammatory profile with the participation of CD8T cells producing elevated IFN-γ and IL-17. These findings, although preliminary, provide a better understanding of the immune response of cattle infected with BPV.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) can rarely transform into Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM), posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The diagnosis of WM requires bone marrow infiltration by lymphoplasmacytic cells and the presence of IgM gammopathy. Immunophenotypic markers include FMC7+, CD19+, CD20+, and CD138+.

Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm(BPDCN)is an extremely rare invasive tumor with poor prognosis.The common clinical manifestations of BPDCN include skin injury,bone marrow involvement,and tumor cell spread.BPDCN is often misdiagnosed as other diseases and its diagnosis often requires a combination of clinical manifestations,imaging,histology,and immunophenotyping.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is an aggressive neoplasm derived from B and/or T cell lineage (B-ALL; T-ALL). For the first time, this study describes, cytogenetically, the karyotypic alterations in adults with ALL in the northern region of Brazil and their relationship with hematological and biochemical characteristics. Through banding analyses, immunophenotyping, as well as hematological and biochemical examination data obtained directly from patients' records, we found that chromosome 21 aneuploidy was the most frequent.

This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with acute leukemia in the plateau. The clinical information of patients diagnosed with acute leukemia from February 2010 to April 2023 at the People's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region was reviewed and collected, including blood cell count, morphology, immunophenotype, cytogenetics, and molecular data. Survival analysis was conducted to analyze the outcome of patients with acute leukemia.

Background: Lymphoma is a common hematological malignancy with diverse morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics that may affect treatment and outcomes. Thus, accurate differential diagnosis is crucial, and molecular genetic testing is valuable. We aimed to investigate the genetic characteristics of Korean patients with lymphoma using a next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based targeted panel.
