Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), an aggressive cancer of the B cells, is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) worldwide. In China, the cases of DLBCL increase yearly. C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) has been implicated in the migration and trafficking of malignant B cells in several hematological malignancies, and only a few reports have been published on the role of CXCR4 in the metastasis of DLBCL. This review summarizes the relevant perspectives on the functional mechanism, prognostic significance, and therapeutic applications of the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis in DLBCL, in particular DLBCL with bone marrow involvement.

Colon neoplasia is one of the major malignancies in industrialized countries due to their Western-style food habits. It accounts for more than 50% of the population developing adenomatous polyps by the age of 70 years, but 10% of cancers in developed countries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the pathological role of the C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4/stromal-derived factor 1 axis (CXCR4-SDF-1 axis), and the inhibitory molecules PD-1 and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) in postoperative colon cancer patients undergoing treatment with chemotherapy (oxaliplatin and capecitabine) and estimate the correlation between these studied factors to deeply understand the basic mechanisms and potential diagnostic or therapeutic effects.

Aim: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent malignancies, which is commonly treated with curative surgical resection, often leading to intraoperative hypothermia. Therefore, this study aimed to compare and analyze the risk factors for intraoperative hypothermia associated with laparoscopic and open CRC resections under general anesthesia.

Methods: This study included 120 CRC patients admitted between January 2023 and January 2024.

Numerous studies have demonstrated that the high expression of CXC motif chemokine ligand 16 (CXCL16) in cancer correlates with poor prognosis, as well as tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. While CXCL16 can serve as a tumor biomarker, the underlying mechanism in modulating head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains unclear. In this study, the aimed was to investigate the CXCL16 expression in HNSCC and to uncover the potential underlying mechanism.

To determine correlation between the Extended Disability Status Scale(EDSS) grade and the progression of neuromyelitis optica(NMO) patients' levels of the chemokine CXC ligand 13 (CXCL13) in their serum and cerebrospinal fluid. This research included forty-one patients diagnosed with neuromyelitis optica(NMO) and forty-three patients diagnosed with multiple sclerosis(MS). The control group consisted of forty-three non-inflammatory neurological disease(NND) patients.
