Comparative investigation of subpopulations and functional properties of lymphocytes isolated from the tumour tissue (TTL) as well as of lymphocytes of the peripheral blood (PBL) of 11 lung cancer patients and 18 breast cancer patients has shown that an increase in the quantity of theophylline-sensitive cells (suppressors and killers) is characteristic of TTL. After 20 hours of incubation of the mixture of the studied lymphocytes and sheep erythrocytes at 4 degrees C an increase in the number of E-RFC proved to be more intensive for TTL than for PBL. The result obtained may suggest the blocking of the superficial receptors of TTL to sheep erythrocytes.

Background: Erlotinib is a potent first-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Due to its proximity to the upper limit of tolerability, dose adjustments are often necessary to manage potential adverse reactions resulting from its pharmacokinetic (PK) variability.

Methods: Population PK studies of erlotinib were identified using PubMed databases.

Lymphoma is a malignant cancer characterized by a rapidly increasing incidence, complex etiology, and lack of obvious early symptoms. Efficient theranostics of lymphoma is of great significance in improving patient outcomes, empowering informed decision-making, and driving medical innovation. Herein, we developed a multifunctional nanoplatform for precise optical imaging and therapy of lymphoma based on a new photosensitizer (1-oxo-1-benzoo[de]anthracene-2,3-dicarbonitrile-triphenylamine (OBADC-TPA)).
