Background: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) with cardiac infiltration has a poor prognosis. The median OS of patients failing to respond to chemotherapy has been reported to be 1 month vs. 18 months in patients responding to chemotherapy.
Case Presentation: Herein, we reported a case of a 57-year-old male confirmed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who received radiation therapy of 150-cGy daily, administered in 30 fractions to the volume of cardiac infiltration, resulting in complete relief. Chemotherapy had no curative effect. The patient was subsequently enrolled in a clinical trial and received oral administration of zanubrutinib 80mg twice daily, after which he achieved complete remission. The progression-free survival was from diagnosis (January 7, 2020) to the follow-up (September 20, 2022), amounting to 32 months.
Conclusion: Proper irradiation dose and timing of treatment can relieve NHL symptoms.

Recent studies have suggested that sVEGFR3 is involved in cardiac diseases by regulating lymphangiogenesis; however, results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to investigate the function and mechanism of sVEGFR3 in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). sVEGFR3 effects were evaluated in vivo in mice subjected to MI/RI, and in vitro using HL-1 cells exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion.

Metabolic rewiring underlies effective macrophages defense to respond disease microenvironment. However, the underlying mechanisms driving metabolic rewiring to enhance macrophage effector functions remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated that the metabolic reprogramming in inflammatory macrophages depended on the acetylation of CLYBL, a citramalyl-CoA lyase, at lysine 154 (K154), and blocking CLYBL-K154 acetylation restricted the release of pro-inflammatory factors.

Background: Rheumatic heart disease (RHD), which is caused mainly by Group A Streptococcus, leads to fibrotic damage to heart valves. Recently, endothelial‒mesenchymal transition (EndMT), in which activin plays an important role, has been shown to be an important factor in RHD valvular injury. However, the mechanism of activin activity and EndMT in RHD valvular injury is not clear.

Astragali Radix (AR) and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma (NR) are frequently employed in cardiovascular disease treatment. However, the efficacy of the AR-NR medicine pair (AN) in improving cardiac remodeling and its underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate AN's cardioprotective effect and potential mechanism on cardiac remodeling using transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in mice and angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) and fibroblasts in vitro.

Cardiovascular complications resulting from cisplatin (CS) are a significant factor that can disrupt the treatment plan associated with this chemotherapy. This information led us to investigate the effectiveness of lutein (LT), which has antioxidant effects, in preventing CS-induced cardiotoxic effects. After 28 rats were randomly divided into four equal groups, saline (1ml/day) was administered to the control group, LT (100mg/kg/day) to the LT group, CS (10mg/kg) to the CS group, and active agents in the LT and CS groups were administered to the CS + LT group in the same dose and manner.
