Simian-immunodeficiency-virus(SIV)-infected cynomolgus monkeys develop B-cell lymphomas in approximately one third of the cases. We have now studied the expression of cynomolgus-Epstein-Barr-virus(cyno-EBV) nuclear antigens in 13 cyno-EBV-carrying SIVsm-associated monkey lymphomas and established cell lines from 3 of these tumors. Immunoblots of cell lysates were probed with polyspecific and monospecific reagents directed against human EB-virus EBNAI-6, and against the membrane protein LMPI. An EBNA2-cross-reacting protein was demonstrated in 8 lymphoma tissues (8/13) and in the 3 cell lines derived from the tumors. All tumors expressed a polypeptide with 50 to 55 kDa molecular weight, which cross-reacted with some antibodies to EBNAI. Absorption experiments with normal monkey tissue showed that this polypeptide was specific for the cyno-EBV-carrying lymphoma cells. Equivalents of EBNA3-6 and LMPI could not be detected. Immunophenotypical characterization showed that the monkey lymphomas were similar to human HIV-associated B-cell lymphomas. Malignant B-cell lymphomas in experimentally SIVsm-infected cynomolgus monkeys can be a model for EBV-associated lymphomagenesis in immunodeficiency states.

Introduction: Data on the optimal management of patients with hematologic malignancies and chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) are lacking, particularly for multiday chemotherapy regimens. We report our institutional experience in patients with B-cell lymphoma receiving multiday dose-adjusted R-EPOCH chemotherapy utilizing two CINV prophylaxis strategies.
Methods: We performed a retrospective, single-center, cohort study evaluating hospitalized patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma receiving DA-R-EPOCH (April 2016 to October 2022).

Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL), including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), Burkitt lymphoma (BL), and follicular lymphoma (FL), predominantly arise from B cells undergoing germinal center (GC) reactions. The transcriptional repressor B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) is indispensable for GC formation and contributes to lymphomagenesis via its BTB domain-mediated suppression of target genes. Dysregulation of BCL6 underpins the pathogenesis of GC-derived NHL.

Prizloncabtagene autoleucel (prizlon-cel), a novel bispecific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell, targets and eliminates CD19/CD20 positive tumor cells. This phase 1, open-label study investigated the safety and efficacy of prizlon-cel in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (r/r B-NHL). Patients with CD19 and/or CD20-positive r/r B-NHL received a 3-day lymphodepletion (cyclophosphamide: 300 mg/m2/d; fludarabine: 30 mg/m2/d) followed by an intravenous dose of prizlon-cel.

This study was designed to evaluate the dose-dependent efficacy of neurotensin receptor-1 (NTSR1) agonist PD149163 in the amelioration of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced apoptosis in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of mice. PD149163 is an analogue of NTS, a GIT tri-decapeptide with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. Swiss-albino mice (female/8 weeks/25 ± 2.

Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is an HIV-associated B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) caused by Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV). There is no validated prognostic model in PEL, and prognosis is thought to be poor compared to other HIV-associated NHL. We derived the PEL-Prognostic score (PEL-PS) from an international real-world training set of 59 patients with HIV-associated PEL who received first-line anthracycline-containing chemotherapy from the HIV and AIDS Malignancy Branch at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in the United States and the National Center for HIV Malignancy at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital (CWH) in England from 2000 to 2022.
