Purpose: To study the immunophenotype and the expression of cytotoxic granule proteins of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma and its significance. Methods: 44 cases of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma were studied by the two-step method of DAKO EnVisionTM using a series of antibodies including CD3, CD20, CD43, CD45, CEI45RO, CD56, CD57, CD79?, TIA-1, granzyme-B and perform. Results: All the cases of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma were CD45 positive. 43% of the cases expressed CD3 with positive signal located in the cytoplasm, which was different from peripheral T cell lymphoma. 45% and 52% of the cases were CD43 and CD45RO positive respectively. Cases that reacted to CD56 accounted for 52% of the cases, 43% of which were also positive to CD3. Concerning the reactions to both CD3 and CD56, 10 cases showed CD3 + CD56 + , 13 showed CD3-CD56 + , 9 were CD3 + CD56- and 12 were CD3-CD56-. None of the 44 cases showed positive reaction to CD20, CD79? and CD57. All cases were reactive to TIA-1. 93% and 95% of the cases showed the reactions to granzyme-B and perform. All the controls were negative to TIA-1, granzyme-B and perform. Conclusions: The immunophenotypes of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma showed less consistency. CD56 was not always positive in the cases of this tumor. The different locations of the positive signal to CD3 showed that the cell lineage of this tumor was different from T lymphocytes. The high frequency of the staining by cytotoxic granule proteins, TIA-1, granzyme-B and perform, showed that these cells may have originated from NK cells. The distinctive differences in immunohistochemical staining of cytotoxic granule proteins in nasal NK/T cell lymphoma make their detection very useful and important in diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Background and purpose:In in vivo and vitro studies, Rhodiola shows anti-cancer effect, but there were few reports about the effects of Rhodiola on growth of breast cancer and its possible mechanism. Methods:Xenograft of Human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-435 in female BALB/c nude mice were treated with and without Rhodiola extracts. The tumor volume and proliferation index (PCNA and Ki67) of the xenograft were studied.Results:After Rhodiola was given to nude mice for 4 weeks, the mean tumor volume was smaller (99.95mm 3 vs. 174.60mm 3 ) compared to untreated group,but there was no statistical significance(P=0.535). The proportion and intensity of cellular Ki-67 staining in Xenografts were decreased as compared to the untreated group, (average H-score 152.8 vs. 86, P=0.014), the same trend could be found for cellular PCNA staining, but there was no statistical significance(242 vs.210,P=0.221).Conclusions:The mechanism of anti-cancer effect of Rhodiola may be partly through inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells in vivo.

Objective To study the expression of BCL10 and associated chromosomal aberration in primary cutaneous marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (PCMZL). Methods Tissue specimens were collected from 17 patients with PCMZL. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of BCL10. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed to examine the presence of API2-MALT1 fusion gene and chromosomal aberration in BCL10, MALT1 as well as IgH genes in these cases. Results Of these patients,94.1% (16/17) expressed BCL10 protein. The cytoplasmic expression of BCL10 was observed in 64.7% (11/17) of the patients, and nuclear expression in 29.4% (5/17). As shown by FISH test, neither API2-MALT1 fusion gene nor chromosomal aberration in BCL10, MALT1 or IgH genes was present in these patients. Conclusions Compared with MALT lymphomas originating from tissues other than skin, PCMZL is uncommonly associated with chromosomal abnormalities; it is possible that there are unknown factors contributing to its tumorigenesis. Nuclear BCL10 is unrelated to the presence of chromosomal aberration in BCL10, MALT1 or IgH genes. Further follow-up is required to clarify the association between nucle ar BCL10 and poor prognosis of PCMZL.
