Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK+) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare subtype of DLBCL. ALK+DLBCL has a characteristic immunoblastic/plasmablastic morphology, a distinct immunophenotypic profile, and recurrent cytoge-netic/molecular genetic abnormalities. The occurrence of this type of lymphoma has been reported in both adult and pediatric popula-tions. Although rare, this new entity should be recognized because most cases follow an aggressive clinical course with a poor progno-sis. The response of ALK+DLBCL to conventional chemotherapy is poor. The recently discovered small molecule ALK inhibitor may provide a potential therapeutic option for patients with this disease.

ObjectiveTo explore clinical characteristics and diagnosis of patients with granulocytic sarcoma (GS),and to evaluate the value of FCM in diagnosing it.MethodsClinical data of one patient with GS was reviewed and related literature was reviewed. ResultsThe patient was diagnosed as AML-M2,chromosomal karyotype was 46.XY, t (8;21)(q22;q22)and the AML/ETO gene was positive. Systemic chemotherapy with daunorubicin plus cytarabine was given and complete remission was received. Then a nodular in medial angle of right eye was found. Result of CT indicated the possibility of leukemia infiltration.Needle aspiration cytology was conducted and many blast cells were found by microscope.CD34+ CD117+ CD13+ CD33+CD45dim SSC+ can be found by FCM. The cytology was complete remission and minimal residual disease was negative. Finally diagnosis was GS, relapse of AML. After a systemic chemotherapy with large dose of cytarabine plus teniposide (cytarabine 6.0 g/d, d1-3;teniposide 50 mg/d, d1-3), the mass could not be touched and the follow-up was continued.Conclusion Although relapse of AML often occurs in the testicle or the central nervous system,it pay attention to the possibility of relapse of AML presenting as GS.Fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC)combined with FCM can provide an convenient, handy, practicable and less invasive way of the diagnosis and can be a preferred detection technique.

Objective:The occurrence of numerous tumors, particularly classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (CHL), is related with Ep-stein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. However, the incidence of CHL and its association with EBV varies significantly with ethnicity, geo-graphic location, sex, and age. This study investigated the association of EBV infection with CHL in Northern Chinese Han population. Methods:EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER) was detected in 136 cases of CHL through in situ hybridization. Results:A total of 37 cas-es were EBER positive (28%). The mixed cellularity (MC) subtype had the highest positive EBER rate of 49%(23/47;P<0.001), fol-lowed by lymphocyte-rich subtype with 30%(3/10), nodular sclerosis (NS) subtype with 14%(10/73), and 1ymphocyte depletion with 0%(0/2). Our study identified a single age distribution in the third decade. Moreover, NS subtype showed an evident single peak in the third decade. However, MC subtype had a lower peak in the fifth decade. The incidence of EBER showed a bimodal age distribution with two peaks in the first and fifth decades (21.6%and 24.3%, respectively). Conclusion:CHL in Northern Chinese Han population was associated with EBV infection, particularly the MC subtype.

Objective To investigate AXIN2 mRNA expression level in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) , and to analyze the effect of AXIN2 gene methylation status on its mRNA expression and HCC genesis and development. Methods Fifty-three surgical excised HCC specimens and paired adjacent non-cancerous specimens, seven normal liver specimens and five HCC cell lines were collected. The expression of AXIN2 at mRNA level and the methylation status of AXIN2 gene promoter were determined by quantitative PCR. Results The expression of AXIN2 mRNA was lower in HCC tissues (0.1629 + 0.0679) than that in adjacent non-cancerous tissues (0. 4155 + 0. 2330), and there was significant difference (Z= -2. 567, P = 0. 010). The methylation level of AXIN2 gene in HCC and adjacent non-cancerous tissues (39. 77% ±3. 89%, and 36. 92% ±2. 81%) was significantly higher than that in normal liver tissues (7. 38% ±2. 40% , t=-3. 663 ,P = 0. 009;t= -4. 591 ,P = 0. 007).AXIN2 gene was hypermethylated in all five HCC cell lines. There was a negative correlation between AXIN2 mRNA expression level and the degree of methylation ( r = -0. 458, P = 0. 032). The methylation level was higher in TNM Ⅲ patients of HCC than that in TNM Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients (P =0.008). Conclusion The down-regulation of AXIN2 gene mRNA expression is correlated with its hypermethylation status. The low expression of AXIN2 mRNA and the abnormal methylation of promoter may be one of the important mechanism of HCC genesis and development.
