Objective: To analyze the diagnosis and therapy for double-hit lymphoma (DHL) and triple-hit lymphoma (THL). Methods:This study involves three patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) that transformed into DHL or THL. These patients were ad-mitted to our hospital between January 2011 and December 2012. All patients were diagnosed by immunohistochemistry and fluores-cence in situ hybridization (FISH). Results:One FL patient transformed into THL and died after 3 months. The other two FL patients who transformed into DHL and who received R-CHOP and R-ESHAP regimens still failed to achieve complete remission. Conclusion:DHL is a rare type of lymphoma that usually involves the bone marrow and central nervous system. This condition is highly resistant to intensive chemotherapy. Part of the DHL cases result from FL. FISH is important for diagnosis. However, a standard treatment for this type of lymphoma remains lacking.

Objective To investigate the effect of neurotrophin-3(NT-3)on the proliferation and apoptosis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)in rats and possible mechanisms. Methods The NT-3 overexpression and lentiviral transfection of BMSCs were co-cultured with neuronal cells respectively and then they were divided into overexpression control group,NT-3 transfection group and shRNA-NT-3 transfection group(NT-3 silencing group).MTT assay was used to detect the cell culture for 24 h,48 h and 72 h. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry for 48 h. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of C/EBPβmRNA.The expression of C/EBPβprotein was detected by Western blot. Results MTT results showed that the proliferation ability of BMSCs in the NT-3 overexpres-sion group was significantly higher than that in the control group(0.650±0.042,0.826±0.074)at 48 h and 72 h(P<0.05).Compared with the control group(P<0.05),the cell cycle and apoptosis of BMSCs in NT-3 silencing group were significantly decreased at 48 h and 72 h(P<0.05). The results of 48 h cell cycle and apoptosis showed that the percentage of G1 phase in BMSCs was decreased,G2 and S were increased and the apoptosis was decreased. The percentage of G1 phase in G2-S phase and the increase of apoptosis were in-creased in NT-3 silencing group. The results of Western Blot showed that C/EBPβ mRNA and protein levels were significantly up-regulated in BMSCs of NT-3 overexpression group and significantly decreased in NT-3 silencing group(P<0.05).Conclusion NT-3 may promote the expression of C/EBP beta and affect the ex-pression of its downstream target genes,which can inhibit the apoptosis of BMSCs cells.

Objective:To investigate the expressions and significance of cyclin D2 and bcl-2 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and their clinical significances.Methods:The tissues of 87 DLBCL patients undergoing resection and 23 patients with lymphoid tissue reactive hyperplasia (RLH) in the First Central Hospital of Baoding from January 2015 to March 2020 were collected. Immunohistochemistry method was used to detect the expressions of cyclin D2 and bcl-2 in tissues of DLBCL and RLH, and the relationship between the expressions of cyclin D2 and bcl-2 as well as the association with the clinicopathological features of DLBCL patients.Results:The positive rates of cyclin D2 protein in DLBCL and RLH were 33.3% (29/87) and 2.0% (1/23), the positive rates of bcl-2 protein in DLBCL and RLH were 60.9% (54/87) and 7.0% (3/23); the positive rates of cyclin D2 and bcl-2 in DLBCL were higher than those in RLH, and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=7.566, P=0.006; χ2=17.512, P < 0.01). The expressions of cyclin D2 and bcl-2 proteins were related to the Ann Arbor staging and immunophenotype of DLBCL patients (all P < 0.05), while not related to age, gender, cancer location, tissue type (all P > 0.05). There was a positive correlation between the expressions of cyclin D2 and bcl-2 protein in DLBCL ( r=1.000, P < 0.01). Conclusions:cyclin D2 and bcl-2 may be related to the development and progression of DLBCL, and both may have some synergies.
