2.Research progress of primary testicular lymphoma and primary central nervous system lymphoma: reports from the 19th European Hematology Association annual congress
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2014;23(10):586-588,592
Primary testicular lymphoma (PTL) is an uncommon extranodal lymphoma,with an aggressive clinical course and poor outcome.A combined treatment with full-course anthracycline-based chemotherapy with rituximab and central nervous system prophylaxis with intrathechal methotrexate and contralateral testicular radiotherapy should be considered as the standard of care at limited stage.These patients have a very high risk of central nervous system recurrence and the addition of systemic central nervous system prophylaxis with intravenous methotrexate may be the best treatment option.Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an aggressive disease with a dismal prognosis,particularly when treated with established protocols used for systemic non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Use of methotrexate in combination with cytarabine has been proposed as a standard induction regimen.The role of the anti-CD20 antibody has not yet been defined,however,phase Ⅰ and Ⅱ trials suggest its efficacy despite low penetration within the cerebrospinal fluid.High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation has shown high remission rates with 3-year overall suvival rates of up to 87 %.

5.Detection and its clinical value of CCR5 and CCR7 in dendritic cells from patients with active rheumatoid arthritis.
Journal of Southern Medical University 2010;30(9):2067-2069
OBJECTIVETo detect the expressions of CCR5 and CCR7 on dendritic cells (DCs) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in different phases of disease activity, and explore the relationship between the disease activity and the expression of chemokine receptors.
METHODSTwenty-eight patients with low, moderate and high disease activity and 10 normal control subjects were enrolled in this study. Peripheral blood was obtained from the subjects and the DCs were isolated. The expression of CCR5 and CCR7 on DCs were detected by flow cytometry, and the serum levels of rheumatoid factor (RF), C-reactive protein (CRP) and anti-CCP antibody (ACPA) were assessed. The correlation of the expressions of CCR5 and CCR7 to serum RF, CRP, and ACPA levels of the RA patients were analyzed.
RESULTSCompared to the normal control group, RA patients showed enhanced expressions of CCR5 and CCR7 on the DCs. A linear correlation was noted between CCR5 and CCR7 expressions on the DCs and the serum levels of RF and CRP, but not ACPA, in the RA patients.
CONCLUSIONThe expressions of CCR5 and CCR7 on the DCs may correlate to the disease activity of RA, and may serve as valuable indices in monitoring the disease activity and the efficacy of the treatment.
