Objective: To explore the clinicopathologic features of non-Hodgkin' s lymphoma (NHL) patients seen in our hospital in the recent ten years and to discuss the relationship between clinical data and the prognostic factors. Methods: The clinical and pathological features of 1,012 NHL cases were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The main pathological subtypes included 346 (34.1%) cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), 185 (18.3%) cases of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), 97 (9.6%) cases of follicular lymphoma (FL), 94 (9.3%) cases of extranodal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), 62 (6.1%) cases of nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma and 47 (4.6%) cases of T-lymphoblastic lymphoma. There were 619 (61.2%) cases classified as nodal lymphoma and 393 (38.8%) cases classified as extranodal lymphoma. For the whole group, the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 45.8%. The univariate analysis showed that the clinical stage, performance status (PS), B-symptom, age, tumor size, the serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, the number of extranodal involvement and IPI were correlated with prognosis of NHL(P<0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that the source of T cells, Ⅲ/Ⅳ clinical stage, IPI (3~5) and increased LDH were correlated with poor prognosis (P<0.05). Conclusion: The incidence of NHL in middle-aged people is relatively higher. Extranodal lymphoma and B-cell lymphoma are more frequent in Xinjiang. Immunophenotypes, clinical stages, IPI and the level of LDH expression are closely correlated with prognosis of NHL.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of Loureirin A mediated anti-hepatic fibrosis by evaluting its effects on proliferation , secretion ofα-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1), and expression of rat hepatic stellate cells in vitro . Methods Primary hepatic stellate cells were isolated and cultured from Sprague-Dawley rats. After activating and inducing primary hepatic stellate cells from qHSC to aHSC, the activated hepatic stellate cells model in vitro was established. Then we observed the morphological changes of static hepatic stellate cells and activated hepatic stellate cells with inverted phase contrast microscope. Cultured hepatic stellate cells were treated with different concentrations of loureirin A and the inhibitory rate of HSCs proliferation was measured by MTT assay. The expression of Frizzled-4 was measured by western blot analysis. The content ofα-SMA and TGF-β1 in the cultured HSCs'supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) . Results Loureirin A the proliferation of inhibited activated hepatic stellate cells in a time-dose-dependent manner compared with the control group,IC50=0.30 μg/μL. After loureirinA treatment of the HSCs, western blot analysis showed that Frizzled-4 expression level was obviously lower than control group. Loureirin A also inhibitedα-SMA and TGFβ1 (P<0.05) secretion in the cultured HSCs'supernatant in different degree by the assay of ELISA. Conclusions The molecular mechanism of Loureirin A and Wnt signaling pathway mediated anti-hepatic fibrosis and anti-angiogenesis may involve down-regulation the expression of Frizzled-4, inhibiting the synthesis and secretion ofα-SMA,TGF-β1and the proliferation of HSCs.
