Purpose To explore the expression and significance of histone methyltransferase EZH2,clinicopathological features in primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods Immunohistochemical of Ventana Ultra View two-step staining was used to detect expression of EZH2 in 17 cases of primary testicular DLBCL.The relationship between EZH2 expression and its clinicopathological features were analyzed.Sanger squencing was used to detect EZH2 Y641 mutation in these cases.Results Morphologically,the tumor cells resembled centroblasts in 11 cases,immunoblasts in 3 cases,and anaplastic variants in 3 cases.Immunophenotypically,14 cases were non-germinal centre B cell like (non-GCB) type and 3 cases were germinal centre B cell like (GCB) subtype.EZH2 overexpressed in all 17 cases.EZH2 overexpressed in nearly tumor celts with uniformly strong intensity in 15 cases,and more than 70% tumor cells with moderate to strong intensity in 2 cases.The follow-up information was obtained in 9 patients,with a median survival time of 35 months.No association was found between the level of EZH2 expression and outcome of patients.No mutation of EZH2 Y641 was detected.Conclusion Primary testicular DLBCL is a rare aggressive B cell lymphoma with distinctive clinicopathological features.Detection of EZH2 expected to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor.

Objective To express human chemokine-like factor 1 (CKLF1) in Drosophila S2 cells and study its function. Methods The pMT/V5-His-CKLF1 expression plasmid was constructed and transfected into Drosophila S2 cells. The positive clones were selected through PCR and RT-PCR. The culture medium was analyzed by Western blot with anti-CKLF1 polyclonal antibody. Chemotaxis and MTT assays on human peripheral blood and C2C12 cells, respectively, were then carried out with the medium. Results CKLF1 was transcribed efficiently in S2 cells. The expressed CKLF1 protein could be detected in the culture supernatant by Western blot, which showed weak chemotactic activity on both human peripheral blood neutrophils and lymphocytes as well as enhancing effect on the proliferation of C2C12 cells. Conclusion CKLF1 was expressed successfully in Drosophila S2 cells and secreted into the culture medium. The recombinant CKLF1 expressed in Drosophila cells can chemoattract leucocytes and promote the proliferation of C2C12 cells.

Objective To explore the clinicalpathological characteristics of Lynch syndrome associated ovarian cancer.Methods Totally 260 cases ovarian cancer patients were admitted to Tianjin Medical University General Hospital during Jan.2004 and Jan.2011,among which 10 patients( LS group) belonged to Lynch syndrome associated ovarian cancer according to Amsterdam Ⅱ criteria.One hundred ovarian cancer patients without any family cancer history were enrolled randomizely as control group (sporadic group).Results Lynch syndrome associated ovarian cancer accounted for 3.8% ( 10/260),the incidence rate of ovarian cancer for female family members of Lynch syndrome was 8.7% ( 10/115 ).Mean age at time of diagnosis in LS group was (46 ±7) years,significantly earlier than that in sporadic group [ (56 ±11 ) years,P < 0.05 ].There was no statistical difference between two groups in histological type or International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics ( FIGO ) stage ( P > 0.05 ).Most of the tissue differentiation in LS group were well or moderate differentiated,there was statistical difference between the two groups(9/10 vs.55%,P <0.05).The 3-year and 5-year survival rate in LS group were 87.5% and 52.5%respectively,compared with 55.4%and 22.7% in sporadic group(all P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with sporadic ovarian cancer,Lynch syndrome associated ovarian cancer is more likely present as the clinicalpathological characteristics of early age of onset,serous adenocarcinoma,lower grade and better prognosis.

Objective To determine the clinical features and the factors affecting the recurrence of ovarian borderline epithelial tumors. Methods A retrospective data of 112 cases with ovarian borderline epithelial tumors admitted in General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from 2000 to 2015 were analyzed. Results The average age was (50.59±16.90) years in 112 patients with FIGO stageⅠof 102 (91.07%) patients, stageⅡof 4 (3.57%) and stageⅢof 6 (5.36%). The serum tumor marker (CA125) was examined in 102 patients, and 27 cases with the elevated indicator (26.47%). Surgical treatment was performed in 112 patients. Younger patients were more likely to choose conservative surgery. Ninety-seven patients were followed up, and 5 of them relapsed. Non fertility preserving surgery was performed in patients with recurrence. The recurrence rates of patients with different clinical pathological factors were compared. The recurrence rate was higher in patients with micro infiltration than that of patients without micro infiltration [37.50%(3/8) vs. 2.25%(2/89), P=0.004]. And the recurrence rate was higher in patients with microemulsion type borderline serous tumor than that of patients with non-papillary tumors [40.00%(2/5)vs. 0(0/41),P=0.019]. Seven patients underwent conservative surgery had normal spontaneous pregnancy. Conclusion The fertility-sparing surgery can be used as the treatment procedures for young patients, which is safe and effective. It is necessary to be on alert of recurrence for the cases with micropapillary pattern, and microinvasive tumor.
