Purpose To explore the clinicopathological features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma(MCL)with aberrant expression of CD10.Methods 14 cases of MCL with aberrant expression of CD10 were analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin,immunohistochemical stains,in situ hybridization,and fluorescence in situ hy-bridization(FISH)techniques to observe the histological morphology,immunophenotype,and molecular genetic char-acteristics.The relevant literatures were reviewed.Results There were 11 males and 3 females,with a male-to-fe-male ratio of 11∶3.The age ranged from 49 to 80 years,with an average age of 64.4 years and a median age of 64 years.10 cases occurred in lymph nodes,1 case in the nasopharynx,1 case in the right colon,1 case in the right eye-lid,and 1 case in the right testis.According to the Ann Arbor staging system,8 cases were classified as stage Ⅳ and 5 cases as stage Ⅲ,and 1 case with undetermined staging.Histologically,there was diffuse effacement of the normal architecture by tumor cells infiltration.Transparent degenerate small blood vessels and scattered individual epithelial-like tissue cells could be observed in the background.Among them,8 cases(8/14,57.14%)were composed of uni-form small to medium-sized lymphocytes with slightly irregular nuclei,unevenly dispersed chromatin,inconspicuous nucleoli,and scant cytoplasm,along with observable mitotic figures.In 3 cases(3/14,21.43%),the tumor cells were large and markedly pleomorphic,with round or irregular nuclei,prominent nucleoli,frequent mitotic figures,and abundant pale cytoplasm.Tumor cells in 3 cases(3/14,21.43%)were resembling lymphoblasts,characterized by round nuclei,fine chromatin,inconspicuous nucleoli,frequent mitotic figures,and scant cytoplasm.Immunophenotyp-ically,CD21 staining showed residual follicular dendritic meshworks.The tumor cells were diffusely and strongly posi-tive for CD20(14/14),PAX5(7/7),CD5(14/14),Cyclin D1(14/14),SOX11(11/11),and BCL2(13/13),partially positive for BCL6(8/14,57.14%)and MUM1(6/9,66.67%),but negative for CD3(14/14)and CD23(14/14).Among 14 cases,10 cases were diffusely and strongly positive for CD10(10/14,71.43%),and 4 cases were partially positive for CD10(4/14,28.57%).The percentage of Ki67 index ranged from 10%to 90%.All cases were negative for EBER(8/8).FISH analysis was performed in 9 cases,among which 7 cases showed CCND1 gene rearrangement,another 2 cases failed to detect due to insufficient tissue samples.Bone marrow biopsy was performed in 13 cases,revealing involvement in 8 cases(8/13,61.54%)and no involvement in 5 cases(5/13,38.46%).Con-clusion MCL with aberrant expression of CD10 is very rare,which commonly exhibits a diffuse growth pattern and blastoid and pleomorphic variants.It often has a high Ki67 proliferation index and poorer prognosis,and should be dis-tinguished from other subtypes of CD1O-positive B-cell lymphomas.

The present study identified chemical constituents of Honghua Xiaoyao Tablet (HXT) and explored its biological connotation and characteristics on the premenstrual syndrome (PMS) treatment from the "disease-syndrome-symptom" association network. UHPLC-Q Exactive Orbitrap HRMS technology was applied to analyze the chemical constituents in HXT. According to the composition principles, the compatible herbs of HXT were divided into the Shugan Jieyu group, Huoxue Tiaojing group and Yiqi Jianpi group. The candidate targets of the corresponding prescriptions of HXT efficacy groups were collected from the Pharmmapper database and Integrative Pharmacology-based Research Platform of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCMIP) v2.0. The gene set related to the clinical symptoms included in Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine diagnosis and treatment standards were obtained from SoFDA, GeneCards, DisGeNET, MalaCards and literature published. The "HXT candidate targets-PMS (liver depression, Qi stagnation, and blood stasis syndrome) genes" network was constructed based on the gene interaction information, and further, the core network targets were screened out by topological characteristics of calculating network, and the functional exploration was carried out based on Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) for exploring the therapeutic advantages in PMS treatment of HXT efficacy groups, which were further verified experimentally
