HCV-related liver and lymphoproliferative diseases: association with polymorphisms of IL28B and TLR2
To explore the relationship between innate immunity and hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in determining the risk of cirrhosis (CIR), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), mixed cryoglobulinemia syndrome (MCS) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), we investigated the impact of the toll-like receptor-2 (TLR2) and interleukin-28B (IL28B) genetic variants. TLR2 -174 del variant was associated with TLR2 expression and w...
متن کاملNotch4 and mhc class II polymorphisms are associated with hcv-related benign and malignant lymphoproliferative diseases
Mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC), is a HCV-related, clinically benign, lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) that may evolve into a non Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Significant associations were found between two single nucleotide polymorphisms near NOTCH4 (rs2071286) and the HLA class II (rs9461776) genes and HCV-related MC syndrome (MCS). We analyzed NOTCH4 rs2071286 and HLA-II rs9461776 in 3 HCV-relate...
متن کاملAtypical Lymphoproliferative Diseases.
This review addresses the clinical presentation, pathology, and therapy of several uncommon lymphoid proliferations. Because these lymphoproliferations span the characteristics of reactive polymorphous proliferations to clonal malignant neoplasms, they are often difficult to diagnose and treat effectively. In Section I, Dr. Greiner describes the pathology of the spectrum of atypical lymphoid di...
متن کاملImmune thrombocytopenia in lymphoproliferative diseases.
We have studied the thrombocytopenia of lymphoproliferative disorders using a measurement of membrane-bound IgG by an antiglobulin consumption assay. Nine patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and thrombocytopenia had increased membrane-bound IgG. Two patients with non-Hodgkins lymphoma and 1 patient with Hodgkins disease also had thrombocytopenia and increased membrane-bound IgG. Fi...
متن کاملHepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and lymphoproliferative disorders
Several infectious agents have been associated with development of lymphoproliferative disorders. Among these is hepatitis C virus (HCV), which infects more than 200 million people worldwide. HCV infection has been linked to progression of type II mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC) syndrome and has also been suggested to contribute to development of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Mechanisms resp...
