Nonstereotyped lymphoma B cell receptors recognize vimentin as a shared autoantigen.
Ag activation of the BCR may play a role in the pathogenesis of human follicular lymphoma (FL) and other B cell malignancies. However, the nature of the Ag(s) recognized by tumor BCRs has not been well studied. In this study, we used unbiased approaches to demonstrate that 42 (19.35%) of 217 tested FL Igs recognized vimentin as a shared autoantigen. The epitope was localized to the N-terminal r...
متن کاملHISTIOCYTE-RICH B-CELL LYMPHOMA: A CASE REPORT OF A RARE VARIANT OF DIFFUSE LARGE B-CELL LYMPHOMA
The authors describe a case of histiocyte-rich B-cell lymphoma (HR-BCL), a variant of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, in a 51-year-old man. The patient presented with large axillary lymphadenopathy. Histopathologic and immunohistochemical examination of lymph node biopsy revealed diffuse effacement of the lymph node architecture by reactive histiocytes and neoplastic CD20 positive B cells. ...
متن کاملResponse to Comment on "Primary Central Nervous System (CNS) Lymphoma B Cell Receptors Recognize CNS Proteins".
Primary lymphoma of the CNS (PCNSL) is a diffuse large B cell lymphoma confined to the CNS. To elucidate its peculiar organ tropism, we generated recombinant Abs (recAbs) identical to the BCR of 23 PCNSLs from immunocompetent patients. Although none of the recAbs showed self-reactivity upon testing with common autoantigens, they recognized 1547 proteins present on a large-scale protein microarr...
متن کاملB-cell lymphoma presenting as acute pancreatitis symptoms in a child
Lymphoma which has a wide range of manifestations is the third malignancy in pediatrics. Nearly, 50% of patients have extranodal involvement. Pancreas can be affected secondarily more than primarily. A 10-year-old boy with recurrent abdominal pain in the epigastric region for six weeks was referred to Amirkola Childrenchr('39')s Hospital, affiliated to Babol University of medical sciences (nort...
متن کاملIntravascular Large B-cell Lymphoma: A Report of Two Cases
One of the rare variants of extranodal large B-cell lymphoma is intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL). Characteristics of IVLBCL include intraluminal selective proliferation of atypical lymphoid cells in small to medium-sized vessels. The etiologic of IVLBCL is unknown, but due to the growth pattern of this tumor, it is speculated that IVLBCL is caused by a defect in homing receptor of t...
