Serological detection of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma-associated antigens.
Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are a group of skin neoplasms that originate from T lymphocytes and are difficult to treat in advanced stages. The present study is aimed at the identification of tumor-specific antigens from a human testis cDNA library using human sera known as the SEREX (serological identification of recombinantly expressed genes) approach. A cDNA library from normal testicle...
متن کاملIdentification of a Bioactive Compound against Adult T-cell Leukaemia from Bitter Gourd Seeds.
In our previous report, an 80% ethanol bitter gourd seed extract (BGSE) was found to suppress proliferation of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) cell lines. The present study aimed to identify the bioactive compounds from BGSE specific against ATL. From the result of an HPLC-MS analysis, α-eleostearic acid (α-ESA) was present in BGSE at 0.68% ± 0.0022% (±SD, n = 5). In the cell proliferation test, α-...
متن کاملA case report of adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATLL).
Adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a unique disease with distinct manifestations, a characteristic phenotype and a likely retroviral aetiology. It is unusual in Southeast Asia, though more commonly seen in some countries like Japan. We report a case of this disease in a 71-year-old man in Singapore who presented with papular erythematous eruptions for 6 years and subsequently developed g...
متن کاملA case report of adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma.
Adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a rare T lymphoproliferative disorder which is aetiologically linked with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1). HTLV-1 is endemic in Japan, Caribbean and Africa. The highest incidence of ATLL is in Japan although sporadic cases have been reported elsewhere in the world. We describe a case of ATLL with an unusual presentation which we believe ...
متن کاملClinical Trials of Adult T-Cell Leukaemia/Lymphoma Treatment
Adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggressive malignancy of mature activated T cells caused by human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-1). Prognosis is severe because of intrinsic chemoresistance and severe immuosuppression. Four different subtypes are described with different outcomes, and treatment strategies vary according to the different clinical courses. Japanese trials sho...
