چکیده

Stress-related immunity can be activated in the course of lymphoproliferative disorders, including Hodgkin's lymphoma, upon the interaction between killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily K, member 1 (KLRK1, best known as NKG2D) on effector lymphocytes and NKG2D ligands (NKG2DL), such as MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence A (MICA), MICB and various UL16-binding proteins (ULBPs), on lymphoma cells. However, NKG2DLs can also bind NKG2D upon shedding, thus affecting the recognition of lymphoma cells by the immune system. The proteolytic cleavage of MICA depends on protein disulfide isomerase family A, member 6 (PDIA6, a thiol isomerase best known as ERp5) as well as on the disintegrins and metalloproteinases ADAM metallopeptidase domain 10 (ADAM10) and ADAM17, which also cleave ULPBs. These enzymes can be targeted in novel therapeutic schemes to avoid the escape of malignant cells from stress-evoked immune responses.

Trait Mindfulness, Affective Symptoms and Quality of Life in People with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma

Purpose: The construct of mindfulness has previously been examined in cancer patients, as has the efficacy of mindfulness-based treatments. However, it has not been examined in people with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). NHL is one of the most distressing cancer diagnoses being associated with high levels of depression, anxiety and poor quality of life (QOL). In this study, we evaluated the exper...

The levels of Serum Alkaline Phosphatase and Lactate Dehydrogenase in Hodgkin Lymphoma

Background: Hodgkin’s disease (HD) is a neoplastic disease originating in lymphoid tissue, which spreads to lymphoid structures and ultimately nonlymphoid tissues. Lactate Dehydrogenase and Alkaline Phosphatase are increased in blood following membrane cell damage. The aim of this study was to compare Lactate Dehydrogenase and Alkaline Phosphatase levels in children in different stages of Hodg...
