Introduction: This study aimed to explore the significance and cut-off values of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3-internal tandem duplications mutant allelic ratio (FLT3-ITD MR) in prognostic evaluation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Methods: This study enrolled 249 Chinese AML patients. The exons 14 and 15 of FLT3 gene were amplified by genomic polymerase chain reaction. GeneScan and single nucleotide sequencing were also performed. Participants were grouped into high- and low-ratio FLT3-ITD MR (FLT3-ITD MRhigh and FLT3-ITD MRlow) applying the median of FLT3-ITD MR as the cut-off ratio, and patients without FLT3-ITD were grouped as FLT3-wild type (wt). Duration of complete remission (CR), relapsed remission and overall survival (OS) were examined. Results: FLT3-ITD was detected in 58 patients. The medians of FLT3-ITD MR were 0.31 and 0.29 for all AML and non-M3 patients, respectively. For all patients, FLT3-ITD MRhigh group had the lowest CR rate among these 3 groups (p < 0.001). The FLT3-wt group, FLT3-ITD MRlow and FLT3-ITD MRhigh group had the median OS of 36.00 months (range: 2.00-92.00 months), 12.00 months (range: 1.00-78.00 months) and 14.00 months (range: 0.00-79.00 months), respectively. Subjects in FLT3-ITD MRhigh group had 2.675 times (95% CI: 1.726-4.146; p < 0.001) and 1.879 times (95% CI: 1.061-3.328; p = 0.031) higher death risk than those in FLT3-wt group and FLT3-ITD MRlow group, respectively. For non-M3 patients, the median OS was 35.00 months (range: 2.00-92.00 months), 9.5 months (range: 1.00-74.00 months) and 10.00 months (range: 1.00-38.00 months) in the FLT3-wt group, FLT3-ITD MRlow group and FLT3-ITD MRhigh group, respectively. Non-M3 patients in FLT3-ITD MRhigh group had 3.301 times (95% CI: 1.423-7.661; p = 0.005) higher death risk than those in FLT3-wt group. Conclusion: The present study found that FLT3-ITD MR is closely related to CR and OS in AML patients. Furthermore, FLT3-ITD MR may serve as an independent prognostic factor for OS in non-M3 AML patients. Classifying risk grades based on FLT3-ITD MR is crucial for individualized treatment and prognostic evaluation.

目的 评价血清乳酸脱氢酶(lactate dehydrogenase,LDH)在骨髓细胞形态相似难以区分的伯基特淋巴瘤(burkittlymphoma,BL)和急性淋巴细胞白血病(acute lymphoblastic leukaemia,ALL)鉴别诊断中的价值,并确定其相应的临床诊断阈值.方法 回顾2007年1月1日-2019年3月31日在四川大学华西医院骨髓细胞形态学初诊为伯基特淋巴瘤的患者66例,采用流式细胞免疫分析技术(FCM)进行确诊.进一步分析初诊时患者血清LDH水平,并借助受试者工作特征曲线(receiver operatingcharacteristic curve,ROC)确定诊断阈值.结果 形态学初诊为BL的66例患者中,经FCM确诊,有35例BL,31例B-ALL.确诊为BL的患者血清LDH水平显著高于B-ALL(P <0.001).ROC曲线下面积为0.871.当诊断界值为1100.5 IU/L时,诊断特异性为77.4%,灵敏度为88.6%.结论 LDH可作为骨髓细胞形态相似难以区分的伯基特淋巴瘤与急性淋巴细胞白血病鉴别诊断的重要辅助指标,伯基特淋巴瘤的最佳临床诊断阈值为LDH≥1 100.5 IU/L.
Chemokine ligand 12(CXCL12) mediates signaling through chemokine receptor 4(CXCR4), which is essential for the homing and maintenance of Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow. FLT3-ITD mutations enhance cell migration toward CXCL12, providing a drug resistance mechanism underlying the poor effects of FLT3-ITD antagonists. However, the mechanism by which FLT3-ITD mutations regulate the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis remains unclear. We analyzed the relationship between CXCR4 expression and the FLT3-ITD mutation in 466 patients with de novo AML to clarify the effect of FLT3-ITD mutations on CXCR4 expression in patients with AML. Our results indicated a positive correlation between the FLT3-ITD mutant-type allelic ratio (FLT3-ITD MR) and the relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) of CXCR4 expression in patients with AML (r = 0.588, P ≤ 0.0001). Moreover, the levels of phospho(p)-STAT5, Pim-1 and CXCR4 proteins were positively correlated with the FLT3-ITD MR, and the mRNA levels of CXCR4 and Pim-1 which has been revealed as one of the first known target genes of STAT5, were upregulated with an increasing FLT3-ITD MR(P < 0.05). Therefore, FLT3-ITD mutations upregulate the expression of CXCR4 in patients with AML, and the downstream signaling intermediates STAT5 and Pim-1 are also involved in this phenomenon and subsequently contribute to chemotherapy resistance and disease relapse in patients with AML. However, the mechanism must be confirmed in further experiments. The combination of CXCR4 antagonists and FLT3 inhibitors may improve the sensitivity of AML cells to chemotherapy and overcome drug resistance.

Objective:To study the correlation of serum PDCD5 and Bax contents with the pathological features of tumor lesions in patients with lung cancer.Methods:Patients with lung cancer who underwent surgical treatment in West China Hospital between June 2014 and March 2017 were selected as the lung cancer group for the study,the serum specimens were collected before surgery,and the lung cancer lesion and adjacent lesion were taken after surgery;the healthy subjects who underwent physical examination in West China Hospital during the same period were selected as the control group,and the serum samples were taken during the physical examination;the contents of PDCD5 and Bax in serum as well as the contents of PDCD5 and Bax,and the expression of proliferation genes and invasion genes in the lung cancer lesion and adjacent lesion were measured.Results:PDCD5 and Bax contents in serum of lung cancer group were significantly lower than those of control group,PDCD5 and Bax contents in lung cancer lesion were significantly lower than those in adjacent lesion,and the PDCD5 and Bax contents in serum of patients with lung cancer were positively correlated with the PDCD5 and Bax contents in lung cancer lesion;C-myc,RACK1,CatL,MMP2 and N-cadherin mRNA expression in lung cancer lesion were significantly higher than those in adjacent lesion and negatively correlated with PDCD5 and Bax contents in serum whereas LAST1,PAQR3,TCF21,E-cadherin,TIMP1 and TIMP2 mRNA expression were significantly lower than those in adjacent lesion and positively correlated with PDCD5 and Bax contents in serum.Conclusion:The decrease of PDCD5 and Bax in serum of patients with lung cancer is closely related to the aggravation of cancer cell proliferation and invasion in tumor lesions.
目的 分析MicroRNA-191(miR-191)与T淋巴母细胞性淋巴瘤(T-LBL)的相关性及其可能机制.方法 回顾性将40例T-LBL患者(观察组)及40例淋巴结反应性增生(LRH)患者(对照组)作为研究对象,通过荧光实时定量PCR法测定对照组淋巴结组织与观察组肿瘤组织中miR-191的表达水平,进而分析其与预后效果的关系.将反义miR-191慢病毒载体转染的Jurkat细胞为A组,阴性对照载体转染的Jurkat细胞为B组,未转染的Jurkat细胞为C组;构建阴性对照载体与反义miR-191慢病毒载体,并对T-LBL细胞系Jurkat细胞进行转染,并采用相同方法对miR-191的表达水平进行检测.结果 相比对照组,观察组患者miR-191表达水平显著升高(P<0.01).将miR-191表达水平的中位数(1.84)作为临界值,将观察组患者分为低表达组(13例)、高表达组(27例).T-LBL患者高表达组3年总生存率较低表达组显著降低(P<0.05).A组Jurkat细胞转染后miR-191表达水平(0.53±0.03)较B组(1.02±0.06)、C组(1.00)显著降低(P<0.05),而B组、C组表达水平的比较,并无显著差异(P>0.05).A组Jurkat细胞转染2d后,其G1期细胞比率较B组、C组明显增加(P<0.05),S期细胞比率较B组、C组明显减少(P<0.05),而三组G2/M期细胞比率的比较,并无显著差异(P>0.05);A组细胞凋亡率较B组、C组明显升高(P<0.05).结论 miR-191可能参与T-LBL的病理过程,故可考虑作为治疗T-LBL的潜在靶点.
Objective To detect the difference between the peroxidase (POX) by cytochemical staining and cytoplasm myeloperoxidase (cMPO) by flow cytometry in acute leukemia cells,and provide a more accurate basis for the classification of leukemia.Methods The positive rate of POX in acute leukemia cells was detected by cytochemical staining.The positive rate of cMPO in acute leukemia cells was detected by flow cytometry.Then the positive rate of POX and cMPO,and the positive cells score were analyzed.Results The positive rate and the positive cells scores between POX and cMPO in acute lymphoblastic leukemia were significantly different (P<0.05),the positive rate and the positive cells scores of POX were significantly higher than those of cMPO.The positive rate between POX and cMPO in acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL) had significant differences (P<0.05),the positive rate of cMPO was higher than that of POX;but no difference was found between POX and cMPO positive cells scores in ANLL (P>0.05).In acute myelocytic leukemia (AML)-M 1 subtype,significant difference was found in the positive rate between POX and cMPO (P=0.006);cMPO positive rate was significantly higher than that of POX,but the POX positive cells score was significantly higher than that of cMPO (P=0.001).There were no significances of positive rate and positive cells score in AML-M2,AML-M3,AML-M4,AML-M5 subtypes between POX and cMPO (P>0.05).Conclusions There are not major differences between positive rate of POX and cMPO,as well as the positive cells scores in acute leukemia,especially acute myelocytic leukemia.We can choose the better method according to the actual situation and the sensitivity requirements.The two methods should be replenished by each other and used alternately.
Objective To evaluate the value of Sysmex XT-4000i hematology analyzer in its body-fluid mode in cell count and cell differential count of pleural effusion,ascites and cerebrospinal fluid samples.Methods A total of 95 pleural effusion,ascites and cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected from patients hospitalized between May and September 2015.The samples were tested by Sysmex XT-4000i hematology analyzer (instrument method) and modified Neubauer hemocytometer (manual method) for cell count,and the results of them were compared and analyzed.Results The instrument method and the manual method had a good consistency in nuclear cell count and erythrocyte count (kappa=0.965,P< 0.001;kappa=0.988,P<0.001).There was no significant difference in the count ofmononuclear cells (P>0.05).However,there was a significant difference in the count of multiple nuclear cells (P<0.05).Conclusions Hematology analyzer in its body-fluid mode may replace manual method in cell count of pleural effusion,ascites and cerebrospinal fluids for its high precision,high efficiency and easy operation.However,cell differential count of this method needs microscopic examination assistance.
Rationale: Coexisting systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection cases are rare worldwide. Great challenges are posed on the diagnosis and treatment of such concurrent cases. Patient concern: We report the case of a 44-year-old Chinese man with edema, hematuria, and fever who presented at West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China, in 2013. Diagnoses: An initial diagnosis of SLE was made from the clinical manifestations and laboratory findings based on the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics classification criteria. Immunosuppressant therapy relieved him of the edema and hematuria, but he regained the symptoms after a cold. Workup, including electrochemiluminescence immunoassay, western blot, and polymerase chain reaction analysis, revealed that he was concurrently infected with HIV after hospitalization. Interventions: The treatment plan included methylprednisolone and cyclophosphamide, with gastroprotective and hepatoprotective agents, simultaneously aiming to reduce urinary protein. After HIV infection confirmed, cyclophosphamide was stopped. He was referred to the local Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for combination antiretroviral therapy (ART). He was suggested to continue monitoring CD4 T-cell count for an appropriate dose of immunosuppressive drugs. Outcomes: In the last follow-up in May 2017, he had been stable in terms of both SLE and HIV infection. Lessons: The case highlights the presence of concurrent SLE and HIV infection. Laboratory technicians and clinicians should be cautious on diagnosis, especially in eliminating the false-positive results. Attention should be paid to the dose of immunosuppressants and the ART procedure.
The SCARB1 gene encodes human scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), the primary receptor for high-density lipoprotein (HDL)- cholesteryl ester uptake, and polymorphisms in this gene may influence SR-BI protein expression and serum lipid levels, modulating susceptibility to coronary heart disease (CHD) and cerebral infarction (CI). Therefore, we investigated the association between singlenucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the SCARB1 gene and serum lipid levels as well as risk of CHD and CI in the Chinese Han population. Genotypes in 295 CHD patients, 302 CI patients and 312 healthy controls matched for age and gender were determined by high-resolution melting (HRM). Among the 5 SNPs investigated in this study, rs10846744 and rs2278986 were significantly associated with CHD risk. The frequency of the C allele for rs10846744 and that of the T allele for rs2278986 appeared to be significantly increased in the CHD group (OR: 1.416, 95%CI: 1.128–1.778, P=0.0058 and OR: 1.681, 95%CI: 1.327–2.130, P<0.0001, respectively). CHD patients with genotypes CC and CG for rs10846744 had a higher HDL-c level than those with genotype GG, and CHD patients with genotypes CC and CT for the rs2278986 SNP had a higher HDL-c level compared to those with the TT allele. The other 3 SNPs, rs5888, rs10744182 and rs838893, showed no significant association with serum lipid levels and CHD or CI risk in the Chinese population. The CCCTT and CCTTC haplotypes of rs5888, rs10846744, rs10744182, rs2278986 and rs838893 appear to significantly increase CHD risk, whereas the CGTTC, CCTCT and TGCTC haplotypes appear to significantly reduce risk. Overall, the CCTTC and TGTTC haplotypes acted as a significant risk for CI, with the CGCTC and CCCCT haplotypes conferring significantly reduced risk. These results suggest that SCARB1 gene polymorphisms may contribute to genetic susceptibility to CHD; in particular, the C allele of rs10846744 and the C allele of rs2278986 may serve as risk and protective factors for CHD, respectively.

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a form of cancer characterized by infiltration of the bone marrow, blood, and other tissues by proliferative, clonal, abnormally differentiated cells of the hematopoietic system. Chemokine stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) and its receptor CXC receptor 4 (CXCR4) play crucial roles in malignant cell invasion. Genetic polymorphisms may contribute to the differences in the expression level and activities associated with the SDF-1/CXCR4 pathway. This study aimed to determine the associations between the polymorphisms located on the SDF-1 (rs1801157, G>A) and CXCR4 (rs2228014, C>T) encoding genes and susceptibility and leukemia cell dissemination in AMLMethods: A total of 926 individuals, including 466 de novo AML patients and 460 healthy controls were genotyped for rs1801157 and rs2228014 using DNA Sanger sequencing.Results: Genotype distributions of CT and CT + TT for rs2228014 were significantly increased in AML patients compared with healthy controls [OR: 1.36, p = 0.04; OR: 1.34, p = 0.04; respectively]. However, rs1801157 demonstrated no significant differences in genotype distributions and allele frequency between AML patients and healthy controls. For the two combined SNPs, there was no significant proportional difference between the wild type GG-CC genotypes and non-GG-CC genotypes in AML patients and healthy controls. Additionally, peripheral blood leukemia-cell (PBLC) count was not statistically influenced by the genotypes of either rs1801157 or rs2228014.Conclusion: Genotype CT of rs2228014 appeared to correlate with AML risk, but played no role in leukemia cells invading the bloodstream, while rs1801157 and the two combined SNPs were not associated with either increased AML risk or extramedullary leukemia-cell dissemination.
