Decreased T-cell receptor excision circles in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.
PURPOSE The T cell repertoire in patients with advanced cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) is significantly contracted despite the presence of relatively normal absolute numbers of T cells. We propose that many normal T cells were being lost in patients with CTCL, with the remaining normal T cells expanding clonally to fill the T cell compartment. T-cell receptor excision circles (TREC) form as a...
متن کاملSpecific cutaneous manifestations in adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma
Background and aim: Adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggresive malignancy which may occur in human T lymphotropic virus1(HTLV1) infected persons. HTLV1 is endemic in Khorasan with prevalence of 2.3% in general population. Since specific cutaneous manifestations of lymphoma may occur in a significant number of patients, we studied ATLL patients in Mashhad.Mate...
متن کاملPrimary cutaneous CD30+T cell lymphoma: A case report
Primary cutaneous CD30+ T cell lymphoma is rare lymphoma originally in and confined to the skin. These lymphomas usually present as a large solitary and often ulcerated nodule. Its prognosis is a good and has a good response to radiotherapy. We report a 34- year- old man who had primary cutaneous CD30+T cell lymphoma on his face, which presented as an ulcerated nodule.
متن کاملCutaneous T-cell lymphoma.
BACKGROUND: Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) represents a spectrum of diseases composed of malignant helper T lymphocytes. An accurate diagnosis of early CTCL is difficult because of the varied clinical and histologic expressions of the disease. METHODS: The authors review the epidemiology, possible risk factors, clinical manifestations, diagnostic techniques, staging, prognosis, and treatment ...
متن کاملGamma-delta T-cell phenotype is associated with significantly decreased survival in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.
The importance of alpha beta versus gamma delta T-cell subset antigen expression in the classification of peripheral T-cell lymphomas is still unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of T-cell receptor-delta 1 (TCR delta 1) expression in primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. TCR delta 1 cellular expression was assessed in skin biopsy specimens of 104 individua...
