متن کاملSpontaneous remission of African lymphoma.
THE extreme sensitivity to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and the relatively high incidence of long-term survivals observed in the treatment of African lymphoma is now well known (Burkitt, Hutt and Wright, 1965 ; Clifford, 1966 ; Ngu, 1966). The observation that long-term remissions, amounting to possible cures. can follow a single dose of chemotherapy (Burkitt, 1966) suggests a strong antitumo...

Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the central nervous system is an aggressive malignancy that exhibits unique biological features and characteristic clinical behaviour, with overall long-term survival rates of around 20-40%. Clinical outcome has improved following the advent of chemoradiation protocols incorporating high-dose methotrexate in the mid-1980s, but disease relapse and...
متن کاملGene Expression and Angiotropism in Primary CNS Lymphoma Running Title: Gene Expression in Primary CNS Lymphoma
Primary CNS lymphoma is an aggressive form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma whose growth is restricted to the central nervous system. We used cDNA microarray analysis to compare the gene expression signature of primary CNS lymphomas with nodal large B-cell lymphomas. Here we show that while individual cases of primary CNS lymphomas may be classified as germinal center B-cell, activated B-cell, or type 3...
