Nongastric primary extranodal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are uncommon, with around 0.1% occurring in the prostate. Even less frequent is the presence of MALT lymphoma synchronous with another type of neoplasm in the same organ, especially the prostate. Only a single case of concurrent adenocarcinoma and MALT lymphoma of the prostate has been reported in the literature. W...

Anatomically, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) is found in various parts of the body. In the colon, lymphoid tissue occurs mainly as isolated lymphoid follicles that are composed mainly of B lymphocytes. Such gastrointestinal tract MALT plays an important role in immune surveillance and mucosal regeneration, but the cells inMALTmayoccasionally undergo abnormal proliferation and give ris...

Extranodal marginal zone B-cell type lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) in dogs has similar properties to human low-grade B-cell lymphoma. Both are characterised by a relatively low mitotic rate and a slow manifestation of clinical signs. Primary MALT lymphoma of the third eyelid in canines is very rare. In this case report we describe bilateral MALT lymphoma in a 21-month-old...

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are characterized by lymphoepithelial lesions pathologically. Colonic MALT lymphomas are relatively rarer than lymphomas of the stomach or small intestine. Endoscopically, colonic MALT lymphoma frequently appears as a nonpedunculated protruding polypoid mass and/or an ulceration in the cecum and/or rectum. We report a unique case of a colonic M...

INTRODUCTION Ukraine's volatile HIV epidemic, one of the largest in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, remains concentrated in people who inject drugs (PWID). HIV prevalence is high (21.3% to 41.8%) among the estimated 310,000 PWID. Opioid agonist therapy (OAT) is the most cost-effective HIV prevention strategy there, yet OAT services are hampered by negative attitudes and frequent harassment of ...

Aluminum maltolate (Al-malt) causes neurodegeneration following in vivo exposure, and apoptosis plays a prominent role. The objective of this study was to define the form of cell death induced by Al-malt and to establish an in vitro model system amenable to mechanistic investigations of Al-malt-induced cell death. Neuro-2a cells, a murine neuroblastoma cell line, were treated with Al-malt for 2...

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a type of extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma and is a distinct subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.Primary MALT lymphomas can also occur in the oral cavity, although their appearance in this location is rare. The neoplastic cells of which MALT lymphomas are composed express B-cell antigens and show monotypic immunoglobulin expression with...

BACKGROUND Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a well-known hematologic malignancy. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is the most commonly involved extra nodal site. MALT lymphomas are uncommon, accounting for 5% of all NHL. Gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is the prototype seen in association with Helicobacter pylori. Colonic MALT lymphoma is rare and comprises only 2.5% of th...

Introduction: Wild oat has become an invasive and economically important weedy species in most cereal growing areas of the world, including the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota. Approximately 79% of the wheat and 72% of barley acres seeded in northwestern Minnesota are infested with wild oat. In the past, wild oat has been effectively controlled with herbicides, and as a result li...

Tcl supports variable traces, which associate arbitrary scripts with variable reads, writes and unsets. We developed OAT (Object Attribute Traces), a protocol for extending traces to attributes of arbitrary Tcl “objects.” We wrote several OAT-based extensions including TkOAT, which provides traces on attributes of Tk widgets and canvas items. The OAT protocol and derived extensions bring the be...
