    Notes: Abstract The homozygous deletion allele (DD) of the angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE) gene and the T235 homozygote of the angiotensinogen (AGT) gene have been reported to be correlated with an increased prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI). The importance of the DD genotype and T235 homozygote as genetic risk factors for CAD in Chinese remains uncertain. This study included 426 patients who underwent coronary angiography and 180 healthy subjects without clinical evidence of CAD. Coronary angiography identified 268 patients with CAD (CAD group) and 158 patients without CAD. The healthy subjects and patients without angiographic evidence of CAD constituted the control group. Three polymorphisms were studied: an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the ACE gene and the T174 M and M235T polymorphisms of the AGT gene. No association was found between any of the three studied polymorphisms and the risk of CAD or MI in Chinese using univariate or multivariate analysis. In multivariate analysis, the relative risks were 1.20 (95% confidence interval = 0.91–1.61, P = 0.20) for the DD genotype, 1.05 (95% CI = 0.82–1.35, P = 0.69) for the T174 homozygote, and 1.19 (95% CI = 0.91–1.55, P = 0.20) for the T235 homozygote. Similarly, no significant difference was found in the frequencies of the DD genotype and the T174 and T235 homozygotes between the control group, the CAD group, the non-MI group, and the MI group when analyzed according to sex, age, or degree of risk. Our data suggest that neither the DD genotype of the ACE I/D polymorphism nor the T174 and T235 homozygotes of the AGT gene confer significant risk for CAD or MI in Chinese.

    Notes: The work function, field emission property (turn-on field), and Auger electron spectroscopy of cesiated carbon films on Si (100) have been investigated for codeposition of Cs neutral and C− ion beams at different energies (25–150 eV). The higher energy (150 eV) C− ion beam produces the lower work function surface (1.1 eV) as well as sp3 rich carbon film. The work function depends both on cesium concentration as well as on the sp3 fraction in the carbon films. The turn-on field of the film can be as low as 7 V/μm. The thermal stability of the low work function surface has been investigated for postdeposition annealing up to 600 °C. An extremely high stability cold cathode has been made by forming cesium carbide. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Background Asthma is now known to be an inflammatory response caused by the release of inflammatory mediators and cytokines. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) is a potent cytokine in the inflammation response of the airway, and the polymorphisms of TNF genes have been associated with asthma.Objective This study investigated two variants, TNF-α-308*2 and lymphotoxin (LT)-α-NcoI*1, which may predispose individuals to asthma and atopy pathogenesis.Methods PCR-based assays were performed to determine LT-α-NcoI*1 and TNF-α-308*2 genotypes among our subjects, with 128 atopic asthmatics and 51 non-atopic asthmatics, 55 atopic controls, and 78 non-atopic controls in this genetic case–control study.Results The TNF-α-308*2 polymorphism increased in subjects with atopic asthma vs. non-atopic controls after adjusting for age distribution (adjusted odds ratios, AOR=2.73, 95% confidence interval, CI=1.16–6.64), but was not associated with non-atopic asthma (AOR=2.40, 95% CI=0.81–7.09). LT-α-NcoI*1 did not show an independent association with either atopic asthma or any one phenotype of specific IgE. The synergistic effect between these two genes was conducted, and the interaction between TNF-α-308*2 and LT-α-NcoI*1 polymorphisms was seen for atopic asthma (OR=2.59, 95% CI=1.10–6.10) when compared with all controls.Conclusion We have concluded that TNF-α-308 may be a risk factor for atopic asthma, whereas the LT-α-NcoI polymorphism may modify risk to atopic asthma with TNF-α-308.

    Notes: Aims:  To analyse the clinicopathological findings of extranasal CD56+ cytotoxic T- or NK-cell lymphomas in different organs and to compare Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)+ and EBV– lymphoma of non-blastoid cytomorphology.Methods and results:  Fifty-one cases of cCD3+ T-cell intracellular antigen (TIA-1)+ CD56+ lymphomas of extranodal/extranasal origin were included in the study. The primary sites of the CD56+ tumours were soft tissue (n = 10), the gastrointestinal (GI) tract (n = 13), the skin (n = 15), upper aerodigestive tract excluding nasal and nasopharyngeal regions (n = 11), the testis (n = 1), and parotid gland (n = 1). TCR gene rearrangement was detected in seven of 47 cases examined (16%). EBV was positive in 39 of 51 cases (76%). The positive rate of EBV was higher in tumours of soft tissue (80%), GI tract (92%), and skin (80%), and lowest in the upper aerodigestive tract excluding the nasal and nasopharyngeal region (50%). Tumours of the soft tissue and the upper aerodigestive tract tended to present with localized disease (P = 0.002). The 2-year survival rate was lowest for tumours of the GI tract (P = 0.0256). EBV– TCR– lymphoma showed less necrosis (P = 0.0133) and a better 2-year survival rate (P = 0.0066) than EBV+ TCR– lymphoma. Patients with EBV+ TCR+ lymphomas tended to present with localized disease, more often than EBV+ TCR– lymphoma (P = 0.0186). Significant prognostic factors in all CD56+ lymphomas were the site (P = 0.0256), EBV status (P = 0.0026), necrosis with or without perforation (P = 0.0338) and the presence of pleomorphic large tumour cells (P = 0.0428). Cox's regression analysis adjusting for other pathological parameters showed EBV status to be the only independent prognostic factor (P = 0.018).Conclusions:  Extranodal CD56+ EBV– lymphoma at extranasal sites is a clinically less aggressive malignancy and displays less necrosis than CD56+ EBV+ lymphoma. Because CD56+ EBV+ TCR+ lymphomas show similar pathological and clinical findings to CD56+ EBV+ TCR– lymphomas, nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphomas at extranasal sites should be diagnosed as such on the basis of EBV+, cytotoxic T or NK phenotype irrespective of the genotype determined by molecular study.

    Notes: Lymph nodes in gastric B-cell lymphoma: pattern of involvement and early histological changes Aims: This study aims to analyse the histological pattern of nodal involvement in gastric B-cell lymphoma and to detect early involvement of the lymph nodes. Methods and results: Histological findings of 37 resected primary gastric lymphomas with 1313 regional lymph nodes were analysed. The primary tumour was classified into four groups: MALT lymphoma, MALT lymphoma with a minor large B-cell lymphoma (〈20%), large B-cell lymphoma with MALT lymphoma, and large B-cell lymphoma without MALT lymphoma. Histological patterns of nodal involvement were divided into sinusoidal, subsinusoidal/marginal, follicular, and diffuse patterns. Semi-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis for IgH gene rearrangement was performed. Nodal involvement was found in 2/13 (15%) MALT lymphomas, 5/6 (83%) MALT lymphomas with a minor large B-cell lymphoma, 9/12 (75%) large B-cell lymphomas with MALT lymphoma, and 6/6 (100%) large B-cell lymphomas without MALT lymphoma. The MALT lymphoma and MALT lymphoma with a minor large B-cell lymphoma showed a predominantly sinusoidal and subsinusoidal pattern, whereas diffuse pattern predominated in large B-cell lymphomas without MALT lymphoma and large B-cell lymphomas with MALT lymphoma. The follicular pattern was least common, being observed in 10.2% of large B-cell lymphomas without MALT lymphoma and large B-cell lymphomas with MALT lymphoma. Sinusoidal obliteration with permeation of small monocytoid cells into subsinusoidal zone is a characteristic finding suggesting early nodal involvement of MALT lymphoma. Conclusions: Histological patterns of nodal involvement in gastric B-cell lymphoma vary according to the histological grade. Immunostaining for CD20 with or without PCR analysis for IgH gene rearrangement would be a useful ancillary method to confirm lymphomatous involvement.

    Notes: To examine the relationship of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) to cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), a retrospective study was performed using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded skin biopsies from 1 2 patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. All cases were immunophenotyped with a panel of monoclonal antibodies including CD45RO, CD43, MB-2, CD20, and CD68. En situ hybridization studies to detect the EBV genome were performed, using the EBV-RNA probes for the early RNAs of EBV. namely HBER and BHLF. Among the 1 2 patients, six had primary CTCL. and six had secondary CTCL. The nasal cavity was the most frequent extracutaneous primary site. Immunophenotypically, all of the cases were of the T-cell lineage. In situ hybridization demonstrated a diffuse strong positive reaction for EBV transcripts (KBKR) nuclear RNA in five out of 12 cases (41·7%) and a negative reaction for BHLF nuclear RNA probe in all the cases studied. Angiocentric lymphomas were positive in three out of the five cases (60%) studied. Secondary CTCL had a higher correlation with EBV than did primary CTCL. especially primary nasal T-cell lymphoma with subsequent cutaneous involvement. The EBV genome in lymphoma cells existed in a latently infected form but not in an actively replicating form. Three out t)f the live EBV-positive patients died. 8 months to 4 years after diagnosis. EBV infection alone in the lymphoma does not seem to affect the prognosis of CTCL patients significantly.
