IgG4-related disease is a recently proposed clinical entity with several unique clinicopathological features. A chronic inflammatory state with marked fibrosis, which can often be mistaken for malignancy, especially by clinical imaging analyses, unifies these features. Little is known about lymphomagenesis in the context of IgG4-related disease, we recently first reported the ocular adnexal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas arising from IgG4-related disease. To the best of our knowledge, no existing study has ever established the neoplastic potential of IgG4-producing cells. In the present report, we describe the first IgG4-producing lymphoma. The patient was a 72-year-old male who was being followed for an asbestos-related pleural plaque. During follow-up, computed tomography revealed bilateral renal masses and multiple swollen retroperitoneal lymph nodes. A retroperitoneal lymph node biopsy was performed. Histologically, the interfollicular areas were expanded by medium to large plasmacytoid cells. These plasmacytoid cells showed nuclear pleomorphism and had prominent Russell bodies. Immunohistochemistry and double immunofluorescence staining of these cells revealed IgG4 positivity and monotypic lambda-light chain predominance. A portion of these cells were partially positive for CD20, negative for CD3, and somewhat faintly positive for CD138. In addition, serum IgG4 was elevated. Southern blot analysis of the lymph node specimen detected immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement. The present study indicates that, not only can malignant lymphomas occur in the setting of IgG4-related disease, but IgG4-producing cells can also be neoplastic.

IgG4-related disease is a recently proposed clinical entity with several unique clinicopathological features. Ocular adnexal IgG4-related disease, however, has not well been clarified. The purpose of the present study was to examine 21 patients (10 men, 11 women; age range, 39-86 years) with ocular adnexal IgG4-related disease. In 17 out of 21 patients (81%), the lacrimal glands were involved and bilateral lacrimal gland swelling was frequently observed (n = 12; 70.6%). In contrast, the conjunctiva was not involved in any of the patient. Histology was uniform with marked lymphoplasmacytic infiltration admixed with dense fibrosis, similar to previous reports of IgG4-related disease. Immunostaining detected numerous aggregates of IgG4-positive plasma cells. Serum IgG4 was higher than normal in 10 of the 13 patients tested, although it was measured after treatment in almost all cases. Interestingly, immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement was detected in two of 17 patients (12%) examined. The present results show that ocular adnexal IgG4-related disease has uniform clinicopathology: that is, disease involving the bilateral lacrimal glands with lymphoid hyperplasia and fibrosis, but not the conjunctiva. And presence of immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement suggests the possibility of B-cell lymphoma arising in a background of IgG4-related chronic inflammation.

Background: Follicular lymphomas occasionally arise in the extra-nodal organs and are frequently found in the duodenum. They are often localised tumours with multiple polyps around the ampulla of Vater.
Aims: To examine a IgH/bcl-2 hybrid gene and VH gene to investigate the nature of the lymphoma cells and how they differ from nodal follicular lymphomas and MALT lymphomas.
Methods: Of 40 patients reported previously, 35 with duodenal follicular lymphoma were studied in detail with respect to clinicopathological characteristics.
Results: 37/40 patients were in clinical stage I (n= 30) or stage II (n= 7). Clonal immunoglobulin gene rearrangement was detected in 53.3% of examined cases, and rearrangement of IgH/bcl-2 gene at the major break point was detected in 27% of cases. Three of 8 examined cases were VH4 (38%); 2 out of them were VH4-34. As VH4 deviation is one of the common characteristics of MALT lymphomas and 2/3 were identical, duodenal follicular lymphomas have a similar aetiology to MALT lymphomas. Clinical course was also similar to that of MALT lymphomas.
Conclusions: Results suggest that duodenal follicular lymphomas have intermediate characteristics of MALT lymphomas and nodal follicular lymphomas.

The present patient was diagnosed as having human herpes virus-8 (HHV-8)/Kaposi sarcoma herpes virus (KSHV)-negative and CD20-positive primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) of the right-sided pleural effusion. After pleural drainage, malignant cells disappeared spontaneously in a small amount of the remaining pleural effusion without chemotherapy. The patient was treated with six cycles of chemotherapy consisting of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone. He has been in complete remission for more than 22 months. It is suggested that effusion drainage followed by chemotherapy containing rituximab is a potential treatment strategy for patients with HHV-8/KSHV-negative and CD20-positive PEL.

The high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), originally identified as an architectural nuclear protein, exhibits an inflammatory cytokine- like activity in the extracellular space. Here we show that treatment with neutralizing anti- HMGB1 monoclonal antibody ( mAb; 200 mu g, twice) remarkably ameliorated brain infarction induced by 2- h occlusion of the middle cerebral artery in rats, even when the mAb was administered after the start of reperfusion. Consistent with the 90% reduction in infarct size, the accompanying neurological deficits in locomotor function were significantly improved. Anti- HMGB1 mAb inhibited the increased permeability of the blood- brain barrier, the activation of microglia, the expression of TNF-alpha and iNOS, and suppressed the activity of MMP- 9, whereas it had little effect on blood flow. Intracerebroventricular injection of HMGB1 increased the severity of infarction. Immunohistochemical study revealed that HMGB1 immunoreactivity in the cell nuclei decreased or disappeared in the affected areas, suggesting the release of HMGB1 into the extracellular space. These results indicate that HMGB1 plays a critical role in the development of brain infarction through the amplification of plural inflammatory responses in the ischemic region and could be an outstandingly suitable target for the treatment. Intravenous injection of neutralizing anti- HMGB1 mAb provides a novel therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke.
