Abstract
Over the last decade, epidemiological studies have discovered a link between hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The regression of HCV-associated NHL after HCV eradication is the most compelling proof supporting HCV infection's role in lymphoproliferative diseases. HBV infection was found to significantly enhance the incidence of NHL, according to the epidemiological data. The exact mechanism of HCV leading to NHL has not been fully clarified, and there are mainly the following possible mechanisms: (1) Indirect mechanisms: stimulation of B lymphocytes by extracellular HCV and cytokines; (2) Direct mechanisms: oncogenic effects mediated by intracellular HCV proteins; (3) hit-and-run mechanism: permanent genetic B lymphocytes damage by the transitional entry of HCV. The specific role of HBV in the occurrence of NHL is still unclear, and the research on its mechanism is less extensively explored than HCV, and there are mainly the following possible mechanisms: (1) Indirect mechanisms: stimulation of B lymphocytes by extracellular HBV; (2) Direct mechanisms: oncogenic effects mediated by intracellular HBV DNA. In fact, it is reasonable to consider direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) as first-line therapy for indolent HCV-associated B-NHL patients who do not require immediate chemotherapy. Chemotherapy for NHL is affected by HBV infection and replication. At the same time, chemotherapy can also activate HBV replication. Following recent guidelines, all patients with HBsAg positive/HBV DNA≥2,000 IU/mL should be treated for HBV. The data on epidemiology, interventional studies, and molecular mechanisms of HCV and HBV-associated B-NHL are systematically summarized in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is a risk factor for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Our recent study suggested that antiviral treatment may reduce the incidence of NHL in CHB patients. This study compared the prognoses of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients receiving antiviral treatment and HBV-unassociated DLBCL patients. METHODS This study comprised 928 DLBCL patients who were treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) at two referral centers in Korea. All patients with CHB received antiviral treatment. Time-to-progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) were the primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. RESULTS Among the 928 patients in this study, 82 were hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive (the CHB group) and 846 were HBsAg-negative (the non-CHB group). The median follow-up time was 50.5 months (interquartile range [IQR]=25.6-69.7 months). Multivariable analyses showed longer TTP in the CHB group than the non-CHB group both before inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]=0.49, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.29-0.82, p=0.007) and after IPTW (aHR=0.42, 95% CI=0.26-0.70, p<0.001). The CHB group also had a longer OS than the non-CHB group both before IPTW (HR=0.55, 95% CI=0.33-0.92, log-rank p=0.02) and after IPTW (HR=0.53, 95% CI=0.32-0.99, log-rank p=0.02). Although liver-related deaths did not occur in the non-CHB group, two deaths occurred in the CHB group due to hepatocellular carcinoma and acute liver failure, respectively. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that HBV-associated DLBCL patients receiving antiviral treatment have significantly longer TTP and OS after R-CHOP treatment than HBV-unassociated DLBCL patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in the gastrointestinal tract. METHODS This study investigated patients (n = 456) with gastrointestinal tract NHL who had been initially treated in our hospital between January 2018 and December 2021. We compared clinical characteristics and prognostic factors according to the anatomic site of involvement and histologic subtypes. RESULTS Gastrointestinal tract involvement was more common in B-cell than T-cell lymphomas (91.7% versus 8.3%). The intestine (n = 237) involvement was more common than the stomach (n = 219). Patients with T-cell lymphoma were more likely to present with advanced disease and B symptoms than B-cell lymphoma. Subgroup survival analysis was conducted for 358 patients whose follow-up time was more than 2 years, we found that T-cell immunophenotype and elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were independent prognostic factors for survival. Patients with advanced disease were identified as risk factors for relapsed or refractory gastrointestinal tract NHL. CONCLUSIONS In our subgroup survival analysis, we found that the survival outcomes demonstrated no significant differences between the stomach and intestinal tract NHL. Serum LDH levels and histologic subtypes were independent prognostic factors for the survival of gastrointestinal tract NHL. Advanced diseases were considered risk factors for relapsed or refractory gastrointestinal tract NHL.

Abstract
Patterns of hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBV-R) in HBsAg (-)/HBcAb (+) patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) receiving rituximab based immunochemotherapy have not been well described. The retrospective study included 222 HBsAg (-)/HBcAb (+) NHL patients as training cohort and 127 cases as validation cohort. The incidence of HBV-R in HBsAg (-)/HBcAb (+) B-cell NHL patients was 6.3% (14/222), of which that in HBsAg (-)/HBsAb (-)/HBeAg (-)/HBeAb (+)/HBcAb (+) population was 23.7% (9/38). Multivariate analysis showed that HBsAg (-)/HBsAb (-)/HBeAg (-)/HBeAb (+)/HBcAb (+) correlated with a high risk of HBV-R in B-cell lymphoma patients (training phase hazard ratio [HR], 10.123; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.389-30.239; p < 0.001; validation phase HR, 18.619; 95% CI, 1.684-205.906; p = 0.017; combined HR, 12.264; 95% CI, 4.529-33.207; p < 0.001). In the training cohort, the mortality rate of HBsAg (-)/HBcAb (+) B-cell NHL caused by HBV-R was 14.3% (2/14) while that for HBV reactivated HBsAg (-)/HBsAb (-)/HBeAg (-)/HBeAb (+)/HBcAb (+) population was up to 44.4% (4/9). As a high incidence of HBV-R and high mortality after HBV-R was found in HBsAg (-)/HBsAb (-)/HBcAb (+)/HBeAg (-)/HBeAb (+) patients with B-cell NHL receiving rituximab based immunochemotherapy, prophylactic antiviral therapy is recommended for these patients.

A novel prognostic nomogram for patients with extragastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma: A multicenter study. Cancer Med 2022; 11:3407-3416.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to explore predictors and construct a nomogram for risk stratification in primary extragastric mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Methods Extragastric MALT lymphoma cases newly diagnosed between November 2010 and April 2020 were assessed to construct a progression‐free survival (PFS)‐related nomogram. We also performed external validation of the nomogram in an independent cohort. Results We performed multivariate analyses of 174 patients from 3 hospitals who were included in the training cohort. Stage, hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) status, and Ki67 expression were significantly associated with PFS. These three factors were used to construct a nomogram, which was shown to have a C‐index of 0.89. Two risk groups (low risk and high risk) were identified by the prognostic model. The 5‐year PFS was 98.9% for the low‐risk group and 69.3% for the high‐risk group (p < 0.001). The overall survival (OS) could also be effectively distinguished by the nomogram, resulting in an OS of 100% for the low‐risk group and 94.6% for the high‐risk group (p = 0.01). These results were validated and confirmed in an independent cohort with 165 patients from another three hospitals. The 5‐year PFS rates were 94.8% and 66.7% for the low‐risk and high‐risk groups, respectively (p < 0.001). The 5‐year OS rates were 97.9% and 88.4%, respectively (p = 0.016). Conclusion The nomogram could well distinguish the prognosis of low‐ and high‐risk patients with extragastric MALT lymphoma and is thus recommended for clinical use.

Abstract
Individuals with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) have worse chemotherapy efficacy and poorer outcomes. It is still unclear whether long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) serve as prognostic and therapeutic targets in the chemotherapy resistance of individuals with DLBCL and HBV infection. Here we found that the core component of HBV (HBX) directly upregulated the expression of lncNBAT1, which was closely associated with the chemotherapy outcomes of HBV-infected individuals with DLBCL. Upregulation of lncNBAT1 reduced the sensitivity of DLBCL cells to chemotherapeutic agents (methotrexate [MTX] or cytarabine [Ara-C]) that induced S phase arrest, whereas knockdown of lncNBAT1 significantly relieved the chemoresistance of HBX-expressing DLBCLs. Mechanistically, lncNBAT1 could interact with the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) to prevent its enrichment at the promoter region of the functional target gene apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3A (APOBEC3A), inhibiting expression of APOBEC3A and inducing resistance to MTX in DLBCL cells. Furthermore, clinical data analysis showed that lncNBAT1 and APOBEC3A expression was closely related to the poor prognosis and short survival of individuals with DLBCL. Our findings suggest a potential prognostic marker and a candidate lncRNA target for treating HBV-infected individuals with DLBCL.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBV-R), which can lead to HBV-related morbidity and mortality, is a common and well-known complication that occurs during the treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients with current or past exposure to HBV infection. HBV-R is thought to be closely associated with chemotherapeutic or immunosuppressive therapies. However, immunosuppressive agents such as anti-CD20 antibodies (e.g., rituximab and ofatumumab), glucocorticoids, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) administered to NHL patients during treatment can cause deep immunodepression and place them at high risk of HBV-R. In this review, we explore the current evidence, the guidelines of several national and international organizations, and the recommendations of expert panels relating to the definition, risk factors, screening and monitoring strategies, whether to use prophylaxis or pre-emptive therapy, and the optimal antiviral agent and duration of antiviral therapy for HBV-R.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Causality between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) was reported in various studies. However, the implication of different virological serum markers of HBV infection in patients with both HBV infection and DLBCL is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of HBV markers on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with both HBV infection and DLBCL. METHODS In this study, patients (n = 40) diagnosed with both HBV infection and DLBCL were identified between 2000 and 2017. Six patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and/or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection were excluded from this study. We retrospectively analyzed patients' demographic characteristics, treatment, and the prognostic impact of different HBV markers at first diagnosis of DLBCL (HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe, and HBV-DNA) on OS and PFS. RESULTS The majority of patients (n = 21, 62%) had advanced disease stage (III/IV) at diagnosis. In the first-line therapy, 24 patients (70%) were treated with R-CHOP regimen (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone). HBeAg positive patients had a trend toward inferior OS and PFS compared with HBeAg negative patients. Anti-HBe positive patients had a statistically significant better OS and PFS compared with anti-HBe negative group (both P < .0001). Viremia with HBV-DNA ≥ 2 × 107 IU/L had a significant negative impact on OS and PFS (both P < .0001). CONCLUSION High activity of viral replication is associated with a poor survival outcome of patients with both HBV infection and DLBCL.

HBV infection potentiates resistance to S-phase arrest-inducing chemotherapeutics by inhibiting CHK2 pathway in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Cell Death Dis 2018; 9:61. [PMID: 29352124 PMCID: PMC5833392 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-017-0097-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2017] [Revised: 10/23/2017] [Accepted: 10/23/2017] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
A considerable number of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients are infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV), which is correlated with their poor outcomes. However, the role of HBV infection in DLBCL treatment failure remains poorly understood. Here, our data demonstrated that HBV infection was closely associated with poorer clinical prognosis independent of its hepatic dysfunction in germinal center B-cell type (GCB type) DLBCL patients. Interestingly, we found that DLBCL cells expressing hepatitis B virus X protein (HBX) did not exhibit enhanced cell growth but did show reduced sensitivity to methotrexate (MTX) and cytarabine (Ara-C), which induced S-phase arrest. Mechanism studies showed that HBX specifically inhibited the phosphorylation of checkpoint kinase 2 (CHK2, a key DNA damage response protein). CHK2 depletion similarly conferred resistance to the S-phase arrest-inducing chemotherapeutics, consistent with HBX overexpression in DLBCL cells. Moreover, overexpression of wild-type CHK2 rather than its unphosphorylated mutant (T68A) significantly restored the reduced chemosensitivity in HBX-expressing cells, suggesting that HBV infection conferred resistance to chemotherapeutics that induced S-phase arrest by specifically inhibiting the activation of CHK2 response signaling in DLBCL.

High prevalence of hepatitis B virus infection in patients with aggressive B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in China. Ann Hematol 2017; 97:453-457. [PMID: 29188315 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-017-3188-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2017] [Accepted: 11/16/2017] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
We retrospectively analyzed a large study to investigate the association of hepatitis B virus (HBV) with aggressive B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (aggressive B-NHL) in China, where HBV is endemic. HBV was present in 39 aggressive B-NHL patients (10.46%), 13 indolent B-NHL patients (5.09%), 12 multiple myeloma (MM) patients (3.67%), and 5 solitary plasmacytoma (SP) patients (6.67%). HBV infection was significantly associated with increased risks for aggressive B-NHL (P < 0.01). HBV seems to have a very important role in the pathogenesis of aggressive B-NHL in China.

Abstract
The association of HBV infection with other hematopoietic diseases has been discussed previously. However, the clinical significance and clinical outcomes of HBV infection in AA patients have not been clarified. In this study, we sought to investigate the prevalence and related events of HBV in patients with AA who received immunosuppressive therapy. We retrospectively analyzed 245 patients with acquired AA. The HBsAg positivity rate was 14.69% in this group of AA patients. No significant difference was observed in the severity of AA patients with HBV infection and in those without (P = 0.6358). HBV reactivation occurred in 4.76% of HBsAg-positive patients who received ATG/ALG + CsA treatment without anti-viral prophylaxis. HBV-infected patients who received CsA alone did not develop reactivation. Patients with HBV reactivation showed favorable clinical outcomes, with no HBV-related deaths. There was no significant difference in overall probability of survival in patients with different HBV infection status (P = 0.8617). Given the low rate of reactivation and favorable outcomes after reactivation in AA patients, close monitoring of HBV DNA, hepatic function and patient immune status may be a more effective approach than routine prophylaxis for AA patients with HBV infection undergoing ATG/ALG + CsA treatment. Further studies are warranted to clarify the optimal time to initiate anti-viral treatment.

Hepatitis B virus-associated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: unique clinical features, poor outcome, and hepatitis B surface antigen-driven origin. Oncotarget 2016; 6:25061-73.

Abstract
While the epidemiologic association between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is established, little is known more than this epidemiologic evidence. We studied a cohort of 587 patients with DLBCL for HBV infection status, clinicopathologic features, and the immunoglobulin variable region in HBV surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive patients. Eighty-one (81/587, 13.8%) patients were HBsAg-positive. Compared with HBsAg-negative DLBCL, HBsAg-positive DLBCL displayed a younger median onset age (45 vs. 55 years), more frequent involvement of spleen or retroperitoneal lymph node (40.7% vs. 16.0% and 61.7% vs. 31.0% respectively, both p < 0.001), more advanced disease (stage III/IV: 76.5% vs 59.5%, p = 0.003), and significantly worse outcome (2-year overall survival: 47% versus 70%, p < 0.001). In HBsAg-positive DLBCL patients, almost all (45/47, 96%) amino acid sequences of heavy and light chain complementarity determining region 3 exhibited a high homology to antibodies specific for HBsAg, and the majority (45/50, 90%) of IgHV and IgLV genes were mutated. We conclude that 13.8% of DLBCL cases are HBV-associated in HBV-endemic China and show unique clinical features and poor outcomes. Furthermore, our study strongly suggests that HBV-associated DLBCL might arise from HBV antigen-selected B cells.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the correlation between serum levels of Golgi protein 73 (GP73) and antiviral efficacy of entecavir (ETV) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) to evaluate the value of GP73 in monitoring the progression and outcome of CHB.
METHODS: A total of 483 CHB patients were included, and 63 healthy persons were used as controls. Serum levels of GP73 were detected by ELISA, and liver tissues were collected from 51 CHB patients for detecting GP73 expression by immunohistochemical staining. The correlation between serum GP73 concentrations and GP73 expression in liver tissues was examined. One hundred and eighty-three CHB patients received ETV antiviral treatment for more than 1 year, and serum GP73 concentrations were determined before treatment and 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 after treatment.
RESULTS: In patients with chronic HBV infection, serum GP73 level was significantly higher than that of the healthy control group (F = 191.60, P = 0.000). With the progression of the disease, serum GP73 concentration continued to significantly rise (P = 0.000). Serum GP73 levels were positively correlated with severity of chronic HBV infection (r = 0.576, P = 0.000). With the increase of GP73 expression in liver tissue, serum GP73 concentrations also increased simultaneously (F = 7.285, P = 0.01). Serum GP73 concentration was positively correlated with the expression of GP73 in liver tissues (r = 0.592, P = 0.00). In 186 CHB patients treated with ETV for more than 1 years, with the recovery of the disease, serum GP73 concentrations significantly decreased, and there was a significant difference between before and after treatment (P = 0.005).
CONCLUSION: Serum GP73 levels are closely related to the disease progression of chronic HBV infection. The decrease of serum GP73 concentration in the course of ETV antiviral therapy suggests that the liver inflammatory injury is relieved. Serum GP73 can be used to monitor the prognosis of patients with chronic liver disease.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have attracted many attentions in lymphoma diagnostic research. The inconsistence of diagnostic performance in these existed literatures leading us to conduct this meta-analysis. In order to have a scientific and reliable study, all related articles were screened from Medline, Embase, CNKI and other databases. The sensitivity and specificity of each involved research were used to plot the summary receiver operator characteristic (SROC) curve and calculate the area under the curve (AUC). The QUADAS-2 tool was applied to estimate the quality of included studies. In addition, Deeks' funnel plot asymmetry test was performed to estimate publication bias. Overall, 14 studies from 6 articles were included to evaluate the whole test performance. The overall pooled results were as follows: sensitivity was 0.91 (95% CI: 0.83-0.95), specificity was 0.84 (95% CI: 0.75-0.90), the AUC was 0.93 (95% CI: 0.91-0.95), positive likelihood ratio-PLR was 5.5 (95% CI: 3.5-8.8), negative likelihood ratio-NLR was 0.11 (95% CI: 0.06-0.21), and diagnostic odds ratio-DOR was 50 (95% CI: 19-128). In summary, results from meta-analysis showed that miRNAs analysis might significantly increase the diagnostic accuracy of lymphoma. Further massive prospective studies still needed to validate our conclusion before clinical application.

Abstract
Reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) following rituximab (R)-containing chemotherapy for lymphoma is a major concern, and risk factors remain to be defined. We enrolled 190 patients diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and resolved hepatitis B, receiving first-line R-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisolone)-based regimens. Twenty-seven patients (14.2%) developed HBV reactivation during a median follow-up of 23.6 months. Two independent risk factors were identified: cycles of rituximab>8 (hazard ratio [HR], 2.797; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.184-6.612) and lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR)<2.50 (HR, 2.733; 95% CI, 1.122-6.657). Two-year overall survival in patients with or without HBV reactivation was 53.8% vs. 77.6% (p=0.025). Regarding the negative impact on clinical outcome, patients at "super high risk" of HBV reactivation, including those receiving more than eight cycles of R and having low LMR at diagnosis, may warrant first priority for antiviral prophylaxis.

Abstract
China is a highly endemic area of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, especially in Guangdong and Guangxi, where HBV infection rate is significantly higher than those in other cities. Lymphoma is one of the most common malignant tumors with unknown etiological agents and complex pathogenesis, and its incidence has markedly increased in recent decades. Epidemiological investigations find that the HBV infection rate in patients with lymphoma is significantly higher than that in patients with solid tumors other than primary hepatic carcinoma and in general population. This paper summarizes the recent progress in understanding the correlation between HBV and lymphoma.
