A retrospective review of 54 patients treated for primary and secondary OAL between Jan 2012 and Jan 2019 was made. Epidemiologic data, clinical characteristics of the tumor and recurrence free survival rates were evaluated. Patients with ocular adnexal lymphoma included 27 (50%) women and 27 (50%) men, with a mean age of 60.38±15.36 (range: 18-93) years at the time of presentation. Mean follow-up time was 40.88±20.75 (range 1-84) months. Histopathological diagnosis was extranodal marginal zone lymphoma in 75.9%, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in 14.8%, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma in 5.6%, mantle cell lymphoma in 1.9% and follicular cell lymphoma in 1.9% of patients. Among 54 patients with OAL 66.7% had orbital, 22.2% had conjunctival, 5.6% had orbital plus conjunctival, 3.7% had orbital plus conjunctival and choroidal, 1.9% had conjunctival plus choroidal involvement. No recurrences were observed in 87.1% of patients during their follow-up. Our data indicates patient epidemiologic presentation of a single center.","PeriodicalId":38991,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80749026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metformin may show this effect by increasing SIK1 and SIK2 gene expression. For this purpose, MCF-7 cells cultured in appropriate media were divided into 8 groups (1) control, (2) 10 ng/mL TGF- β 1, (3) 1.25 mM Metformin, (4) 2.5mM Metformin, (5) 20mM Metformin, (6) 1.25 mM Metform-in+10 ng/ml TGF- β 1, (7) 2.5mM Metformin+10 ng/ml TGF- β 1 and (8) 20mM Metformin+10 ng/ml TGF- β 1 doses were administered, respectively. PCR was performed for SIK1 and SIK2 genes, with GAPDH being the reference gene. Application of 10 ng/ml TGF- β 1 to MCF-7 cell significantly increased expression level of SIK1 mRNA by 1.6 fold. In non-invasive (TGF- β 1 not administered) MCF-7 cell, 2.5 mM and 20 mM metformin increased expression levels of SIK1 mRNA by 1.8, 3.4 fold and SIK2 mRNA by 1.6 and 3.3 fold respectively. In invasive (TGF- β 1 administered) MCF-7 cell, 1.25, 2.5 and 20 mM metformin increased expression levels of SIK1 mRNA by 3.5, 3.7, 4 fold; and SIK2 mRNA by 1.9, 2.4, 3.5 fold, respectively. Metformin increased SIK1 and SIK2 gene expression dose-dependently in non-invasive and invasive MCF-7 cells, more significantly in invasive ones. The increase in the SIK1 gene was greater than in SIK2. In the light of these results, investigating the effects of metformin on SIK1 and SIK2 genes in different TGF- β 1 sensitive cancer types may open new doors for cancer treatment.","PeriodicalId":38991,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73515994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional longitudinal study was implied on 1500 patients younger than 20-years old diagnosed with any malignancy and admitted at MAHAK Pediatric Cancer Treatment and Research Center (MPCTRC) from 2007 to 2014.
