Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma

These findings suggest the follicular microenvironment may provide survival advantages to malignant T cells while promoting a dysregulated anti-tumor immune response. These observations provide insight into the mechanisms underlying the more aggressive clinical features of FMF versus CMF.

However, the patient relapsed within a few months and needed to be treated with methotrexate. This example highlights the importance of careful clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical testing for timely HMF detection as well as the need for vigilant monitoring to effectively manage recurrences.

This case highlights the importance of considering MF in patients presenting with tissue eosinophilia or Langerhans cell infiltration, even when initial biopsies lack definitive features.

We also identify novel mechanisms by which GATA-3 and CDK9 regulate rRNA transcription and processing, respectively, collaboratively promoting ribosome biogenesis. Therefore, CDK9 is a therapeutic vulnerability across genetically and transcriptionally diverse T-cell lymphomas, including those for which GATA-3 is oncogenic.

Conclusion This study highlights the importance of the IHC of c-MYC in diagnosing SPTCL vs. LP. The higher percentage of c-MYC-positive atypical cells in SPTCL suggests that this oncoprotein may have a significant involvement in the pathogenesis of SPTCL.

This case series found that JAK2 fusions were seen in aggressive cytotoxic CTCL as well as in T-cell lymphomas with more indolent behavior, possibly representing a precursor lesion to aggressive evolution with age and comorbidities. The prominence of these fusions supports a potentially larger role for JAK2 targeting in patients with early-stage MF, CD30-positive LPD, or overlap presentations.

This case highlights bexarotene as a promising therapeutic option for refractory pcALCL. Our experience reinforces the potential of bexarotene as a viable treatment for pcALCL, particularly in recurrent or refractory cases where conventional therapies are contraindicated or ineffective.

Therefore, the in vivo chick embryo metastasis model may serve as a valuable preclinical tool for identifying novel anti-tumor targets in CTCL. The OX-40 axis was identified as a key driver of CTCL progression, promoting tumor growth and metastasis through ERK activation while validating the chick embryo model as a preclinical tool for therapeutic testing.
