Extracavitary primary effusion lymphoma in a post-transplantation patient

Although gaseous molecules travel at tremendous speeds (hundreds of meters per second), they collide with other gaseous molecules and travel in many different directions before reaching the desired target. At room temperature, a gaseous molecule will experience billions of collisions per second. The mean free path is the average distance a molecule travels between collisions. The mean free path increases with decreasing pressure; in general, the mean free path for a gaseous molecule will be...

Local anesthetic thoracoscopy (LAT) is essential for diagnosing recurrent, undiagnosed pleural effusion when a guideline-based workup fails to provide a specific cause. LAT can be performed as a day-case procedure by chest physicians. Here, we present a step-by-step approach for a successful and safe...

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a difficult to treat B cell disorder and it is equally difficult to establish a xenograft mouse model of primary MCL to study and develop therapeutics. Here, we describe the successful establishment of MCL xenografts in mice to help understand its underlying...

Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cells. The isolation of neutrophils from human blood by density gradient separation method and the differentiation of human promyelocytic (HL60) cells along the granulocytic pathway are described here; to test their role on sensitivity of lymphoma cells to anti-lymphoma agents.

This protocol provides a detailed description of the generation, culture, and analysis of mantle cell lymphoma in 3D printed hydrogel tumor...

Here we present refined surgical procedures on successfully performing intraportal islet transplantation, a clinically relevant but technically challenging surgical procedure, in...
