RÉSUMÉ
Russell bodies (RBs) are round eosinophilic intracytoplasmic inclusions formed by condensed immunoglobulins in mature plasma cells, which are called Mott cells. These cells are rarely found in the gastric tract, with even less cases reported in the colorectal region. There are still many questions about this event, as it is still unknown the relationship between the agents reported of increasing the probability of appearance of these cells and the generation of RBs. In this case report we describe the fifth patient presenting an infiltration of Mott cells in a colorectal polyp, being the second case with a monoclonal origin without a neoplastic cause, and the first one monoclonal for lambda. A comparison with previously similar reported cases is also done, and a possible etiopathogenic hypothesis proposed. (AU)
Los cuerpos de Russell (RB) son inclusiones intracitoplasmáticas eosinofílicas redondas formadas por inmunoglobulinas condensadas en las células plasmáticas maduras, que se denominan células de Mott. Estas células rara vez se encuentran en el tracto gástrico, y son aún más infrecuentes en la región colorrectal. Actualmente hay muchas dudas sobre este evento, ya que se desconoce la relación entre los agentes causantes de aumentar la probabilidad de aparición tanto de estas células como de la de RB. En este caso describimos al quinto paciente con un pólipo colorrectal, localizado en el tracto colorrectal e infiltrado por células de Mott, siendo el segundo caso de origen monoclonal sin causa neoplásica y el primero monoclonal para lambda. También se hace una comparación con casos similares previamente reportados y se propone una hipótesis etiopatogénica. (AU)

Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (autoHSCT) is a treatment option for hematological disorders and pediatric solid tumors. After an autoHSCT, natural killer (NK) cells are the first lymphocyte subset returning to normal levels. To uncover global changes during NK cell reconstitution after autoHSCT, we performed RNA-sequencing on NK cells before and after autoHSCT. Results showed profound changes in the gene expression profile of NK cells immediately after autoHSCT. Several biological processes including cell cycle, DNA replication and the mevalonate pathway were enriched. Significantly, we observed that following autoHSCT, NK cells acquired a decidual-like gene expression profile, including the expression of CD9. By using multiparametric flow cytometry, we confirmed the expansion of NK cells expressing CD9 immediately after autoHSCT, which exhibited higher granzyme B and perforin expression levels than CD9- NK cells. These results provide insights into the physiopathology of NK cells during their reconstitution after autoHSCT.
