RESUMO

Non-neoplastic bone marrow disorders are main causes of non-regenerative anemia in dogs. Despite the high incidence of the diseases, their molecular pathophysiology has not been elucidated. We previously reported that Miniature Dachshund (MD) was a predisposed breed to be diagnosed with non-neoplastic bone marrow disorders in Japan, and immunosuppressive treatment-resistant MDs showed higher number of platelets and morphological abnormalities in peripheral blood cells. These data implied that treatment-resistant MDs might possess distinct pathophysiological features from treatment-responsive MDs. Therefore, we conducted transcriptomic analysis of bone marrow specimens to investigate the pathophysiology of treatment-resistant MDs. Transcriptomic analysis comparing treatment-resistant MDs and healthy control dogs identified 179 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway analysis using these DEGs showed that "Wnt signaling pathway" was a significantly enriched pathway. We further examined the expression levels of DEGs associated with Wnt signaling pathway and confirmed the upregulation of AXIN2 and CCND2 and the downregulation of SFRP2 in treatment-resistant MDs compared with treatment-responsive MDs and healthy control dogs. This alteration implied the activation of Wnt signaling pathway in treatment-resistant MDs. The activation of Wnt signaling pathway has been reported in human patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), which is characterized by dysplastic features of blood cells. Therefore, the results of this study implied that treatment-resistant MDs have distinct molecular pathological features from treatment-responsive MDs and the pathophysiology of treatment-resistant MDs might be similar to that of human MDS patients.

RESUMO

A 12-year-old spayed female Dalmatian presented with acute vomiting and anorexia. The clinicopathological and imaging abnormalities included icterus, biliary obstruction, and multiple diffuse splenic hypoechogenic nodules. Cholecystectomy was performed to remove the obstruction, followed by liver biopsy and splenectomy. Histopathological and immunohistology evaluation of the spleen, liver, and gallbladder revealed splenic marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) with gallbladder and hepatic infiltration of neoplastic CD20/CD79α-positive cells. Moreover, we observed clonal rearrangements of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain (IgH) gene in all three tissues. The dog was in good condition without chemotherapy. However, there was progressive elevation of liver enzymes, which could be attributed to neoplastic hepatic infiltration. Chlorambucil and prednisolone were administered until day 108, when the liver enzyme levels normalized. On day 156, the dog developed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the peripheral lymph nodes. Sequence analysis of the clonally rearranged IgH gene revealed that all neoplastic cells in the spleen, gallbladder, and liver at initial presentation, as well as lymph nodes on day 156, possessed the same sequence identity of the amplified IgH fragments. This demonstrated that all neoplastic cells were derived from the same B-lymphocyte clone. The DLBCL was considered to have transformed from the splenic MZL, with gallbladder involvement. In cases of splenic MZL, it is important to consider gallbladder involvement and transformation to DLBCL. Moreover, gallbladder lymphoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of dogs with gallbladder abnormalities. Further studies are warranted to investigate the prognosis of splenic MZL.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: DNA methylation analysis might identify prognostic CpG sites in CHOP-treated dogs with multicentric high-grade B-cell lymphoma (MHGL) with heterogenous prognosis. OBJECTIVE: To identify prognostic CpG sites of MHGL through genome-wide DNA methylation analysis with pyrosequencing validation. ANIMALS: Test group: 24 dogs. Validation group: 100 dogs. All client-owned dogs were diagnosed with MHGL and treated with CHOP chemotherapy. METHODS: Cohort study. DNA was extracted from lymph node samples obtained via FNA. Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis using Digital Restriction Enzyme Analysis of Methylation (DREAM) was performed on the test group to identify differentially methylated CpG sites (DMCs). Bisulfite pyrosequencing was used to measure methylation status of candidate DMCs in the validation group. Median survival times (MST) were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier (log-rank) product limit method. RESULTS: DREAM analyzed 101 576 CpG sites. Hierarchical clustering of 16 262 CpG sites in test group identified group with better prognosis (MST = 55-477 days vs 10-301 days, P = .007). Volcano plot identified 1371 differentially methylated CpG sites (DMCs). DMC near the genes of FAM213A (DMC-F) and PHLPP1 (DMC-P) were selected as candidates. Bisulfite-pyrosequencing performed on validation group showed group with methylation level of DMC-F < 40% had favorable prognosis (MST = 11-1072 days vs 8-1792 days, P = .01), whereas group with the methylation level combination of DMC-F < 40% plus DMC-P < 10% had excellent prognosis (MST = 18-1072 days vs 8-1792 days, P = .009). CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Methylation status of prognostic CpG sites delineate canine MGHL cases with longer MST, providing owners with information on expectations of potential improved treatment outcomes.

RESUMO

L-Asparaginase (L-Asp) is often used to induce remission in feline large-cell gastrointestinal lymphoma (LCGIL). However, no study has evaluated the efficacy and adverse events following the initial use of this drug as a first-line treatment in feline LCGIL. We retrospectively reviewed medical records of cats with LCGIL treated with L-Asp to induce remission. This study included 43 cats. The response rate (RR) after the first administration of L-Asp was 37.2% (Complete remission: 7.0%, partial remission: 30.2%). RR was significantly higher in cases with primary gastric lesions (64.3%) than in those with primary intestinal lesions (24.1%) (P=0.018), and it was also higher in cases without anemia (57.1%) than those with anemia (15.0%) (P=0.009). The most common adverse event was hyperammonemia, which occurred in 10 of 12 cases where we could compare plasma ammonia concentrations before and after the first dose of L-Asp. Plasma phosphate concentrations were also significantly increased (P<0.001) within 24 hr after the first dose. Decreased appetite, vomiting, and diarrhea were also observed in five, three, and seven cases, respectively, and Grade 3 or higher gastrointestinal signs were observed as adverse events in three cases. The median overall survival of all cats was 150 days (range, 5-1,065 days), and the median progression-free survival was 104 days (range, 2-978 days). In conclusion, L-Asp was effective to induce remission, and severe adverse events were uncommon in feline LCGIL.

RESUMO

Dogs diagnosed with chronic enteropathy (CE) or small-cell lymphoma (SCL) exhibit marked differences in faecal microbiota and organic acid profiles compared with healthy dogs, as well as immune abnormalities in intestinal mucosal tissue. However, few studies have analysed trace organic acids, such as succinic acid, which have been suggested to be associated with IBD in humans. Therefore, in this study, we compared the faecal microbiota and organic acid profiles as well as serum inflammatory markers between dogs with disease (n = 11; 6 with CE and 5 with SCL) and healthy controls (n = 16). We also performed machine learning and correlation analysis to obtain more detailed insights into the characteristics of affected dogs. These results revealed that dogs with CE and SCL had lower levels of Erysipelotrichaceae (e.g. Turicibacter and Allobaculum), exhibited abnormalities in the succinic acid metabolism (i.e. succinic acid accumulation and decreased levels of Phascolarctobacterium as succinic acid-utilising bacteria) and increased levels of pathobiont bacteria such as Escherichia-Shigella. Additionally, the presence of Dubosiella was significantly negatively correlated with Canine Inflammatory Bowel Disease Activity Index scores. These findings are expected to aid the development of microbiome-based medications and/or supplements, although further verification is needed.

RESUMO

Canine gastrointestinal lymphoma is known to be of T-cell origin in most cases, but the molecular biological aberrations have not been clarified. In human intestinal T-cell lymphoma, the mutations in the genes associated with Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway have been frequently observed. In this study, the gene mutations were investigated in 31 dogs with large cell gastrointestinal lymphoma (LCGIL) by focusing on the genes involved in JAK-STAT pathway. Next-generation sequencing analysis to examine the mutations in STAT3, STAT5B, and JAK1 genes throughout the exon regions revealed the mutations in STAT3 gene in two dogs and JAK1 gene in one dog. In conclusion, this study could not indicate the associations of gene mutations in JAK-STAT pathway with LCGIL in most canine cases.
