Abstract

The diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease continues to depend upon the finding of Reed-Sternberg cells in an appropriate histological setting. The cellular origin of the Reed-Sternberg cell is, however, controversial, and the relationship of Hodgkin's disease to the "non-Hodgkin" lymphomas remains uncertain. In the last decade techniques derived from basic immunology have added a new dimension to our understanding of the cellular origin of the "non-Hodgkin" lymphomas. Our concepts of Hodgkin's disease may require modification along similar principles.

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

B-Cell Lymphoma

B-cell lymphomas include lymphomas that affect B cells. This subtype of cancer accounts for over 80% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the US. Here is the latest research.
