Sumatriptan mitigates bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in male rats: Involvement of inflammation, oxidative stress and α-SMA. Tissue Cell 2024; 88:102349. [PMID: 38492426 DOI: 10.1016/j.tice.2024.102349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fibrotic lung condition that produces symptoms including coughing which may cause by excessive accumulation of scar tissue inflammatory and oxidative stress exacerbation. Sumatriptan, utilized for migraine treatment as a selective 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonist, has demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties in multiple preclinical investigations. Operating primarily on serotonin receptors, sumatriptan leverages the diverse physiological functions of serotonin, playing a pivotal role in regulating both inflammation and oxidative stress which is particularly relevant in the context of IPF. MATERIALS & METHODS Thirty-five male Wistar rats were divided to five group, including: Sham (without IPF induction), control (BLM 5 mg/kg, intraperitoneally), and three fibrosis group with sumatriptan (0.5, 1, and 3 mg/kg, i.p. for 2 weeks) administration. IPF was induced by injection of BLM (single dose, 5 mg/kg intratracheally). Lung tissues were separated for measurement of myeloperoxidase (MPO) as an oxidative stress hallmark, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-β), and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) as inflammatory markers as well as alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Also, for histological investigations, tissue damages were assessed by Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) and Masson's trichrome staining method. RESULTS BLM-induced fibrosis could increase α-SMA, MPO, TNF-α, IL-1β, and TGF-β, while treatment with sumatriptan has reversed the α-SMA, MPO, and IL-1β levels. Moreover, the results of H&E and Masson's trichrome staining indicated that sumatriptan (1 and 3 mg/kg) reduced tissue damages, alveolar wall thickness, collagen accumulation, and pulmonary fibrosis induced by BLM. CONCLUSION According to the data achieved from this study, Sumatriptan appears to have therapeutic benefits in IPF, possibly via reducing α-SMA as well as inflammation and the toxicity caused by oxidative stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a pulmonary fibrotic disease characterized by a poor prognosis, which its pathogenesis involves the accumulation of abnormal fibrous tissue, inflammation, and oxidative stress. Ivermectin, a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptor, exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties in preclinical studies. The present study investigates the potential protective effects of ivermectin treatment in rats against bleomycin-induced IPF. MATERIALS AND METHODS The present study involved 42 male Wistar rats, which were divided into five groups: control (without induction of IPF), bleomycin (IPF-induced by bleomycin 2.5 mg/kg, by intratracheal administration), and three fibrosis groups receiving ivermectin (0.5, 1, and 3 mg/kg). lung tissues were harvested for measurement of oxidative stress [via myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH)] and inflammatory markers (tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α], interleukin-1β [IL-1β], and transforming growth factor-β [TGF-β]). Histological assessments of tissue damage were performed using hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) and Masson's trichrome staining methods. RESULTS The induction of fibrosis via bleomycin was found to increase levels of MPO as well as TNF-α, IL-1β, and TGF-β while decrease SOD activity and GSH level. Treatment with ivermectin at a dosage of 3 mg/kg was able to reverse the effects of bleomycin-induced fibrosis on these markers. In addition, results from H&E and Masson's trichrome staining showed that ivermectin treatment at this same dose reduced tissue damage and pulmonary fibrosis. CONCLUSION The data obtained from this study indicate that ivermectin may have therapeutic benefits for IPF, likely due to its ability to reduce inflammation and mitigate oxidative stress-induced toxicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) is increasing in incidence, due to the use of many new drugs across a broad range of cancers and chronic inflammatory diseases. The presentation and onset of DI-ILD are variable even for the same drug across different individuals. Clinical suspicion is essential for identifying these conditions, with timely drug cessation an important determinant of outcomes. AREAS COVERED This review provides a comprehensive and up-to-date summary of epidemiology, risk factors, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of DI-ILD. Relevant research articles from PubMed and Medline searches up to September 2023 were screened and summarized. Specific drugs including immune checkpoint inhibitors, CAR-T cell therapy, methotrexate, and amiodarone are discussed in detail. The potential role of pharmacogenomic profiling for lung toxicity risk is considered. EXPERT OPINION DI-ILD is likely to be an increasingly important contributor to respiratory disability in the community. These conditions can negatively impact quality of life and patient longevity, due to associated respiratory compromise as well as cessation of evidence-based therapy for the underlying disease. This clinical conundrum is relevant to all areas of medicine, necessitating increased understanding and greater vigilance for drug-related lung toxicity.

Abstract
Nowadays, royal jelly (RJ) has gained great interest as a functional food due to its valuable pharmacological effects. We investigated the therapeutic potency of combined protein fraction (PF50) of major RJ protein 2 and its isoform X1 on bleomycin (Bleo)-induced pulmonary injury in rats. Our study examined the impact of PF50 on pulmonary oxidative and inflammatory stress as well as smooth muscle alpha-actin (α-SMA). In addition, the predicted impacts of this PF on the activity of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)- 8 and 15-prostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) and the E-type prostanoid 2 (EP2) and IL-13 α2 subunit (IL13α2R) receptors, were evaluated using molecular docking. The results showed that PF50 reduced pulmonary inflammatory cells and their secreted pro-inflammatory mediators, including NF-κB, IKK, IL-4, IL-6, and NO. Additionally, the levels of IgE and mucin were diminished after treatment with PF50. Moreover, PF50 treatment improved pulmonary oxidative stress indices such as lipid peroxidation, GSH, SOD, and GPX. The histopathological findings, chest conventional X-ray, and immunohistochemistry of α-SMA confirmed the ameliorating effect of PF50. The docking outcomes reported the probable competitive inhibitory influence of PF50 on MMP-8 and a postulated blocking effect on EP2 and IL13α2R. Thus, PF50 could be a novel approach for treating pulmonary injuries.

Abstract
Photochemical internalization (PCI) is a promising new technology for site-specific drug delivery, developed from photodynamic therapy (PDT). In PCI, light-induced activation of a photosensitizer trapped inside endosomes together with e.g. chemotherapeutics, nucleic acids or immunotoxins, allows cytosolic delivery and enhanced local therapeutic effect. Here we have evaluated the photosensitizer meso-tetraphenyl chlorine disulphonate (TPCS2a/fimaporfin) in a proteome analysis of AY-27 rat bladder cancer cells in combination with the chemotherapeutic drug bleomycin (BML). We find that BLMPCI attenuates oxidative stress responses induced by BLM alone, while concomitantly increasing transcriptional repression and DNA damage responses. BLMPCI also mediates downregulation of bleomycin hydrolase (Blmh), which is responsible for cellular degradation of BLM, as well as several factors known to be involved in fibrotic responses. PCI-mediated delivery might thus allow reduced dosage of BLM and alleviate unwanted side effects from treatment, including pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
The incidence of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) varies by age, most commonly affecting 15-19-year-olds. Cases in children less than 3 years old are exceedingly rare. We report a case of classical HL in an 8-month-old male; the youngest case reported thus far in the literature to our knowledge. Furthermore, while lymphadenopathy is a salient feature of HL, it was absent in our patient, who presented with immunodeficiency and delays in achieving neurologic milestones. A thorough radiologic workup demonstrated bilateral paravertebral masses, collapse of the T3 vertebrae, and severe spinal cord compression. Involvement of the lung, liver, and spleen was also noted. Histopathological evaluation of the paravertebral mass revealed a diagnosis of classical HL. Various non-neoplastic and malignant disorders, such as tuberculosis, Langerhans cell histiocytosis, leukemia, and neuroblastoma, amongst others, could be included in the differential diagnosis of our patient. Using an Illustrative case report, we review the multimodality imaging workup of Hodgkin lymphoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE Balancing disease control and toxicity from chemotherapy and radiotherapy (RT) when treating early-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is important. Available data on long-term toxicity after RT for cHL mostly refer to RT techniques no longer in use. We aimed to describe long-term toxicity from modern limited-field (LF)-RT after two or four cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD). PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included all patients with cHL treated with two or four cycles of ABVD and 30 Gy LF-RT during 1999-2005 in Sweden. Patients (n = 215) and comparators (n = 860), matched for age, gender, and region of residence, were cross-checked against national health registries for malignancies, diseases of the circulatory system (DCS), and diseases of the respiratory system (DRS) from the day of diagnosis of cHL. RESULTS The risk of a malignancy was higher for patients than comparators, hazard ratio (HR) 1.5 (95% CI, 1.0 to 2.4), as was the risk for DCS 1.5 (95% CI, 1.1 to 2.0) and for DRS 2.6 (95% CI, 1.6 to 4.3). The median follow-up was 16 years (range, 12-19 years). Of individual diagnoses in DCS, only venous thromboembolism was statistically significantly elevated. If the first 6 months (ie, time of active treatment for cHL) were excluded and censoring at relapse of cHL or diagnosis of any malignancy, the increased HR for venous thromboembolism diminished. Most of the excess risk for DRS consisted of asthma, HR 3.5 (95% CI, 1.8 to 6.8). Patients diagnosed with DRS were significantly younger than comparators. CONCLUSION Compared with toxicity from earlier RT techniques, excess morbidity was not eliminated, but lower than previously reported. The elevated risk of DRS was driven by diagnosis of asthma, which could in part be explained by misdiagnosis of persisting pulmonary toxicity. Less morbidity in Hodgkin lymphoma treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy fields smaller than involved field![]()

Abstract
Currently, ~95% of patients with testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) are cured, resulting in an increasing number of TGCT survivors. Although cured, these men face potential late adverse effects and reduced quality of life. Survivors face a twofold increased risk of second malignant neoplasms after chemotherapy and radiotherapy, with evidence of dose-dependent associations. For survivors managed with surveillance or treated with radiotherapy, the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is comparable to the risk in the general population, whereas treatment with chemotherapy increases the risk of life-threatening CVD, especially during treatment and after 10 years of follow-up. Other adverse effects are organ-related toxicities such as neuropathy and ototoxicity. Pulmonary and renal impairment in patients with TGCT treated with chemotherapy is limited. Survivors of TGCT might experience psychosocial distress including anxiety disorders, fear of cancer recurrence and TGCT-specific issues, such as sexual dysfunction. Late adverse effects can be avoided in most patients with stage I disease if followed on a surveillance programme. However, patients with disseminated disease can experience toxicities associated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and/or adverse effects related to surgery for residual disease. The severity of adverse effects increases with dose of both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This Review discusses the most recent data concerning the late adverse effects of today's standard treatments for TGCT.

Aminopeptidase Expression in Multiple Myeloma Associates with Disease Progression and Sensitivity to Melflufen. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13071527.

Abstract
Simple Summary The aims of this study were to investigate aminopeptidase expression in multiple myeloma and to identify the aminopeptidases responsible for the activation of the peptide–drug conjugate melflufen in multiple myeloma. We observed a differential expression of aminopeptidases between relapsed/refractory and newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients. A higher expression of the aminopeptidase genes XPNPEP1, RNPEP, DPP3, and BLMH in multiple myeloma plasma cells was associated with shorter patient overall survival. The peptide–drug conjugate melflufen was particularly active towards plasma cells from relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma patients. Melflufen could be hydrolyzed to its active form by the aminopeptidases LAP3, LTA4H, RNPEP, and ANPEP, all of which are expressed in multiple myeloma. These results indicate critical roles for aminopeptidases in disease progression and the activity of melflufen in multiple myeloma. Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by extensive immunoglobulin production leading to an excessive load on protein homeostasis in tumor cells. Aminopeptidases contribute to proteolysis by catalyzing the hydrolysis of amino acids from proteins or peptides and function downstream of the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway. Notably, aminopeptidases can be utilized in the delivery of antibody and peptide-conjugated drugs, such as melflufen, currently in clinical trials. We analyzed the expression of 39 aminopeptidase genes in MM samples from 122 patients treated at Finnish cancer centers and 892 patients from the CoMMpass database. Based on ranked abundance, LAP3, ERAP2, METAP2, TTP2, and DPP7 were highly expressed in MM. ERAP2, XPNPEP1, DPP3, RNPEP, and CTSV were differentially expressed between relapsed/refractory and newly diagnosed MM samples (p < 0.05). Sensitivity to melflufen was detected ex vivo in 11/15 MM patient samples, and high sensitivity was observed, especially in relapsed/refractory samples. Survival analysis revealed that high expression of XPNPEP1, RNPEP, DPP3, and BLMH (p < 0.05) was associated with shorter overall survival. Hydrolysis analysis demonstrated that melflufen is a substrate for aminopeptidases LAP3, LTA4H, RNPEP, and ANPEP. The sensitivity of MM cell lines to melflufen was reduced by aminopeptidase inhibitors. These results indicate critical roles of aminopeptidases in disease progression and the activity of melflufen in MM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bleomycin (BLM) is a chemotherapy drug used to treat cancer, one of which side effects is that it can lead to pulmonary fibrosis (PF). Atractylenoide III (AtrIII), derived from the dried roots of rhizoma atractylodis of compositae, is one of the main active substances of rhizoma atractylodis. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and other effects. This study aimed to investigate whether AtrIII alleviated BLM-induced PF and oxidative stress in rats through the nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2/NQO1,NAD(P)H:quinine oxidoreductase 1/Heme oxygenase-1 (Nrf2/NQO1/HO-1) pathway. METHODS A BLM-induced pulmonary fibrosis model in SD rats was established. The respiratory dynamics were evaluated by using Wholebody flow-through plethysmography. Lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis were observed by Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson staining. Apoptosis was assay by Tunel assay. Inflammatory factors were detected with commercial kits. Expression of mRNAs and proteins were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot, respectively. RESULTS AtrIII (1.2, 2.4 mg/kg) improved the lung injury and lung function in the BLM-induced Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. AtrIII reduced the apoptosis rate and protein expression of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9. AtrIII (1.2, 2.4 mg/kg) decrease the pulmonary fibrosis damage and protein expression transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). AtrIII also down-regulated the levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6), inductible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), while up-regulated the level of IL-10 in peripheral blood serum. Moreover, AtrIII (1.2, 2.4 mg/kg) increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH), while decreased the malondialdehyde (MDA) content and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity. AtrIII (1.2, 2.4 mg/kg) increased the levels of Nrf2, NQO1 and HO-1. In addition, AtrIII reversed the effects of Nrf2 interference on pulmonary fibrosis damage, decreased SOD and GSH activity, and increased MDA content. CONCLUSION AtrIII could attenuate the pulmonary fibrosis and reliev oxidative stress through the Nrf2/NQO1/ HO-1 pathway.

Abstract
Bleomycin hydrolase (BLMH) is a well-conserved cysteine protease widely expressed in several mammalian tissues. In skin, which contains high levels of BLMH, this protease is involved in the degradation of citrullinated filaggrin monomers into free amino acids important for skin hydration. Interestingly, the expression and activity of BLMH is reduced in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis, and BLMH knockout mice acquire tail dermatitis. Apart from its already known function, we have discovered a novel role of BLMH in the regulation of inflammatory chemokines and wound healing. We show that lowered BLMH levels in keratinocytes result in increased release of the pro-inflammatory chemokines CXCL8 and GROα, which are upregulated in skin from AD patients compared to healthy individuals. Conditioned media from keratinocytes expressing low levels of BLMH increased chemotaxis by neutrophils and caused a delayed wound healing in the presence of low-level TNFα. This defective wound healing was improved by blocking the shared receptor of CXCL8 and GROα, namely CXCR2, using a specific receptor antagonist. Collectively, our results present a novel function of BLMH in regulating the secretion of chemokines involved in inflammation and wound healing in human keratinocytes.

Abstract
Bleomycin (BLM) is a chemotherapeutic agent which is associated with Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) due to its chronic administration. Hesperidin, a bioflavonoid has been reported to possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, and antiapoptotic potential. To evaluate the therapeutic potential of hesperidin against BLM-induced pulmonary fibrosis and decipher its possible mechanism of action. Intraperitoneal administration of BLM (6 IU/kg) caused induction of IPF in Sprague-Dawley rats. Rats were treated with hesperidin (25, 50, and 100 mg/kg, p.o.) for 28 days, followed by estimation of various parameters in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung. Hesperidin (50 and 100 mg/kg) administration significantly ameliorated (p < 0.05) alterations induced by BLM in lung index, percent oxygen saturation, serum ALP and LDH levels, BALF differential cell count, and lung function test. Elevated levels of oxido-nitrosative stress, hydroxyproline, and myeloperoxidase levels in BALF and lung were significantly decreased by hesperidin on day 14. Hesperidin significantly inhibited BLM-induced down-regulated lung Nrf2 and HO-1 as well as up-regulated TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, collagen-1, TGF-β, and Smad-3 mRNA expressions. Western blot analysis showed that alteration in lung NF-κB, IκBα, AMPK, and PP2C-α protein expressions were ameliorated by hesperidin on day 28. Furthermore, BLM induced histological and ultrastructural aberrations in the lung which were attenuated by hesperidin treatment. Hesperidin alleviates BLM-induced IPF via inhibition of TGF-β1/Smad3/AMPK and IκBα/NF-κB pathways which in turn ameliorate the modulation of oxido-inflammatory markers (Nrf2 and HO-1) and pro-inflammatory markers (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) to reduce collagen deposition during pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bleomycin pulmonary toxicity (BPT) is a potentially life-threatening consequence of bleomycin usage in patients. An overproduction of epithelium-derived cytokines, habitually linked to allergic inflammation, has been recently revealed in experimental models of BPT. METHODS We assessed retrospectively our cohort of patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma treated with bleomycin between 2014 and 2016 for their demographic, clinical features, including BPT development, atopy status and risk factors for BPT. Then they were invited for allergy testing and blood sample collection. The samples were stimulated with different stimuli (Bleomycin, IL-33, TSLP) for 24 h on cell culture. The culture supernatants were analysed for TGF-β, Galectin3, Arginin, Amphiregulin, Eotaxin, IFNγ, TNFα, IL1β, 4, 5, 6, 10, 13, 17, MIP-1α, and bleomycin hydrolase (BLH) levels. RESULTS The cohort consisted of 51 patients showed that atopy was the only significant risk factor for BPT occurrence (OR: 7.2, p = 0.007). Fourteen subjects were included for blood analysis. The analysis of supernatants at the unstimulated condition revealed that BLH and Amphiregulin were significantly lower in patients who had BPT than controls. The BLH cut-off that best identified a history of BPT was 175.31 (Sensitivity: 62.5%, specificity: 100%). Following the stimulation, BLH reduced compared to the unstimulated condition and the difference between groups remained significant (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our study is the first to report that low levels of bleomycin hydrolase in allergic individuals may be predisposing to a possible pathway of fibrosis.

Abstract
Testicular cancer is one of the most commonly occurring malignant tumors in young men with fourfold higher rate of incidence and threefold higher mortality rates in Chile than the average global rates. Surgery is the initial line of treatment for testicular cancers, and is generally followed by chemotherapy, usually with combinations of bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin (BEP). However, the adverse effects of chemotherapy vary significantly among individuals; therefore, the present study explored the association of functionally significant allelic variations in genes related to the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of BEP and DNA repair enzymes with chemotherapy-induced toxicity in BEP-treated testicular cancer patients. We prospectively recruited 119 patients diagnosed with testicular cancer from 2010 to 2017. Genetic polymorphisms were analyzed using PCR and/or qPCR with TaqMan®probes. Toxicity was evaluated based on the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, v4.03. After univariate analyses to define more relevant genetic variants (p < 0.2) and clinical conditions in relation to severe (III–IV) adverse drug reactions (ADRs), stepwise forward multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. As expected, the main severe ADRs associated with the non-genetic variables were hematological (neutropenia and leukopenia). Univariate statistical analyses revealed that patients with ERCC2 rs13181 T/G and/or CYP3A4 rs2740574 A/G genotypes are more likely to develop alopecia; patients with ERCC2 rs238406 C/C genotype may develop leukopenia, and patients with GSTT1-null genotype could develop lymphocytopenia (III–IV). Patients with ERCC2 rs1799793 A/A were at risk of developing severe anemia. The BLMH rs1050565 G/G genotype was found to be associated with pain, and the GSTP1 G/G genotype was linked infection (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed an association between specific ERCC1/2 genotypes and cumulative dose of BEP drugs with the appearance of severe leukopenia and/or febrile neutropenia. Grades III–IV vomiting, nausea, and alopecia could be partly explained by the presence of specific ERCC1/2, MDR1, GSTP1, and BLMH genotypes (p < 0.05). Hence, we provide evidence for the usefulness of pharmacogenetics as a tool for predicting severe ADRs in testicular cancer patients treated with BEP chemotherapy.

Abstract
Bleomycin is a commonly used cancer therapeutic that is associated with oxidative stress leading to pulmonary toxicity. Bleomycin has been used in animal studies to model pulmonary fibrosis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and pulmonary hypertension secondary to interstitial lung disease. The toxicity with bleomycin is initiated by direct oxidative damage, which then leads to subsequent inflammation and fibrosis mediated by generation of both extracellular ROS and intracellular ROS. While most studies focus on the intracellular ROS implicated in TGFβ signaling and fibrosis, the changes in the extracellular redox environment, particularly with the initiation of early inflammation, is also critical to the pathogenesis of bleomycin induced injury and fibrosis. In this review, we focus on the role of extracellular redox environment in bleomycin toxicity, with attention to the generation of extracellular ROS, alterations in the redox state of extracellular thiols, and the central role of the extracellular isoform of superoxide dismutase in the development of bleomycin induced injury and fibrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hodgkin lymphoma, a highly curable malignancy is currently treated with an adriamycin, bleomycin (BLM), vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) regimen. BLM-induced pulmonary toxicity (BPT) is one of the dose-limiting toxicities. Previous reports have revealed that genetic variants rs1050565, rs11077, and rs1800562 are involved in the development of BPT. These results cannot be extrapolated to the South Indian population because of their ethnic difference. This study aimed to determine the frequency of rs1050565, rs11077, and rs1800562 variants in South Indian healthy individuals and Hodgkin lymphoma cases. These frequencies were compared with 1000 genome populations' data. We also assessed if these variants modified the risk to Hodgkin lymphoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 200 healthy individuals and 101 cases with Hodgkin lymphoma were recruited for this case-control study after ethical approval. Blood samples were collected from the study participants and DNA was extracted. Genotyping of rs1050565, rs11077, and rs1800562 variants was done using real-time polymerase chain reaction. A chi-square test was used to assess the differences in genotype frequency data between cases and controls. RESULTS The minor allele frequencies of rs1050565 and rs11077 were 4.3% and 39%, respectively, whereas all the individuals were wild-type for rs1800562 mutation. The frequencies significantly differed from 1000 genome data. The variants did not alter the risk for Hodgkin lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS We determined the frequencies of rs1050565, rs11077, and rs1800562 variants in South Indian healthy individuals, and the frequencies differed significantly from 1000 genome populations. We also found that the studied polymorphisms are not associated with Hodgkin lymphoma risk in the South Indian population.

Abstract
Background: There is conflicting data about the increased risk of pulmonary toxicity when granulocyte-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is given in combination with bleomycin. No clear consensus for management of patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) who require G-CSF support exists. Our objective was to evaluate whether there is an increase in pulmonary toxicity in patients who receive bleomycin and G-CSF during treatment for HL. Materials and Methods: We conducted a single-center retrospective analysis of patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma from January 2003 until July 2015. All patients who received at least 1 dose of bleomycin and followed at our institution were included. Patients were evaluated for pulmonary toxicity starting from the day of first dose of bleomycin until 1 year after initiation of bleomycin. Data on pre-identified risk factors for pulmonary toxicity were also collected. Results: Fifty-four patients met inclusion criteria. Twenty-one patients received bleomycin alone, and 33 patients received bleomycin and G-CSF. There was no statistically significant (p = 0.50) difference in the development of pulmonary toxicity between the two groups. Crude hazard ratio for development of pulmonary toxicity in the bleomycin and G-CSF cohort was 1.58 (95% confidence interval, CI: 0.41-6.12). On multivariate analysis, the hazard ratio for development of pulmonary toxicity was 1.71 (95% CI: 0.43-6.81). Conclusion: This study does not find evidence that the combination of bleomycin and G-CSF increases the risk for bleomycin- induced pulmonary toxicity. We recommend G-CSF use in HL patients receiving bleomycin when needed to maintain dose intensity.
