Abstract
A 53-year-old man who had a history of ulcerative colitis (UC) for 2 years underwent colonoscopy as regular follow-up. The results showed an elevated lesion in the descending colon, which was diagnosed as plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) based on pathological findings. In situ hybridization for the Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA probe was positive. Fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed rearrangement of the MYC gene. He had been taking prednisolone, 5-aminosalicylic acid, azathiopurine, and ustekinumab at the diagnosis of PBL and had multiple prior therapies for UC including infliximab, tacrolimus, and tofacitinib due to steroid dependence. PBL is a rare aggressive B cell lymphoma initially described in the oral cavity of human immunodeficiency virus positive patients and it is suspected to have an association with immunocompromised status of patients. The number of cases of PBL in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients is extremely rare. All these patients were administered immunosuppressive therapy including thiopurines or biologics. IBD patients with immunosuppressive therapy have a higher potential for developing lymphoproliferative disorders. Clinicians should be aware of the risk of lymphoma, including PBL.

Abstract
A 62-year-old male was diagnosed as AFP-producing gastric cancer with lymph node metastases and multiple liver metastases. He was treated with S-1 and CDDP combination chemotherapy. At the end of the first course, both primary and metastatic lesions were remarkably decreased in size, and the serum AFP level was also decreased. The chemotherapy was effective against the cancer and led to a partial response (PR) according to the RECIST guideline. Following the nine months of PR, the primary lesion which had once nearly disappeared, emerged again. Because distant lymph node metastases and liver metastases were considered to have disappeared, distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy was performed. The patient received S-1 monotherapy for 6 months after the operation. At present the patient has achieved progression-free survival for 1 year and 3 months after the operation. Though AFP-producing gastric cancer is known for its poor prognosis, combination treatment such as operation or hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy may improve the prognosis in patients with advanced AFP-producing gastric cancer when systemic chemotherapy is effective.

Abstract
To compare the affinity to lectin of human chorionic gonadotropins (hCG) from pregnant women and trophoblastic tumour patients, a small amount of urine was fractionated by a lentil lectin (LcH) affinity chromatography. The LcH-bound fractions were eluted with 2% mannoside solution, and each fraction was assayed for hCG activities by radioimmunoassay. In pregnant women, more than 90% of hCG immunoactivity in urine was bound to the LcH column and eluted from it, whereas 8 to 26% and 37 to 51% of the activity were not adsorbed to the affinity column and were recovered in the LcH-unbound fraction in the patients with hydatidiform mole and choriocarcinoma, respectively. These results suggest that LcH affinity chromatography of urinary hCG contributes to differential diagnosis between pregnancy and trophoblastic tumours. To characterize the properties of hCG from the urine of choriocarcinoma patients, with or without the LcH affinity, hCG activities in both LcH-unbound and LcH-bound fractions were measured by in vivo and in vitro bioassays and each of the activities was compared with the activities measured by radioimmunoassay. The results showed that the LcH-unbound fraction contained hCG molecules defecting to induce the biological activity of hCG in vivo.
