2015, Clinical Microbiology and InfectionCitation Excerpt :The therapeutic implications are logical. A specific antimicrobial treatment may be indicated, as exemplified by H. pylori-associated MALT lymphoma [15,38,39]. This line of reasoning applies to any other antigen-driven lymphoma for which antigen eradication is expected to decrease lymphoid proliferation, although the clinical benefit of microbial eradication remains to be fully established for most other types of antigen-driven lymphoma.

2009, Clinical Microbiology and InfectionCitation Excerpt :The gastric mucosa of approximately 50% of the world’s population is infected with Helicobacter pylori, and infection levels exceed 70% of the population in developing areas, such as Latin America and Africa [1–3]. Helicobacter pylori infection is closely associated with the occurrence of peptic ulcers, gastric cancer, and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma [4–6]. However, there are geographical regions where the prevalence of H. pylori infection does not correlate with the incidence of gastric cancer.
Primary cystic lung light chain deposition disease: a clinicopathologic entity derived from unmutated B cells with a stereotyped IGHV4-34/IGKV1 receptor
2008, BloodCitation Excerpt :This fact in addition to the notion of persistent antigenic stimulation leads us to draw a parallel between IPSID and cystic lung LCDD, although there are no IG tissular deposits in IPSID. Of note, therapeutic trials have demonstrated that IPSID48 as well as gastric49,50 and cutaneous MALT lymphomas51,52 at an early stage can be cured with antibiotics alone. Similarly, interferon-α2b treatment in patients with splenic marginal zone lymphoma who are infected with HCV leads to regression of the lymphoma.53
