- Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common lymphoma subtype and is clinically aggressive. To identify genetic susceptibility loci for DLBCL, we conducted a meta-analysis of 3 new genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and 1 previous scan, totaling 3,857 cases and 7,666 controls of European ancestry, with additional genotyping of 9 promising SNPs in 1,359 cases and 4,557 controls. In our multi-stage analysis, five independent SNPs in four loci achieved genome-wide significance marked by rs116446171 at 6p25.3 (EXOC2; P = 2.33 x 10(-21)), rs2523607 at 6p21.33 (HLA-B; P = 2.40 x 10(-10)), rs79480871 at 2p23.3 (NCOA1; P = 4.23 x 10(-8)) and two independent SNPs, rs13255292 and rs4733601, at 8q24.21 (PVT1; P = 9.98 x 10(-13) and 3.63 x 10(-11), respectively). These data provide substantial new evidence for genetic susceptibility to this B cell malignancy and point to pathways involved in immune recognition and immune function in the pathogenesis of DLBCL.

- Enantioselective deprotonative metalations of substituted ferrocenes using mixed lithium-metal bases are described. Using N,N-diisopropylferrocenecarboxamide as substrate, magnesium, iron, cobalt, zinc, and cadmium were tested as metals in bis[(S)-1-phenylethyl]amido-based combinations; after interception of the metalated species with iodine, very high enantiomeric excess (96?%) but low yield was obtained with cobalt, whereas zinc and cadmium only gave 27 and 30?%?ee, respectively, but in excellent yields. The small alkyl groups methyl and ethyl were identified as particularly suitable in the reaction using the putative dialkyl bis[(S)-1-phenylethyl]amido-based lithium and dilithium zincates. The dimethyl dilithium zincate was selected for a study of dependency on the temperature, reaction time, and amount of base. Increased enantioselectivities with temperature, reaction time, and amount of base were noted (ee = 86?% at 0 degrees C after 2 h, 2 equiv. of base). The best result using methyl ferrocenecarboxylate as substrate was observed without alkyl ligand.
