They are malignancies that develop from lymphoid cells. Selenium can modulate the expression of multiple cellular signaling pathways leading to decreased inflammatory gene expression. Objectives: To determine the relationship between selenium intake and inflammatory markers in newly-diagnosed patients with B-cell NHL. Materials and Methods: Newly-diagnosed patients with B-cell NHL and healthy age- and sex-matched controls were recruited at the Hematology Department of Tlemcen Medical Centre University (Algeria Northwest) for a retrospective case-control study. Results: Dietary selenium intake was significantly decreased in patients than in controls, and was significantly correlated with high C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and serum protein electrophoresis patterns. Additionally, oxidant/antioxidant balance was altered in patients. Conclusion: The reduction of selenium intake induces the synthesis of CRP during the acute phase response in B-cell NHL. Additionally, oxidative stress biomarkers and multi-serum proteomic models may be used for diagnosis and prognosis of the disease.
