Abstract The activated B-cell-like (ABC) subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) correlates with poor prognosis. The ABC subtype of DLBCL is associated with constitutive activation of the NF-kB pathway and oncogenic lesions have been identified in its regulators including CARD11/CARMA1...

The mutation status of genes involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway in splenic marginal zone lymphoma was examined. DNA sequence analysis of four genes was performed: CD79A, CD79B, CARD11, and MYD88 that are activated through BCR signaling or Toll-like and interleukin signaling. A single point mutation was detected in the CD79B gene (Y196H) in one of ten SMZL cases. Additionally, one point mut...

BackgroundTumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is crucial for tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis; however, its relationship with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) unknown. Traditional predictive models screen biomarkers that are too general infrequently associated genes.MethodsRNA sequencing data of LUAD patients immune-related gene sets were retrieved from public databases. Using the commo...

Multiparameter flow cytometry analysis and specific cluster differentiation (CD) molecules were used to determine the expression profiles of B- and T-cell antigens on lymph node preparations from 59 dogs with generalized or multisystemic lymphoma. Lymph node samples from 11 healthy dogs were labeled to validate the specificity of antibodies and to formulate guidelines for interpretation of the ...

Materials and methods This work describes an antibody panel (CD117, CD3, CD79a, CD45, cytokeratin, vimentin and E-cadherin) for immunohistochemistry analyses of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of canine cutaneous round cell tumours. Neoplastic tumours were diagnosed by histology and histochemical staining and included 89 mast cell tumours, 31 cutaneous histiocytomas, 21 cutaneous lym...

BACKGROUND Flow cytometry of lineage markers is useful in the classification of leukemias. Our aim was to assess whether the study of lineage genes at the RNA level would enable differentiation of acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) from B-and T-lineage acute lymphoid leukemias (ALLs). METHODS We measured mRNA of four lineage markers [CD19, CD79a, CD3e, and myeloperoxidase (MPO)] by reverse transc...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Although most patients with classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (CHL) are cured, a significant minority are refractory to treatment. The investigation of biological markers could improve the predictive capacity of clinical staging systems. The aim of our study was to detect B-cell differentiation markers and transcription factors in CHL in order to define subgroups with diffe...

OBJECTIVE To provide evidence that lymphomatoid keratosis should be categorized as an epidermotropic subtype of cutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia. DESIGN Clinicopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular biological studies of epidermotropic and dermal bandlike infiltrates of lymphocytes without necrotic keratinocytes, Civatte bodies, or Max-Joseph spaces and solar lentigo or seborrheic ker...
