Accurate Classification of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma into Germinal Center and Activated B-Cell Subtypes Using a Nuclease Protection Assay on Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded Tissues
2 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
Classification of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) into cell-of-origin (COO) subtypes based on gene expression profiles has well-established prognostic value. These subtypes, termed germinal center B cell (GCB) and activated B cell (ABC) also have different genetic alterations and overexpression of different pathways that may serve as therapeutic targets. Thus, accurate classification is essential for...
