The prognostic value of hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in diffuse large B cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: In our investigation, we examined biochemical parameters and identified hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH) as a significant predictor for diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. A group of 100 patients was used to explore potential biomarkers related to progression-free survival (PFS). Subsequently, an independent cohort of 404 patients from a separate hospital was recruited to validate our findings. Our results revealed a strong association between elevated HBDH levels and poor PFS. Furthermore, although overexpression of LDHB, but not LDHA, was notably linked to poorer outcomes, HBDH expression emerged as a more robust predictor of clinical prognosis compared to LDH expression. Our investigations, which included metabolic and genetic pathway enrichment analyses, indicated that
