Plasma long non-coding RNAs as biomarkers for bone marrow infiltration and stage in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to evaluate the expression profiles of five circulating lncRNAs (HOTAIR, MALAT-1, XIST, SNHG15, and H19) in DLBCL patients and explore potential associations between their expression and different clinicopathological features. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), exhibits marked genetic and clinical heterogeneity, emphasizing the need for improved tools for risk stratification. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) emerged as regulators in different cellular processes and have been linked to cancer pathogenesis. Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to evaluate lncRNA expression in the plasma of 65 newly diagnosed adult DLBCL patients and 30 age-matched controls. HOTAIR expression was significantly elevated in DLBCL patients, while SN
