Discovery and validation of immune-associated long non-coding RNA biomarkers associated with clinically molecular subtype and prognosis in diffuse large B cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive and complex disease characterized by wide clinical, phenotypic and molecular heterogeneities. The expression pattern and clinical implication of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) between germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) and activated B-cell-like (ABC) subtypes in DLBCL remain unclear. This study aims to determine whether lncRNA can serve as predictive biomarkers for subtype classification and prognosis in DLBCL.

Methods

Genome-wide comparative analysis of lncRNA expression profiles were performed in a large number of DLBCL patients from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), including GSE31312 cohort (N = 426), GSE10846 (N = 350) cohort and GSE4475 cohort (N = 129). Novel lncRNA biomarkers associated with clinically mol
