Sting Is Commonly and Differentially Expressed in T- and Nk-Cell but Not B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas.

ABSTRACT: The expression patterns of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) were investigated in a cohort of 158 T- and natural killer (NK)-cell and 265 B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs), as well as in control reactive lymph nodes and tonsils. STING expression was assessed by immunohistochemical methods using diagnostic biopsy specimens obtained prior to treatment. Using an arbitrary 10% cutoff, STING was differentially expressed among T/NK-cell NHLs; positive in 36 out of 38 (95%) cases of ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), 23 out of 37 (62%) ALK-ALCLs, 1 out of 13 (7.7%) angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphomas, 15 out of 19 (79%) peripheral T-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified, 20 out of 36 (56%) extranodal NK/T-cell lymphomas of nasal type, 6 out of 7 (86%) T-cell lymphoblastic lympho
