Project description:We performed array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and gene expression profiling in 203 samples of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). By gene expression, at least three molecular subtypes of DLBCL termed as germinal center B cell-like (GCB) DLBCL, activated B cell-like (ABC) DLBCL, and primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma (PMBL) can be distinguished. Combining gene expression profiling and aCGH, revealed copy number abnormalities that had strikingly different frequencies in the three molecular DLBCL subtypes. These data provide genetic evidence that the DLBCL subtypes are distinct diseases that utilize different oncogenic pathways. Keywords: clinical history design The retrospective study included RNA and DNA extracted from 203 clinical samples.
Project description:We performed DNA methylation (HELP array) and gene expression profiling in 69 samples of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). First, by gene expression, two molecular subtypes of DLBCL termed as "germinal center B cell-like" (GCB) and "activated B cell-like" (ABC) DLBCL were assigned to the 69 DLBCL cases. Then, the supervised analysis using HELP data revealed strikingly different DNA promoter methylation patterns in the two molecular DLBCL subtypes. These data provide epigenetic evidence that the DLBCL subtypes are distinct diseases that utilize different oncogenic pathways. The retrospective study included RNA and DNA extracted from 69 clinical samples. This submission represents the gene expression component of the study.
