This study aimed to investigate the value of PTEN, NF-κB, WWP2, p53 and c-Myc expressions in distinguishing B cell lymphomas from reactive follicular hyperplasia (RFH), and their abilities to discriminate different B cell lymphoma subtypes. Lymphoma tissue samples were obtained from 30 follicular lymphoma (FL) patients, 30 germinal center B-cell like (GCB) diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients, 30 non-GCB DLBCL patients and 30 Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) patients. And hyperplasia tissue samples were obtained from and 30 RFH patients. Immunohistochemistry was used to quantify the expressions of PTEN, NF-κB, WWP2, P53 and c-Myc. PTEN expression was elevated in GCB DLBCL and BL compared with RFH, and in GCB DLBCL, non-GCB DLBCL and BL than that in FL; WWP2 expression was higher in FL, GCB DLBCL, non-GCB DLBCL and BL compared with RFH; p53 expression increased in non-GCB DLBCL compared with RFH, and in BL compared with RFH, FL or GCB DLBCL; c-Myc expression was higher in GCB DLBCL, non-GCB DLBCL and BL compared with RFH; c-Myc expression was elevated in GCB DLBCL, non-GCB DLBCL and BL compared with FL. Additionally, PTEN negatively correlated with p53 expression in FL and CGB DLBCL, whereas NF-κB negatively correlated with WWP2 in GCB DLBCL, but positively associated with PTEN in RFH and c-Myc in BL. PTEN, WWP2, p53 and c-Myc expressions might be served as biomarkers for identification of B cell lymphomas from RFH as well as distinguishing different B cell lymphoma subtypes.
本研究旨在探讨PTEN、NF-κB、WWP2、p53和c-Myc表达在鉴别B细胞淋巴瘤与反应性滤泡增生(RFH)中的价值,及其区分不同B细胞淋巴瘤亚型的能力。从30例滤泡性淋巴瘤(FL)患者、30例生发中心B细胞样(GCB)弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤(DLBCL)患者、30例非GCB DLBCL患者和30例伯基特淋巴瘤(BL)患者中获取淋巴瘤组织样本。并从30例RFH患者中获取增生组织样本。采用免疫组织化学法对PTEN、NF-κB、WWP2、P53和c-Myc的表达进行定量分析。与RFH相比,GCB DLBCL和BL中PTEN表达升高,且GCB DLBCL、非GCB DLBCL和BL中的PTEN表达高于FL;与RFH相比,FL、GCB DLBCL、非GCB DLBCL和BL中WWP2表达更高;与RFH相比,非GCB DLBCL中p53表达增加,与RFH、FL或GCB DLBCL相比,BL中p53表达增加;与RFH相比,GCB DLBCL、非GCB DLBCL和BL中c-Myc表达更高;与FL相比,GCB DLBCL、非GCB DLBCL和BL中c-Myc表达升高。此外,在FL和CGB DLBCL中PTEN与p53表达呈负相关,而在GCB DLBCL中NF-κB与WWP2呈负相关,但在RFH中与PTEN呈正相关,在BL中与c-Myc呈正相关。PTEN、WWP2、p53和c-Myc表达可能作为鉴别RFH来源的B细胞淋巴瘤以及区分不同B细胞淋巴瘤亚型的生物标志物。
