Recurrent abnormalities in immune surveillance-related genes affect the progression of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and modulate the response to therapeutic interventions. CD58 interacts with the CD2 receptor on T cells and NK cells and is recurrently mutated and deleted in DLBCL, suggesting that it may play a role in regulating antitumor immunity. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the genomic characteristics of CD58 through targeted next-generation sequencing, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), whole-exome sequencing, and single-cell RNA-seq in patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL.

OX40 enhances the T-cell activation via costimulatory signaling. However, its molecular characteristics and value in predicting response to immunochemotherapy in DLBCL remain largely unexplored. Here, we performed an integrative analysis of sequencing and multiplex immunofluorescence staining, and discovered abnormally higher expression of OX40 in DLBCL patients.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a biologically and clinically heterogeneous disease that requires personalized clinical treatment. To assign patients into different risk categories, cytogenetic abnormalities and genetic mutations have been widely applied to the prognostic stratification of DLBCL. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that deregulated epigenetic modifications and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) contribute to the initiation and progression of DLBCL.

Purpose: Although the role of tumor-infiltrating T cells in follicular lymphoma (FL) has been reported previously, the prognostic value of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets has not been systematically assessed. Thus, we aim to incorporate T-cell subsets with clinical features to develop a predictive model of clinical outcome.

Methods: We retrospectively screened a total of 1,008 patients, including 252 newly diagnosed FL patients with available peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets who were randomized to different sets (177 in the training set and 75 in the internal validation set).
