Primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphomas account for 1.9-3% of all brain tumors, with the majority being histologically classified as primary large B-cell lymphoma of the CNS (PCNS-LBCL). PCNS-LBCL is characterized by mature germinal center-exit B cells, and most cases of this phenotype are classified as activated B-cell-like phenotype according to gene expression profiling, or as non-germinal center B-cell-like phenotype (non-GCB type) according to Hans's algorithm.

The cancer driver mutation L265P MyD88 is found in approximately 30 % of cases in the activated B cell-like subgroup of diffuse large B cell-like lymphoma (ABC DLBCL). L265P MyD88 forms a complex with TLR9 and IgM, referred to as the My-T-BCR complex, to drive proliferation. We here show that the B cell surface molecules CD19 and CD20 enhance proliferation mediated by the My-T-BCR complex.

There has been remarkable progress over the past 80 years since Jan Waldenstrom first described patients with a hyperviscosity syndrome related to IgM paraprotein in 1944. The definition of Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) has evolved from a clinical syndrome to a distinct clinicopathologic entity with characteristic morphology, immunophenotype and molecular features. The landmark discovery of MYD88 mutation among most WM cases in 2012 marked the dawning of an era of molecular genomic exploration that led to a paradigm shift in clinical practice.

CD5 expression is seen in 5%-10% of de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs). Primary large B-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system (PCNS-LBCL) also exhibits CD5 expression in a minority of cases, however, clinicopathological and molecular features remain largely unclarified. Here we present the clinical, molecular, and pathological features of 11 CD5-positive () PCNS-LBCL cases, occupying 6.
