First paragraph (this article has no abstract)Diffuse large B cell lymphoma represents a clinically heterogeneous disease, and several immunohistochemical strategies have been shown to help prognosticate clinical outcome. These include subdivision into germinal center (GC) and non-germinal center (non-GC) subtypes, proliferation index (measured by expression of Ki67), and expression of BCL-2, FOXP1 or Blimp-1/PRDM1. We sought to determine whether immunohistochemical analyses of biopsies from DLBCL patients with HIV infection are similarly relevant for prognostication. |
