Correlation between miR-320d and prognosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma / 白血病·淋巴瘤

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the expression of miR-320d in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL),and its correlation with prognosis of DLBCL.Methods Sixty cases of DLBCL with the follow-up data were collected from Shanxi Cancer Hospital,and were examined by immunohistochemical EnVision method for CD3,CD10,CD20,bcl-6 and Mum-1.The DLBCL were classified into germinal center B cell-like (GCB) and non-germinal center B cell-like (non-GCB) subtypes according to Hans' algorithm.Agilent Human miRNA Microarray 16.0 was used to select the miRNAs on 24 cases paraffin-embedded tissue of DLBCL.The expression levels of miR-320d in 62 cases were examined by TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction.Eleven cases of reactive hyperplasia of lymph node were selected as control.Results In 62 cases of DLBCL,22 cases (35.5 ％) were GCB and 40 cases (64.5 ％) were non-GCB subtypes.The expression of miR-320d in GCB was 3.43 times as much as non-GCB subtypes (P =0.034),and in reactive hyperplasia of lymph node it was 5.65 times as much as in DLBCL (P ＜ 0.001).The low expression groups of miR-320d was significantly correlated with shorter overall survival (P =0.021).Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis (including the IPI scores) revealed that the down-regulated miR-320d was the independent predictor in DLBCL (RR =2.434,95 ％ CI 1.148-5.159,P =0.020).Conclusions The down-regulated expression of miR-320d might be considered as a distinct subgroup with poor prognosis.
