Abstract

In order to understand how cancer progresses from one stage to the next, researchers have been analyzing the changes in gene expression between stages of various cancers. However, very little of this type of research has been done on diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that affects 18,000 new patients each year. Using gene set omics analysis (GSOA), we analyzed B-cell specific gene expression pathways in consecutive stages of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma to understand if there were specific pathways that changed their expression from one stage to the next.
