The Positivity of Phosphorylated STAT3 Is a Novel Marker for Favorable Prognosis in Germinal Center B-Cell Type of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

On the basis of immunohistochemistry, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is categorized as a germinal center B-cell (GCB) or non-GCB subtype. Recent integrated genomic analyses have highlighted the importance of the JAK-STAT3 pathway in the molecular pathogenesis of DLBCL. However, its relevance to clinical outcomes remains controversial. Therefore, we evaluated the extent of the nuclear expression of phosphorylated STAT3 (pSTAT3), a...
