Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) is a fast and cost-effective technique to evaluate the expression of many lymphoid markers in mature B-cell neoplasms, including diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which is the most frequent non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In this study, we first characterized by MFC the expression of 27 lymphoid markers in 16 DLBCL-derived cell lines to establish a robust algorithm for their authentication. Then, using the expression profile in DLBCL samples of the genes encoding B lymphoid markers that are routinely investigated by MFC, we built a gene expression-based risk score, based on the expression level of BCL2, BCL6, CD11c, and LAIR1, to predict the outcome of patients with DLBCL. This risk score allowed splitting patients in four risk groups, and was an independent predictor factor of overall survival when compared with the previously published prognostic factors. Lastly, to investigate the potential correlation between BCL2, BCL6, CD11c, and LAIR1 protein level and resistance to treatment, we investigated the response of the 16 DLBCL cell lines to cyclophosphamide, etoposide, doxorubicin, and gemcitabine. We found a correlation between BCL6 overexpression and resistance to etoposide. These results show the interest of MFC for the routine characterization of DLBCL cells and tumors samples for research and diagnostic/prognostic purposes.

We investigated the role of miR-181a in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its potential target genes. miR-181a levels were lower in activated B-cell- (ABC-) like DLBCL cells than that in germinal center B-cell- (GCB-) like DLBCL cells. Overexpression of miR-181a in ABC-like DLBCL cell lines (OCI-LY10 and U2932) resulted in G0/G1 cell cycle arrest, increased apoptosis, and decreased invasiveness. miRNA target prediction programs (miRanda, TargetScan, and miRDB) identified caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 11 (CARD11) as a putative miR-181a target. CARD11 mRNA and protein levels were higher in the ABC-like DLBCL than that in GCB-like DLBCL. Moreover, CARD11 mRNA and protein levels were downregulated in the OCI-LY10 and U2932 cell lines overexpressing miR-181a. Dual luciferase reporter assays confirmed the miR-181a binding site in the CARD11 3′UTR region. OCI-LY10 and U2932 cells transfected with a CARD11 expression vector encoding miR-181a with a mutated binding site showed higher CARD11 protein levels, cell viability, G2/M phase cells, and invasiveness compared to those transfected with a wild-type CARD11 expression vector. Nude mice xenografted with OCI-LY10 cells with overexpressed wild-type miR-181a generated smaller tumors compared to those with overexpressed mutated binding site of CARD11 3′UTR and miR-181a. These results indicate that miR-181a inhibits ABC-like DLBCL by repressing CARD11.
