Paired-Box 5 Positivity Related to High MIPI Score Predicts Shorter Overall Survival in Mantle Cell Lymphoma Patients

Introduction: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a sub-type of B-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphomas (NHL) that characterized by a heterogenous clinical course and poor prognosis. The transcription factor paired-box 5 (PAX5) is associated with B cell normal differentiation and development. Herein, we aim to explore both the prognostic factors and the role of PAX5 expression in MCL patients from single-center, which can provide theoretical guidance for clinical practice.
