Vav‐1 expression correlates with NFκB activation and CD40‐mediated cell death in diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma cell lines
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive malignancy with a variable response to therapy. We have previously shown that DLBCL cell lines differ in their susceptibility to CD40-mediated cell death, and that resistance to CD40-targeted antibodies correlated with increased expression of markers of immature B-cell and absence of Vav-1 mRNA. We used gene expression profiling to investigate the mechanism of CD40 resistance in these cell lines, and found that resistance correlated with lack of Vav-1 and inability to activate NFκB upon CD40 ligation. Analysis of tissue microarrays of 213 DLBCL cases revealed that Vav-1 expression correlated with a higher proliferative index and the presence of the post-germinal centre marker Irf-4. Our results suggest that Vav-1 expression may be associated with activated B-cell DLBCL origin and higher proliferative activity, and indicate Vav-1 as a potential marker to identify tumours likely to respond to CD40-targeted therapies.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
