PG - 291-302 LID - S2152-2650(23)00015-0 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.clml.2023.01.003 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a highly aggressive type of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma, of which approximately 90% of the cases are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In recent years, the incidence of PCNSL has significantly increased in women and older men. Although advanced treatments such as high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) and targeted agents have been introduced, the prognosis of these patients remains poorer than those with other forms of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. METHODS: Twelve cases of Chinese PCNSL were analyzed to detect their genetic alterations using whole-exome sequencing (WES). We identified 448 potential somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs) with a median of 12 SNVs per PCNSL sample and 35 small indels with potentially protein-changing features in 9 PCNSL samples. RESULTS: We found that myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MYD88) had the highest mutation frequency, which affected the activity of the nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) pathway. PCNSL samples with low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1B (LRP1B) mutations had a higher mutation rate than samples with wild-type LRP1B. Polycystic kidney and hepatic disease 1 (PKHD1), the causal gene of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD), was identified in 2 PCNSL cases and exhibited missense mutations. Pathway analysis revealed enrichment in pathways associated with central carbon metabolism in cancer, renal cell carcinoma, nicotine addiction, bladder cancer, and long-term depression. CONCLUSIONS: WES revealed significantly mutated genes associated with the molecular mechanisms of PCNSL, which could serve as therapeutic targets to improve patient outcomes. CI - Copyright (c) 2023.
