Evaluation of a five-gene signature associated with stromal infiltration for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Figure 3 The alteration of hub genes had a potential association with the development of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. A: The gene alterations were conducted in the cBioportal and included missense mutation, amplification, deep deletion, and messenger ribonucleic acid high; B-F: The expressions of alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M) (B), cathepsin B (CTSB) (C), fibronectin (FN1) (D), matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) (E), secreted protein acidic and cysteine-rich (SPARC) (F) were subjected to GEPIA to analyze the gene expression in different stages of DLBCL. ^bP < 0.05 vs stage 1 group.
