The present invention provides diagnostic methods, therapeutic methods, and compositions for the treatment of lymphoma (e.g., a diffuse large B-celllymphoma (e.g., a germinal-center B-cell-like or activated B-cell-like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma). The invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that macrophage biomarkers are useful in methods of identifying, diagnosing, or predicting the therapeutic efficacy of treatment with an anti-CD79b immunoconjugate (e.g., polatuzumab vedotin) and an anti-CD20 antibody (e.g., obinutuzumab or rituximab).
This invention belongs to the field of cell detection technology, specifically involving the application of NR4A1 as an early biomarker for gamma-rayradiation. This invention discovers that in the early stage (2 hours) after gamma-rayradiation, the protein and mRNA levels of NR4A1 are significantly increased, exhibiting a radiationdose-dependent effect. NR4A1 can serve as a 2-hour biomarker for gamma-ray irradiated HeLa cells, allowing for the screening of cells irradiated for 2 hours, differentiating the duration of gamma-ray irradiation, and achieving early diagnosis of cellular gamma-ray radiation.
