With 40% of all b-cell lymphoma diffuse large b-cell-lymphoma (DLBCL) can be regarded as a heterogeneous disease, characterized by varied genetic lesions and different prognosis. We have examined the prognostic influence of the SCF-ubiquitin-ligase component cks1b using immunohistochemistry, Kaplan-Meier-curves and correlation-studies. High protein-expression of cks1b (Cut-off-value=0,37) has significantly been associated with a worse prognosis and elevated protein-levels of ki67, c-myc and skp2. A coherence between high cks1b-expression and c-myc amplification or translocation couldn`t be verified. Furthermore, there has been no linear correlation between the cks1b-expression and clinical prognosis, especially because patients with protein-expression of more than 62% of cks1b again clinical benefit have shown. In conclusion, prognostic stratification of patients with DLBCL with regard to their cks1b-protein-expression does not seem to be sufficient.
