DLBCL cell lines expressing WT-MYC (U2932), SH (Raji), DHL (LY1, DHL2), and THL (VAL) were treated with varied concentrations of I-BET, JQ1, or OTX015 and then analyzed for survival fraction of cells by excluding annexin V/propidium iodide-stained cells. This evidence concerns the gene DNER and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
