Orderable Test Description
FOX P1 (Forkheadbox-P1) is a transcription factor widely expressed in normal tissues. Its expression is commonly deregulated in malignancies. FOX P1 is differentially expressed in resting and activated B cells. FOX P1 expression has been demonstrated in a subset of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) and is more common in the non-germinal center (non-GC), activated B-cell type. Loss of FOX P1 expression has been correlated with a poor prognosis in solid tumors, such as breast cancer. In contrast, high level expression of smaller isoforms of the FOX P1 protein identifies high risk patients with DLBCL. The study demonstrated a correlation between strong nuclear positivity and poor prognosis in a subset of patients with BCL2-positive, [t(14;18)]-negative, non-GC DLBCL.
