title: Gene inactivation promotes immune escape in DLBCL.
abstract: Major finding: The majority of DLBCLs fail to express cell surface–associated B2M and CD58.
  
  
  METHODS
  DLBCLs evade immune recognition by both CTLs and NK cells.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Immune escape provides selective pressure during lymphomagenesis.
