Abstract: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)is a common type of adult lymphoma with high heterogeneity and different clinical and pathological features.Although some DLBCLs are curable,the management of refractory and relapsed patients remains challenging.In recent years,epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation have become a research hotspot of DLBCL.Gene mutations regulating methylation modification and methylation modification of tumor suppressor genes play a key role in the pathogenesis and prognosis of DLBCL.This paper reviews the research progress of DNA methylation in DLBCL.

Key words: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, DNA methylation, Epigenetics, Targeted therapy
