|---|---|
| Immunostain in short | |
 PAX5 staining in a classical Hodgkin's lymphoma | |
| Abbreviation | PAX5 |
| Use | B-cell marker, weakly positive in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma |
| Subspeciality | hematopathology |

| Positive | B-cell lymphoma, classical Hodgkin's lymphoma |
Paired box gene 5, commonly known by the abbreviation PAX5, is a immunostain used in hematopathology.
Tumours with positive staining
- B-cell lymphomas
- Hodgkin lymphoma
- typically weak in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma
- strong in nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's lymphoma
Negative staining
- Plasmablastic neoplasms
