Abnormal rearrangement within the α/δ T-cell receptor locus in lymphomas from Atm-deficient mice
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Atm-deficient mice (Atm(-/-)) recapitulate many aspects of the ataxia telangiectasia (AT) syndrome, including the susceptibility to tumors of lymphoid origin. To investigate the mechanism of tumorigenesis, we have examined a panel of 8 thymic lymphomas from Atm(-/-) mice. All Atm(-/-) tumors are of thymic lymphoblastoid origin, display an immature CD3(-) and CD4(+)/CD8(+) phenotype, and arise coincident with...
