11q Deletions in Hematological Malignancies

Abstract excerpt

Structural aberrations involving 11q are among the most common aberrations in a number of hematological malignancies. Most of the aberrations, such as translocations and deletions, often harbor a breakpoint at 11q23, which suggests that this region might contain a tumor suppressor gene important for the genesis of lymphoproliferative disorders. Interestingly, deletions are concentrated only in some subtypes of...
