Proteins encoded by genes involved in chromosomal alterations in lymphoma and leukemia: clinical value of their detection by immunocytochemistry
15 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
Acquired chromosomal anomalies (most commonly translocations) in lymphoma and leukemia usually result in either activation of a quiescent gene (by means of immunoglobulin or T-cell-receptor promotors) and expression of an intact protein product, or creation of a fusion gene encoding a chimeric protein. This review summarizes current immunocytochemical studies of these 2 categories of oncogenic protein, with...
