Pathogenesis of Mantle-Cell Lymphoma: All Oncogenic Roads Lead to Dysregulation of Cell Cycle and DNA Damage Response Pathways
9 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
Mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL) is a well-defined subtype of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (B-NHL), accounts for approximately 6% of all lymphoid neoplasms, and has a median survival of 3 to 4 years. The genetic hallmark of MCL is the chromosomal translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) that leads to deregulation and upregulation of Cyclin D1, an important regulator of the G1 phase of the cell cycle. This genetic event is...
