Abstract excerpt
Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (EMZL) are thought to develop from reactive infiltrates that represent immune responses to external or auto-antigens. Except for gastric EMZL, the antigenic triggers of EMZL development are mostly unknown, although a subset of cutaneous EMZL have been associated with Borrelia burgdorferi infections. To further evaluate whether a common antigen may be promoting the...
