Abstract excerpt
The expression of hTERT and its isoforms is difficult to assess in lymphoma tissues with the commonly used reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods, because non-neoplastic lymphocytes expressing hTERT are always present in the lymphomatous infiltrates. The present study aimed to investigate hTERT mRNA variants in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) (n = 38) with in situ hybridization...
