Abstract excerpt
An invariant genetic lesion in mouse plasmacytomas is deregulated expression of c-myc as a consequence of chromosomal translocation. However, retroviral and transgenic studies suggest that additional genetic lesions may contribute to the genesis of plasmacytomas. The p53 tumor suppressor gene is a likely contributor to this genetic lesion, since there is a high incidence of p53 mutation in Burkitt's lymphomas and...
