Altered Subcellular Localization of c-Myc Protein Identifies Aggressive B-cell Lymphomas Harboring a c-MYC Translocation

Abstract excerpt

Nearly 100% of Burkitt lymphomas (BLs) and 5% to 8% of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) harbor a balanced translocation involving c-MYC. Although characteristic morphologic and immunophenotypic features can identify BL in most cases, tumors with atypical features are often encountered in clinical practice. Furthermore, no morphologic or immunophenotypic finding can predict an underlying c-MYC translocation...
