Most anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL) express oncogenic fusion proteins derived from chromosomal translocations or inversions of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene. Frequently ALCL carry the t(2;5) translocation, which fuses the ALK gene to the nucleophosmin (NPM1) gene. The
Signaling through the Notch1 receptor has a pivotal role in early thymocyte development. Gain of Notch1 function results in the development of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a number of mouse experimental models, and activating Notch1 mutations deregulate Notch1 signaling in the majority of
The Notch2 is a critical membrane receptor for B-cell functions, and also displays various biological roles in lymphoma pathogenesis. In this article, we reported that 3 of 69 (4.3%) diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) exhibited a truncate NOTCH2 mutation at the nucleotide 7605 (G/A) in the cDNA
System A amino acid transport is increased in transformed and malignant cells. The amino acid 4-cis[(18)F]fluoro-l-proline (cis-[(18)F]FPro) has been shown to be a substrate of the System A amino acid carrier. In this pilot study, we investigated the diagnostic potential of cis-[(18)F]FPro in
The tumor suppressor TP53 can initiate a plethora of anti-proliferative effects to maintain genomic integrity under conditions of genotoxic stress. The N-terminal proline-rich domain (PRD) of TP53 is important in the regulation of TP53 activity and stability. A common polymorphism at codon 72 in
Proline/arginine-rich end leucine-rich repeat protein (PRELP) belongs to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family, normally expressed in extracellular matrix of collagen-rich tissues. We have previously reported on another SLRP, fibromodulin (FMOD) in patients with chronic lymphocytic
BCL-6 gene alterations have been observed in 27-45% of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBs) with chromosomal translocations at 3q27. The deregulated expression of normal BCL-6 protein caused by this chromosomal translocation is believed to be responsible for lymphomagenesis. Recently, we
The Runx2 (Cbfa1, Aml3, PEBP2alphaA) gene plays an essential role in bone development and is one of a three-member family of closely related genes that encode the alpha-chain DNA binding components of the heterodimeric core binding factor complex. While all three mammalian Runx genes share a complex
T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphomas commonly demonstrate activating Notch1 mutations as well as mutations or deletions in Fbxw7. However, because Fbxw7 targets Notch1 for degradation, genetic alterations in these genes are expected to be mutually exclusive events in lymphomagenesis. Previously, by
OBJECTIVE
Early diagnosis of cancer is crucial for the success of treatment of the disease, and there is a need for markers whose differential expression between disease and normal tissue could be used as a diagnostic tool. Spontaneously occurring malignancies in pets provide a logical tool for
We analyzed NOTCH1 gene mutation in 53 adults with mature T-cell leukemia/lymphoma: 21 patients with adult T-cell leukemia (ATL), 25 with T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (T-NHL), and 7 with T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia. We detected a nonsense mutation, C7249T (resulting in Q2417X, where X is a
Three isotopic release microtoxicity assays--[125I]5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine release assay (IRA), 51Cr release assay (CRA), and [3H]proline release assay (PRA)--have been utilized to measure cell-mediated immunity to (C58NT)D, a Gross virus-induced lymphoma in rats. These studies were designed so that
OBJECTIVE
This study attempted to identify altered metabolism and pathways related to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and myeloma patients.
METHODS
In this retrospective study, we collected plasma samples from 11 patients-6 healthy controls with no evidence of any blood cancers and 5 patients with
The cytoplasmic tail of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) transmembrane protein gp30 has multiple amino acid motifs that mimic those present in signaling proteins associated with B-cell and T-cell receptors. The proline-rich motif of gp30, PX(2)PX(4-5)P, is analogous to the recognition site of Src
The murine Cas NS-1 retrovirus carries the v-cbl oncogene and induces pro-B, pre-B and myeloid tumors in mice inoculated at birth. The human homolog of v-cbl is located on chromosome 11q23.3, which is in the region of translocation breakpoints in a range of acute leukemias. The sequencing of the
