Title: t(8;14;18): a 3-way chromosome translocation in two patients with Burkitt's lymphoma/leukemia. Author: Liu D, Shimonov J, Primanneni S, Lai Y, Ahmed T, Seiter K. Journal: Mol Cancer; 2007 Jun 04; 6():35. PubMed ID: 17547754. Abstract: Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) is a heterogeneous group of highly aggressive mature B-cell malignancies. It is characterized by a high rate of turnover of malignant cells and deregulation of the c-myc gene. It is typically associated with a t(8;14) translocation. Dual translocation of t(8;14) (c-myc) and t(14;18) (bcl-2) was reported to be associated with extremely poor prognosis. This study reports a novel t(8;14;18) triple translocation in two patients with Burkitt's lymphoma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
