Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) is a neoplasm associated with a group of malignancies called AIDs-Defining Malignancies (ADMs) in Human-Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) -patients.
Bone marrow trephines (n=130) with infiltration of Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma of B cell and T-cell type and trephines with reactive lymphoid follicles (n=16) were analyzed immunohistochemically for AID protein.
Additionally, AID expression was seen to differ depending on NHL subtype, with the highest levels of expression seen in those who developed Burkitt's lymphoma.
