We found t(14;18)(q32;q21), with breakpoints in IGH and MALT1, in one testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and in two diffuse large B-cell lymphomas of the breast.
We investigated p16 gene methylation and mutation in a large series of untreated cases of pulmonary MALT lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBL), and correlated p16 gene alterations with a MALT lymphoma-specific API2-MALT1 fusion and the clinicopathologic features of MALT lymphoma.
