Bi-allelic amplification of ATM gene in blastoid variant of mantle cell lymphoma: a novel mechanism of inactivation due to chromoanagenesis?

Abstract Background Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is derived from naïve CD5+ B-cells with the cytogenetic hallmark translocation 11;14. The presence of additional abnormalities is associated with blastoid variants in MCL (BMCL) and confers a poor prognosis. Many of these tumors also show deletion or lo...
