ALK-positive large B-cell lymphomas with cryptic SEC31A-ALK and NPM1-ALK fusions.
We report 2 ALK-positive large B-cell lymphoma cases showing granular cytoplasmic and cytoplasmic/nuclear ALK immunostaining in which cryptic ALK rearrangements were identified by fluorescent in situ hybridization and molecular analysis. In the first case, the ALK-involving t(2;3)(p23;q27) masked the cryptic SEC31A-ALK fusion generated by an insertion of the 5' end of SEC31A (4q21) upstream of ...
متن کاملALK-Positive Plasmablastic B-Cell Lymphoma with Expression of the NPM-ALK Fusion Transcript: Report of Two Cases
2 ABSTRACT While most ALK-positive Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) are of T-cell lineage, a small number of B-lineage tumors with plasmablastic morphology and expression of the full-length ALK protein have been described in the literature. All of these reported tumors lacked the NPM-ALK fusion transcript. There is controversy regarding the existence of ALK fusion-positive B-cell NHL, many investiga...

While most anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) are of T-cell lineage, a small number of B-lineage tumors with plasmablastic morphology and expression of the full-length ALK protein have been described in the literature. All of these reported tumors lacked the NPM-ALK fusion transcript. There is controversy regarding the existence of ALK fusion-positive B-cell ...
متن کاملIdentification of a novel fusion, SQSTM1-ALK, in ALK-positive large B-cell lymphoma.
ALK-positive large B-cell lymphoma is a rare subtype of lymphoma, and most cases follow an aggressive clinical course with a poor prognosis. We examined an ALK-positive large B-cell lymphoma case showing an anti-ALK immunohistochemistry pattern distinct from those of 2 known ALK fusions, CLTC-ALK and NPM-ALK, for the presence of a novel ALK fusion; this led to the identification of SQSTM1-ALK. ...
متن کاملAnaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma with the variant RNF213-, ATIC- and TPM3-ALK fusions is characterized by copy number gain of the rearranged ALK gene
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma is characterized by 2p23/ALK aberrations, including the classic t(2;5)(p23;q35)/NPM1-ALK rearrangement present in ~80% of cases and several variant t(2p23/ALK) occurring in the remaining cases. The ALK fusion partners play a key role in the constitutive activation of the chimeric protein and its subcellular localization. U...
