Mutation of the bax gene has been reported previously in lymphoid cell lines. In vitro experiments have shown that alterations in promoter and coding sequences of the gene abolish its apoptosis initiation function, which is considered crucial for tumour development. To assess bax gene mutations in l

The PTEN gene is involved in 10q23 deletions in several types of cancer, including glioma, melanoma, endometrial and prostate carcinomas. The PTEN gene product is a dual-specificity phosphatase with putative tumor suppressor function. Deletions and rearrangements of 10q22-25 have been reported in Ο³5
Chromosomal abnormalities involving 3q27 have recently been associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphomas and, less frequently, with follicular lymphomas. Molecular studies have led to the identification of the BCL-6LAZ-3 gene, located at 3q27 and coding for a putative zinc-finger protein that migh
