Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a well defined B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by a translocation that juxtaposes the BCL1 gene on chromosome 11q13, which encodes cyclin D1 (CD1), next to the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene promoter on chromosome 14. The resulting constitutive overexpression of CD1 leads to a deregulated cell cycle and activation of cell survival mechanisms. In addition, the gene which encodes GST-n, an enzyme that has been implic… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
