Two t(14;18)-negative follicular B-non-Hodgkin's lymphomas with the same chromosomal abnormality, dup(12)(q13----qter), are presented. The absence of a BCL2 gene rearrangement was confirmed by molecular studies in both cases. Instead, duplication of a 12q segment was found. Further evidence for the presence of the dup(12)(q13----qter) was found using fluorescence in situ hybridization. dup(12q) may be equivalent to the trisomy 12 originally described in B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia. This chromosome anomaly has also been reported in B-non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, usually in association with other chromosome anomalies and a more aggressive tumor phenotype. Occurrence of dup(12q) in two histologically similar cases of follicular small cleaved-cell lymphoma without a typical t(14;18), suggests that this karyotypic change may play a critical role in some cases of follicle center-cell lymphomas.

D008224 Lymphoma, Follicular Malignant lymphoma in which the lymphomatous cells are clustered into identifiable nodules within the LYMPH NODES. The nodules resemble to some extent the GERMINAL CENTER of lymph node follicles and most likely represent neoplastic proliferation of lymph node-derived follicular center B-LYMPHOCYTES.

D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.
