Chromosomal aberrations are characteristic and specific events; the detection of chromosomal abnormalities often provides information on diagnosis and prognosis of disease. Some patients with large-cell anaplastic lymphoma (Ki 1 lymphoma) have the translocation t(2;5) (p23; q35), involving a possible growth-regulating tyrosine kinase. We found this translocation in 11 patients with Hodgkin's disease of nodular sclerosis and mixed-cellularity types. This finding has implications for the understanding of the relation between large-cell anaplastic lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease, diseases with morphological and immunophenotypical similarities. Study of this translocation may help understanding of the origins of cancer and cancer growth. It also allows a more precise definition of Hodgkin's disease and may be used as an indicator for clonality--which has long been sought.

D000077548 Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase A receptor tyrosine kinase that is essential for development and differentiation of the nervous system in response to secreted growth factors. It phosphorylates the first tyrosine of the Y-x-x-x-Y-Y motif of targets that include PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEINS C-CBL; INSULIN RECEPTOR SUBSTRATE-1; and MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASES, leading to activation of the MAPK signaling pathway and cell proliferation. A chromosomal aberration involving the ALK gene results in its constitutive expression in some cases of NON-HODGKIN LYMPHOMA.

D000199 Actins Filamentous proteins that are the main constituent of the thin filaments of muscle fibers. The filaments (known also as filamentous or F-actin) can be dissociated into their globular subunits; each subunit is composed of a single polypeptide 375 amino acids long. This is known as globular or G-actin. In conjunction with MYOSINS, actin is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscle.
