A case of API2-MALT1-positive gastric MALT lymphoma with concomitant diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
API2-MALT1 translocation-positive gastric marginal zone lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is thought to transform to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) rarely. A 69-year-old man presented with epigastralgia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed multiple ulcerations in the stomach. Endoscopic biopsies revealed MALT lymphoma, with Helicobacter pylori infection. The pa...
متن کاملAuto-Ubiquitination-Induced Degradation of MALT1-API2 Prevents BCL10 Destabilization in t(11;18)(q21;q21)-Positive MALT Lymphoma
BACKGROUND The translocation t(11;18)(q21;q21) is the most frequent chromosomal aberration associated with MALT lymphoma and results in constitutive NF-kappaB activity via the expression of an API2-MALT1 fusion protein. The properties of the reciprocal MALT1-API2 were never investigated as it was reported to be rarely transcribed. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Our data indicate the presence of MALT1-API...
متن کاملMALT1 and the API2-MALT1 fusion act between CD40 and IKK and confer NF-kappa B-dependent proliferative advantage and resistance against FAS-induced cell death in B cells.
The most frequently recurring translocations in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, t(11;18)(q21;q21) and t(14;18)(q32; q21), lead to formation of an API2-MALT1 fusion or IgH-mediated MALT1 overexpression. Various approaches have implicated these proteins in nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappa B) signaling, but this has not been shown experimentally in human B cell...
متن کاملAntiapoptotic function of apoptosis inhibitor 2-MALT1 fusion protein involved in t(11;18)(q21;q21) mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma.
t(11;18)(q21;q21) is a characteristic chromosomal translocation in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type lymphoma, and this translocation results in fusion transcript of apoptosis inhibitor 2 (API2), also known as c-IAP2, and MALT translocation gene 1 (MALT1). Although the API2-MALT1 fusion protein has been shown to enforce activation of nuclear factor kappaB signaling, its precise role...
متن کاملSplenic marginal zone lymphoma-like features in API2-MALT1 transgenic mice that are exposed to antigenic stimulation.
Recently, we described a transgenic mouse model to analyze the effect of the API2-MALT1 fusion-protein in vivo. Our results showed that the expression of API2-MALT1 is not sufficient to induce the development of lymphoma masses. Here, we demonstrate that immunization with Freund's complete adjuvant led to the loss of compartmentalization of the splenic white pulp in API2-MALT1 transgenic mice, ...
