Research progress of double-hit diffuse large B-cell lymphoma / 白血病·淋巴瘤

ABSTRACT

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a heterogeneous group of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.An uncommon subset with myc and either bcl-2 or bcl-6 rearrangement,also known as ‘double-hit’ lymphomas,is considered very aggressive clinical course and poor prognosis despite high-intensity chemotherapy.Recently,these lymphomas have received increased attention.This review explores the existing literatures for the involved genes with their functions,clinical features,diagnosis and treatment.
