Accumulating evidence suggests tumor protein 53 (p53) promotes correct cellular differentiation. Thus, mutant TP53 may be more frequent in tumors with irregular differentiation. This study investigated whether TP53 mutations were more frequent in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that lacked the B cell lineage marker CD19. Sixteen CD19 negative and 78 CD19 positive DLBCL were sequenced for TP53 mutations. Twenty nine tumors had TP53 mutations and were associated with poorer survival. Mutant ...[more]
